The launch — which will be shortly followed by a human spaceflight crew — is set for no later than August 2025.
Long Beach-based aerospace company Vast Space and Hawthorne-headquartered SpaceX announced a new partnership and plan to launch the world’s first commercial space station — dubbed Haven-1 — into low-Earth orbit by 2025, according to a Wednesday, May 10 news release.
Haven-1, the space station, will be launched into space by SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket, the release said. Once completed, a SpaceX Dragon spacecraft will fly out the first human flight to dock on the space station — where they’ll stay for up to a month while orbiting Earth. “Haven-1 will initially act as an independent crewed space station prior to being connected as a module to a larger Vast space station currently in development,” the announcement said. “Vast also secured an option with SpaceX for an additional human spaceflight mission to Haven-1.”
