Max Space, a Florida-based company, has unveiled a new expandable space habitat for low Earth orbit, the moon, and beyond at the Space Foundation's 41st annual Space Symposium. The company's sub-scale version of their expandable habitat, which can offer far greater habitable volume and lower launch mass and logistics burden, is a physical demonstration of a new approach to space infrastructure. Saleem Miyan, co-founder and CEO of Max Space, said that if we are serious about space exploration, we need real estate that is scalable and built for how humans will live and operate off Earth. The new technology reflects a shift in how humanity will live, work in space, with a new strategic partnership between Voyager Technologies and Max Space set to be developed later this decade.
