The International Space Station is expected to be retired in 2030,

closing a multi-decade chapter for humans in space that has been funded by governments

regardless of the geopolitical strife on Earth.

The next chapter will be commercial. of the geopolitical strife on Earth.

The next chapter will be commercial.

NASA has taken steps to open low-Earth orbit to commerce and private sector innovation,

even doling out some dollars to companies developing their own habitats.

Voyager Space is one such startup,

with its Star Lab one of three projects pre-selected by NASA

to potentially become a commercial successor to the ISS.

Our vision of space stations going forward is there'll be special purpose.

Ours is very much leaning into the lab and on-orbit experimentation part of the market. If you look at the

I assess today, it's about 400 million dollars of research done per year and I'm in the camp that says supply

will create demand not address demand because part of the reason more research isn't done on the

I assess is it's quite difficult and quite long lead time to get experiments set up

astronaut time is also a bottleneck. You have to schedule astronaut time down to,

to you know, 15 minute increments.

And we know this because we're the largest commercial user of the International Space

Station, via our acquisition of Nanorax.

So we know that model extremely well.

So we have the service provider side.

We have optimized hardware side.
