      Voyager Space and Airbus to build commercial space station

      Staff Reporter by Staff Reporter

      The joint venture builds upon an agreement announced in January where Voyager selected Airbus to provide technical support for the proposed station.

      Voyager Space (Voyager) and Airbus Defence and Space (Airbus) have signed an agreement paving the way for a transatlantic joint venture to develop, build, and operate Starlab, a commercial space station planned to succeed the International Space Station. The US-led joint venture will bring together world-class leaders in the space domain, while further uniting American and European interests in space exploration.

      Commenting on the agreement, Matthew Kuta, President at Voyager Space, said: “We are proud to charter the future of space stations with Airbus. The International Space Station is widely regarded as the most successful platform for global cooperation in space history, and we are committed to building on this legacy as we move forward with Starlab. We are establishing this joint venture to reliably meet the known demand from global space agencies while opening new opportunities for commercial users.”

      Voyager was awarded a $160m Space Act Agreement (SAA) from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in December 2021 via Nanoracks, part of Voyager’s exploration segment. Part of NASA’s Commercial Low Earth Orbit Development Programme, this SAA sets the foundation to create Starlab, a continuously crewed, free-flying space station to serve NASA and a global customer base of space agencies and researchers. The programme’s mission is to maintain continued human presence and American leadership in low Earth orbit (LEO). The announcement is built on an agreement made public in January 2023, where Voyager selected Airbus to provide technical design support and expertise for Starlab.

      Jean-Marc Nasr, Head of Space Systems at Airbus, added: “With a track record of innovation and technological firsts, Airbus prides itself on partnering with companies that are looking to change history. This transatlantic venture with footprints on both sides of the ocean aligns the interests of both ourselves and Voyager and our respective space agencies. This pioneers continued European and American leadership in space that takes humanity forward. Together our teams are focused on creating an unmatched space destination both technologically and as a business operation.”

      In addition to the US entity, Starlab will have a European joint venture subsidiary to directly serve the European Space Agency (ESA) and its member state space agencies.

      This announcement follows a major design milestone in Starlab’s development, the Systems Requirements Review (SRR), which baselines the major space systems, technical readiness, and ability to meet NASA’s mission and safety requirements. The Starlab SRR was completed in June 2023 in coordination with NASA’s Commercial LEO Development Programme team.

      “Today marks a major step forward for the future of commercial space destinations,” continued Kuta. “We are proud to have NASA’s trust to build the replacement for the ISS, a partnership that expands Starlab’s ecosystem to global space agencies, and a team that is mission-driven and dedicated to reimagining the future.”

      The implementation of the joint venture will be subject to applicable regulatory approvals.
