Problem
The decommissioning of the International Space Station (ISS) in the coming years will leave a void in low Earth orbit (LEO) for microgravity research, astronaut missions, and in-space manufacturing. Current options lack the flexibility and commercial focus needed to fully leverage the potential of space-based activities.
Solution
Vast is developing a portfolio of commercial space stations, including Haven-1 and Haven-2, designed to provide infrastructure for a variety of space-based activities. Haven-1, slated for launch in 2026, will serve as a microgravity research and manufacturing platform, as well as a destination for both government and private astronaut missions. Haven-2 is designed as a successor to the ISS, offering increased capacity and capabilities for long-duration missions. Vast aims to provide a human-centric environment with advanced life support systems and ample space for research, development, and manufacturing in microgravity.
Target Audience
Vast's target audience includes government space agencies, private space companies, research institutions, and private astronauts seeking access to low Earth orbit for research, manufacturing, and exploration.
Features
- Haven-1: A single-module space station with a pressurized volume of 80 m3, a 1.1 meter domed window, and Starlink laser terminal connectivity.
- Haven-2: A multi-module space station designed to succeed the ISS, with a pressurized volume of 1160 m3 and 40kW of payload power.
- Support for government astronaut missions, private astronaut missions, and payload missions.
- In-house manufacturing capabilities for key space station components.
- Integration with SpaceX's Falcon 9 launch vehicle and Dragon spacecraft for crew and cargo transport.
- Advanced micrometeoroid and orbital debris (MMOD) shielding.
- Trace contaminant control system to maintain air quality.
- Control Moment Gyroscopes (CMGs) for attitude control.
