Private Space Station Test

Bigelow Aerospace has launched its second private space station module.

This is one of three exciting avenues of private space development currently going on. I mentioned Space Adventure's private space mission to the moon earlier. This is the same company that sends people to the International Space Station.

Bigelow Aerospace wants to create space stations that are so inexpensive that just about any country can have one - or lease one, as the case may be. They are using technology that NASA discarded.
