Vessel Commerical LEO destinations and other space stations

Attached is a play-around version VAST-03, now with the cupola on the side and some sauna-like interior.
The crew can be shown with [C]. Look back with [E].

Some more wooden benches to it and its the perfect finnish ISS module.

I can't help but compare Haven-1 as a slightly more advanced version of Tiangong 1 and 2

I wonder how they could resupply it?

Has any one done a launch of this thing

 

[francisdrake]

A launch scenario is included. Also Dragon-launch, to bring a crew to Haven-1 station.

Thanks i did see it

you guys might need to think about an EVA for this thing and a front docking port to add more of these together
might be good to add a small back pack to the Space X eva suit

I don't think Vast Space is planning to add any EVA capability to Haven-1 as they're already planning for Haven-2 succeed it and the ISS at the same time

 

[barrygolden]

Just might be fun to do

In case you wonder: "Where have I seen this guy before?"

 

[MarkWatney2015]

Is that freakin Machete? Lmao

Gravitics Aerospace plan to launch their own space station, called Starmax, by 2026 at the earliest.

Axiom made a redesign of their space station this month, and the Power Tower is now gone:

The "Haven" station (VAST) appeared on my feed today. I'm intrigued...

 

[MarkWatney2015]

That's their second planned station by 2028, Haven-2

There was another picture (that I forgot to save...) where there was another module docked to each one here pictured. I was wondering if there was enough of a radiator cross section for adequate cooling.

Now that we have a new Glenn working. I am relooking at the Orbital reef.
The main unit can fit. The power unit maybe. But the solar panels will need to be redone to fit. Any thoughts

New render of the Axiom space station

And it looks like the PMA-2 is no longer required to be relocated as it could be attached to Harmony's nadir CBM port

Assembly sequence HD

More stuff for someone to make? It is interesting that one side has a solar panel and the other radiator?

 

[barrygolden]

I did see a walk through of the VAST factory and they are really cutting metal and testing a mockup as we speak
they plan to fly Haven 1 to help show NASA they could be the supplier to replace the ISS
Might be time to see a HAVEN 2 which will be bigger with 2 docking ports and will use a Falcon Heavy to launch

Axiom Station Update

Attached is an update of the Axiom Station. Recently the configuration was modified, to allow quicker development and faster free-flying capability.
Solar panels and heat radiators were added to the hab modules, while the solar-power tower has been removed.

For the scenarios I try the new HTML-format in the Orbiter-launchpad. Please let me know if it works for you.
Note: The HTML-descriptions only work in Orbiter 2024.
