An In-Depth Look At The World's First Commercial Space Station

- Axiom Space is currently in the process of developing and manufacturing segments for the first commercial space station, Axiom Station. With the first segment launch scheduled to happen in 2025, the company is nearing the completion of some of the initial modules. Fortunately for Axiom, this single-segment launch will become operational right away as it will first attach to the International Space Station.
Over the next few years, more modules will launch each with a specific purpose until Axiom Station can officially separate and become its own low Earth orbit destination. However, this is much easier said than done, and in reality, each module plays a very important role in the operation of the full station. This correlates to which segment launches when and why.
Over time Axiom’s plans have changed related to design and timing, by now the company has everything practically set in stone. Here I will go more in-depth into the different modules of Axiom Station, what progress the company has made, how each segment works with the other, and more.

Man, WALL-E is unfolding sooner then I thought.
Unlike the Gateway Spaceport, whom refuses to share any useful information on how they realistically plan to achieve their goal or deal with logistics, Axiom is a company I can get behind.
gateway is most likely a scam to quickly pocket some investor money
@@mathewferstl7042asa is government funded (and in case anyone is wondering all of nasas total budget is 0.5% of national budget of wich a tiny bit is gateway so for the average American the total money the have to pay for it is if I remember correct ((witch I cannot guarantee)) around $12 a year for 10 years total) either way investors don’t exist here.
@@Wurtoz9643 Gateway Spaceport is a different space station from the Lunar Gateway space station.
Gateway Spaceport was originally proposed by the Gateway Foundation that was doing a lot of illegal stuff to con people out of money. They then slowly transitioned to Orbital Assembly Corporation where the scammers seemed to have a falling out and the Founder went off to form a new scam at Gateway Spaceport LLC.
AAC has continued its own scamming by getting normal people to invest in them and showing very basic tech every few years to seem like they are making progress. AAC has recently changed its name to Above Space Developments as there have been several CZcamsrs that have exposed their lies.
I wish I could afford a Spacex ticket
Regular people won't ever get to mars.
@@TheMoneypresidentthey will want to send us as test dummies
if you want to that bad, consider trying to get a job up there when all of the commercial stations are set up.
Most of the regular people who are there are going to be workers, researchers, engineers, et cetera.
@@TheMoneypresident He didn't say Mars.
Dennis Tito bought his way onto ISS (with the Russians) way back in 2001. Various others followed, until the Shuttle retired, and the Russians were able to gouge NASA more for the available seats than they could even wealthy private citizens.
SpaceX and politics with Russia have changed that, again.
Yes, you need deep pockets (I don't know if you're still considered 'regular people' at that point), but it's *possible* to get yourself at least to LEO.
Once Starship can land, dozens of flights and many Starships will be made for Starlink and others asap. After hundreds of safe cargo landings (CargoDragon to CrewDragon was 5 years, so maybe 2 years in this case), Starship can bring 100 people to LEO for 3 days for $100,000/seat, see my napkin ($10m revenue, $5m propellant, etc.). Unlike the usual supply and demand, SpaceX will build a lot more Starships than necessary because Elon wants a 1000 ship fleet eventually for Mars' conjunctions. So any income for the 'surplus' ships is better than none. Plus the early tickets might be discounted since the first passengers will be demonstrator dummies for the rest of the market. And if SpaceX doesn't want to do airline style flights, another company like the current Space Tourists will try to be the middleman. Sure, rampant optimism and rosy assumptions but clearly a non-zero chance so start saving*! :)
*If you put $10K down now, put in $300/mo and get 8% interest compounded monthly, you'll have ~$100,000 by 2035, about 12 years, by which time seats will be available. Your choice. ;)
Cool...😎
Realy I like this video
17. Remember that number. That was the diameter (in meters) of Skylab, in orbit, way back in 1973! Sigh! Kudos to Axiom and Reef, in their efforts, starting much tinier space stations. May they and others get to 17m- diameter--and wider--orbital structures, as soon as possible.
Skylab was an adapted Saturn 5 third stage tank. That was a huge rocket. It also was not rated for extended operations like the ISS.
It was easier to make it back then, but that may be possible now. Nasa awarded an unfunded support contract to SpaceX to study the possibility of making Starship into a space station.
The 5m at launch class inflatable LIFE modules that are planned for the Orbital Reef are a similar size as Skylab’s orbital workshop. Sierra Space is also working on a 7m at launch class to take advantage of New Glenn’s large fairing so the LIFE modules will exceed the size of Skylab’s orbital workshop.
The ISS should be recycled by disassembling internal equipment & moving said equipment to the new facilities for processing into fresh material for 3d printing.
The time has come to take Jared seriously.
I do, I do. Don't know why the algo isn't letting more people know. Plus the clickbaiters are absolutely awful these days, you'd think there's be more people here.
I thought they will be building a processing plant for space rocks.
So ISS currently typically hosts 7 astronauts, briefly more during a crew changeover. Axiom Hab1 will be able to host up to 4 crew and Hab2 another 4. Does that mean that while the Axiom station is docked to the ISS while being built up to full stand-alone capability the typical ISS population will grow from 7 to 11 and then from 11 to 15 when Hab1 and Hab2 are launched & docked to the ISS or will some of the existing ISS crew migrate from existing ISS sleeping pods to new Axiom sleeping quarters?
Has anything been said about how adding the Axiom hab modules will affect total ISS populations?
Yes the ISS population will grow. Unless they are part of Axiom missions then no the regular ISS astronauts will not sleep in Axiom’s modules but will likely work in its modules when needed.
@@luther0013 Interesting. Thanks. Looks like we can look forward to new records being set for number of people in the same pressurised space in the next few years then.
I don’t see handholds foe EVA’s!!!
Yes u do it’s the tiny yellow lines on some renders + they prolly forgot cus it is very easy to do that
Can you talk about OneWeb? They already fully deployed their entire constellation before anyone. And they said that they will start selling their service at the end of this year. I don't know how good or bad will be their service, but i want to know more.
What altitude?
Probably around 300 km like the iss
Just wondered if the space station is built with artificial gravity will it be powered by magnets to turn it ....??? The spinney thing that's going to rotate ????
Genuinely can't decipher your comment 👍
That's a cool concept. Von Brown had a lot of renderings of such things magantisom seems interesting but I think cold welding in space would bind that up🤘
@@jimmorrison2657 You remind me off somewhere between an excuse and a lie
I really hope they've redesigned the power module since it's just poorly integrated with the station. The solar panels block the ones on the other modules, 1/3 of the radiators will always be in sun, it shifts the CG dramatically when attached, and honestly it just looks ugly
Wouldn't it be nice to leave all these plebs behind.
Please tell me you said that ironically
Heck, everybody will get to leave if they try hard enough. Everyone can implement their perfect societies and leave others alone. If pioneers get to the main asteroid belt, we're golden.
explain to me why we need another space station in LEO? Dude, send that shit to another planet or moon or something. Get the hell out of LEO man theres a whole freakin solar system out there FFS
It's all a lie!
