The end of the ISS is less than 10 years away. Here's what's coming next.
From the luxury space hotels of Axiom Space to the inflatable super habitats of Bigelow Aerospace to future international efforts, these are the places where we could be living and working in the coming decades.

For anybody asking why I didn't include Orbital Assembly and the Gateway Foundation in this video, there is an extra segment covering that in the version of this video on Nebula. If you're not on Nebula, I also covered them in a previous video: https://youtu.be/wYDJ0vxg1lU

BlueOrigin is known for two decades of stunning ANIMATIONS .
-
That's cool to see my animation in the video 🖖🏼

"A decent flip phone was $1000 25 years ago". An unimaginable price for a phone today.
-
There's still no replacement for STS
-
My uncle was a professional artist, and did renderings for skylab. He always put a little mouse in all his pieces, so if you see a skylab painting with a mouse in it, it's his.

LOL "I'd throw up everywhere, but I'd do it". Me too!
-
I don't understand why these inflatable habitats have not been the all rage. The amount of workable space provided by these habitats is amazing.
-
“Halo being delayed” well it isn’t the first time I’ve heard that.
-
The most exciting part of this video is the repurposing of rocket stages and building useful things in space from scrapped parts
-
Starship + Bigelow = massive space station. We wouldn't need tiny modules and that would push us so much farther into the time-line most want to see.
-
I've always thought the Bigelow inflatables is a great idea. Seems to be build able now, if Star Ship gets up to speed, you could put a bunch of large Bigelow habitats in to space quick.

When kids in the UK were asked what they want to be when they grow up, for the first time since the 70's the list wasn't topped by ASTRONAUT...it had been replaced by YOUTUBER! In other words you're living the dream, man. Also it made me cry a little. Edit: I can't verify this as true, just something I heard in a podcast and didn't question the authenticity of it.

Amazon order in the future: Please step back, your order will impact in 5 minutes!
-
Shame about Bigelow, I'd say 5 years ( geeze has it already been that long?! ) of staying up and intact proves their design has great merit. Hopefully someone else will pick up where they left off
-
Wow, I never realized how big the Skylab interior actually was.
-
I remember Skylab hitting the Outback in 1979 when "Alien" was in theatres. I recall being out on a date on a Saturday night in Dec 1975 & looking up to see a BEAUTIFUL site of a Russian space craft breaking up in lovely colors across the sky.
-
I hope we keep and increase international cooperation in space. It's a common goal we should all share together.
-
The Amazon salt is so real, and I'm here for it.

"It's enough to make a space station feel, inadequate" sniff ...I know right?... sniff
