- NASA wants to build another space station — except this one won’t live in a close orbit around Earth. Instead, it will be sent into deep space to orbit around the moon and then someday…Mars. Within the last year, NASA has begun planning for a much smaller astronaut outpost, a new destination dubbed the Gateway. The idea is for this space station to serve as a place for astronauts to live and train for excursions to and from the lunar surface. In this episode of Space Craft, Loren Grush heads to Lockheed Martin to visit a mockup of one of these space habitats and see what living in it might actually feel like.

What would be the most challenging part of living in a deep space habitat?
This tiny home trend is getting out of hand.
4:10 Didn't know Ryan Reynolds was a engineer at Lockheed Martin.
The Japanese could help with their capsule hotels
I already live in a small room on earth because the rents are too high .
4:28 - Why? The sweat isn't gonna drip down.
Easy invest in SpaceX and orbit a BFR. It looks spacious enough to keep the majority of people sane.
WHY ORBIT MOON? WHY NOT BUILD STATION ON MOON? 🤔
Hahahaha I love the closing! “Just like in all Real Estate, it’s all about LOCATION”!! Perfect!!,
It's taken NASA ten years to re-engineer and upgrade a capsule that they originally designed and built from scratch in five years. So, your current crop of "ash-i-nauts" MAY get to check out "the little house at the moon" as part of their retirement party.
She is so lovely, i definitely would go to the moon with her... 😁
This project is a waste of resources. Mars direct and Moon Direct are the efficient ways to go. Deep gateway is a complete waste and will take away from Moon and Mars.
Perhaps we could recycle/retrofit part of the ISS. I mean, isn't the ISS gonna be decommissioned in 4 years anyway?
One room Tin can with a toilet shared with three other people?
Sounds like County Jail to me
I officially hate NASA's thinking.
Lunar Gateway, when you don't have the money and the will to really go to the Moon but still want to spend money...
thats so uselles and funny... A ,,tiny can that keeps you alive" is not our era.Our era is modern big space ships like BFR,not this.Just a waste o time and money,they could just help spacex and they will have a mars station,a moon station and a lot of other things
What happens if the bathroom breaks?
..... What if it breaks on the way to mars
Imagine:
You are alone in your Habitat around the moon.
The Radar and Sensors shows nothing, no craft near your Habitat.
Then someone knocks on the door.
I'm rooting for *Bigelow!* They have habitats in a range of sizes (including a *huge* one) and they're *inflatable* so they'd be quite fast and easy to set up!
They would be my choice for not just the lunar orbiting station but a *moon base* too!
