TL;DR Summary

Crypto tycoon Jed McCaleb, CEO of Vast, is teaming up with Elon Musk's SpaceX to launch the first-ever commercial space station, Haven-1, in 2025. The bus-sized orbital outpost will be home to a four-member crew in 2026, which could include astronauts and private individuals. Vast will also conduct the world's first spinning artificial gravity experiment on a commercial space station. The inaugural 30-day mission will be in 2026, but the cost per seat has not been revealed. Space tourism will soon be a part of our lives as billionaires spend their money to send the average person into orbit.
