Updates on the future space stations: ● The Voyager Station and Pioneer Station look fantastic but they are not likely to happen in the near future, their pages are even removed from the company's website. ● The following space station's launch date has been adjusted: Axiom Station is postponed to 2026; Lunar Gateway is postponed to Nov 2025; ROSS is postponed to 2027; Starlab is postponed to 2028. ● Here are the new planned space stations: Commercial space station Haven-1 is planned to launch atop a Falcon 9 in 2025; India's Bharatiya Antariksha Station is planned to launch in 2028. If you know more new updates on future space stations, please tell us in the comments! And I may make an updated version in the future!

That's hilarious. I like how you take's OAC's announcements so seriously. Still, I was curious to see what they've been up to, so I visited their website. There one can read the following amazing assertions: "Orbital Assembly Corporation develops and operates gravity-capable space stations on-orbit, in cislunar space, and throughout the solar system; enabling humanity to work, play, and thrive in the space ecosystem. We leverage space flight heritage commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products and our own innovative proprietary technology to build hybrid space stations with artificial gravity." So, how many "gravity-capable space stations' does OAC operate right now? None. And how many "space flight heritage" COTS products has OAC leveraged (love that term!) to put one of their aspirational space stations into Earth orbit, cislunar space, or elsewhere in the solar system? Well... The CEO is a marketing hack and former consultant who took over in 2021 after serving as a member of the exec advisory board. No engineering or finance background, as far as I can tell. One of the founders, now COO, is an architect who ran an architecture firm. Expect this firm to vanish before they operate anything above the Karman line. It's expertise lies mainly in flooding the zone with aspirational fluff until they have burned through their investors' money.

Hey, great that you made a video like this! The 3D modelling is totally fine for this kind of video, but IMO the animation could improve by a bit. There is too much back and forth, too much zooming in and out, left and right. I think it would have been much better to move the camera from left to right at an almost fixed angle, then move the camera a bit further away, each time the stations need a bit more space for the camera to catch them.
Very nice, thank you! I was waiting for the Space Shuttle to dock with Mir or ISS though ;)

Then the successes they had with the later Salyut space stations after that. It's nice that this video remembers them and in fact Salyut 1 was the first space station and not Skylab like the Americans want everyone to think.

Spinning artificial gravity was proven many years ago to just not be a viable way to handle gravity. Not only is it absurdly expensive to bull off, but the benefits dont outweigh the cons. NASA long looked into artificial gravity and came to the conclusion that just making astronauts work out was far better then trying to simulate any sort of gravity, especially considering spinning gravity isn't really anything like gravity on earth.

@@Memeieli If you got to the wikipedia page on artificial gravity you will notice a very interesting paper in reference (4). First we need to differentiate between costs when you build something on Earth and launch it to orbit and building something in space and putting it in orbit. It is widely accepted that if we want to have any reasonable advancement in our endeavors in space we need to set up infrastructure in space. So your claim about it being absurdly expensive ceases to be when we set up infrastructure up there. We don't even need to source 100% of our resources and parts in space. You need to start with the more heavy ones (steel frames , plates ,etc). Then you could also look into shipping in orbit certain more "rare" resources that are needed in smaller quantities and build the parts in space. Generally high tech chips and the like require clean rooms (something easier implemented in space) as well as vacuums. Second we have little actual data whether it is worth having 24/7 7 days a week artificial gravity or just have intermittent artificial gravity paired with exercises. NASA came to the conclusion that building a space station or rocket on Earth that is capable for artificial gravity isn't worth the effort compared to the periods astronauts spend in space. Lastly as the paper highlights we honestly have a way hgher tolerance to higher rpm than previously thought. If you can source the heaviest part of a space station in space then just bulding a longer space station for lower rpm becomes feasible. Not to mention that you probably don't even need a human to experience 24/7 artificial gravity. In that scenario you don't the whole ship or station to have access to artificial gravity. Then working in shifts allows for more room to spare.
By 2200 we'll have built Elysium. 😂 All joking aside, excellent work on this.
I think "proposed" would be more suitable than "planned" at least till significant funding has been secured.
I thought this was a metalballstudios video at first. Nicely done!
