#Axiom Space is nearly finished with the first module of its Axiom Station. It plans to attach it to the #ISS in 📆 2027. Before 2030, Axiom will detach that module from the ISS and continue building it out, with a goal of reaching twice the usable volume 📏 of the current station https://www.space.com/space-exploration/international-space-station/will-the-international-space-station-be-replaced-before-its-fiery-death-in-2030

#Axiom Station is designed to look like a boutique #hotel and is expected to launch in 📆 2028. #VoyagerSpace aims to launch its version, called #Starlab, the same year, and #BlueOrigin’s #OrbitalReef #SpaceStation plans to follow in 2030.

While the cost of a stay aboard any of these outposts has not been released, expect ticket 🎫 prices in the tens of millions of dollars at first https://www.technologyreview.com/2026/01/12/1130030/commercial-space-stations-2026-breakthrough-technology/
