Announcing the Haven-1 and Vast-1 missions to low-Earth orbit. Launched by SpaceX Haven-1 is scheduled to be the world’s first commercial space station and will be visited by a crew of four aboard a Dragon spacecraft during Vast-1 → https://lnkd.in/gHeXw-Zj
Vast CEO, Max Haot, joined The Washington Post Space Reporter, Christian Davenport, for an engaging discussion about the future of the International Space Station and Vast's work in developing the first commercial space station at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce’s 2024 Global Aerospace Summit. As NASA plans to retire the ISS, Vast is ready to partner with companies, government agencies, researchers, and innovators to build upon NASA’s legacy in low Earth orbit and beyond. Exciting advancements in science and technology are unfolding, and we are proud to be playing a role in driving the future of space exploration!
Congratulations to SpaceX and the Polaris Dawn crew on this historic achievement! Another giant leap forward, paving the way for the next era of commercial spaceflight.

Today we hosted Congressman Robert Garcia and his staff for a tour of Vast, where we proudly shared our progress on Haven-1, scheduled to be the world’s first commercial space station. We are privileged to be a member of the Long Beach space community and are grateful for the support of our elected leaders as we embark on a new era of American leadership in low Earth orbit.
Vast’s Vibe Test Lab is crucial for testing Haven Demo and Haven-1 components for dynamic loads experienced during launch to low Earth orbit. With our in-house capabilities, we benefit from rapid response to design changes, accelerated timelines by avoiding outsourcing delays, and seamless integration with engineering and design teams. Our vertically-integrated engineering approach is hardware rich and enhances product quality with a tight design/test feedback loop that will support our development and reliability as we head into long-term production of our commercial space habitats.

Announcing Haven-1 Lab and our Inaugural Partners Redwire Space and YuriToday, we unveiled our plans for the Haven-1 Lab, launching aboard Haven-1 in the second half of 2025. The Haven-1 Lab is set to become the world's first microgravity research, development, and manufacturing platform on a commercial space station. We are also honored to announce that Redwire and Yuri have signed on as our inaugural payload partners, entrusting Vast with their proven technology for this historic mission. Covering a variety of sectors, our partners represent some of the foremost experts in the development of microgravity payloads. Vast’s Haven-1 lab provides a new platform in space for conducting research and expanding cross-sector advancements with the inherent advantages of a crewed environment. We are proud to provide the foundation for that work and honored that our partners have entrusted us with their proven technology. Redwire’s Advanced Space Experiment Processor 4 (ADSEP4) is a fully automated, multi-use processing facility used to conduct a variety of life and physical science research and small-batch biotechnology production in microgravity, with a capacity of up to four sample processing cassettes for pharmaceutical research and manufacturing. Yuri’s ScienceTaxi can accommodate up to 38 experiment units, known as ScienceShells, and will provide scientists with a powerful tool for studying the effects of microgravity on various biological systems, enabling a wide range of experiments to be conducted in the Haven-1 Lab. Stay tuned for more updates as we prepare for this groundbreaking journey! https://lnkd.in/gaqrdmvC
