The sting of Indian Space Technology rings worldwide. This is the reason why an American space company Waste, who plans to launch the world’s first commercial space station next year, has shown interest in using Indian rockets to take members of the crew to their orbital laboratory. According to PTI news, Waste CEO Max Hot met the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) leadership team during the Global Space Conference to discuss possible cooperation in the field of space technology.
Waste is in the race to build space station
According to the news, this company living in space is in the race to build a space station that will be the successor of the international space station, which will be closed by 2031. The California-based company is planning to launch a single-modern space station Heaven-1 on the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in May 2026. Hot said that at the moment, we are on track with our launch for May 2026. Waste plans to conduct several tests at the space station before sending astronauts to the orbital laboratory by July next year. The first module of Heaven-2, which is a very large space station, is expected to be launched in 2028.
Waste is excited about India’s Gaganyaan project
Hot is excited about India’s Gaganyaan project, which is planning to fly human space by the beginning of 2027, and is keen to host science payload at the space station. He said that we are interested in blowing payload in science from India. Our second interest is likely to use Gaganyaan rockets as a transport service for our space station. India’s heavy-lift launch vehicle Mark-III is scheduled to take Gaganyaan Mission to the lower-Earth class by the beginning of 2027.
LVM-3 rockets have been used for commercial missions, such as launching onewab satellites in class.
Design to support four crew members
In the year 2023, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) signed a five -year, non -funded Space Act Agreement (SAA) with Waste, with the declared objective of the company’s concept maturity and the final implementation of the space station module. The Heaven-1 spacecraft has a 45-meter cubic volume and is designed to support four crew members for a two-week duration mission. This includes four crew quarters for gold, several mid-deck lockers for science modules, a general area with a deployable table and several crew interfaces.
