NASA seeks industry proposals for commercial space stations
Original: NASA seeks US industry proposals for commercial space stations
NASA has issued a call for US companies to submit proposals for commercially operated space stations, part of its effort to develop successor destinations as the International Space Station nears the end of its operational life. The agency plans to become a customer of privately run facilities rather than owning its own, with industry partners expected to fund, build and operate the new stations.
Why now: NASA is actively planning the transition from the International Space Station to commercial orbital platforms, and new funding or proposal milestones are drawing attention.
