Bigelow Aerospace forms company to sell space on inflatable space stationsThe company behind the first and only inflatable module added to the International Space Station, will soon be ready to expand its commercial operations in Earth orbit — if there is a market to do so.
Bigelow Aerospace, which in 2016 deployed the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module or BEAM at the space station, announced on Tuesday (Feb. 20) that it has formed a new company to operate its orbital platforms and has partnered with the manager of the U.S. National Laboratory on board the International Space Station.
