TL;DR Summary

SpaceX has signed a contract to launch the world's first commercial space station, Haven-1, being built by private aerospace firm Vast. The station will be launched into orbit no later than August 2025, and manned crews will use SpaceX's Dragon reusable spacecraft to get to the space station, docking for up to 30 days while in orbit. Vast plans for the initial module to become part of a larger 100-meter-long multi-module spinning space station with artificial gravity. SpaceX will also provide crew training, spacesuit and spacecraft ingress and egress exercises, and conduct mission simulations.
