The ScienceSim senate is the self-governance mechanism of the various organizations that comprise the 10,000 by 10,000 ScienceSim grid.
By following the instructions on the this site, you can create an isolated ScienceSim server, thereby creating your own world. This will allow you high performance methods of modeling and bringing in outside data. A next step might be affiliating your world in ScienceSim, by having a presence as an isolated 5×5 plaza on the ScienceSim grid. A final step might be petitioning to be part of the ScienceSim mainland, where it is much easier to move from one organization to the next, where you are literally at the core of the ScienceSim community.
We have weekly senate meetings, covering ScienceSim administration and status.
