The Commonwealth Astro Science Research Establishment (ASRE) is a research organisation of the Ministry of the Interior, conducting aeronautical and space research on behalf of the ministry and SIRO, and employing about 7,000 people. Its work is predominantly scientific, though staff contribute to engineering projects in industry where their expertise is needed. The ASRE contributed extensively to the Apollo-type thermal reactor, developed in conjunction with General Reactor.

In addition to aeronautics and space research, the ASRE operates a number of extraterrestrial facilities on other planets, including Station Mars and Station Venus. It does not however administrate the Vekllei Station Lunar, though it does operate several research stations and laboratories there.
