Reasons to Believe | LIFE Habitat for Space Exploration

Sierra Space’s LIFE (Large Integrated Flexible Environment) habitat launches on a conventional rocket and inflates on-orbit to a large structure that is three stories tall, and 27 feet in diameter. It's stronger than steel and designed to support LEO applications and long-duration missions.

"Investing in these types of technologies and developing them for space exploration means that we can leverage it for other applications that directly benefit humanity." - Mickey Mathew, Systems Engineer - Space Destinations

We look forward to continuing to build this key element in our Destinations portfolio and paving the way for the development of advanced inflatable habitat systems and architectures.

Unless people like you continue to push the envelope of what's possible, technology won't necessarily advance. Thank you for dreaming big and blazing the trail ahead. Godspeed Sierra Space and Godspeed to humanity's future out among the stars.

SpaceX fan here really rooting for you guys. I look forward to an even bigger habitat. Maybe 18-20 meters in diameter, launched on Starship. Imagine 7 meter deep living quarters. Maybe even rotating for some fake gravity. You place your own limits.

You're literally amazing... this is the stuff I wanted to do when I started my Biomed degree. I fly choppers now and I look up to people and companies like this, to this very day.

big fan of everything you do, keep challenging the space industrys assumptions :)

Conceptual engineering is ground zero for new creations.

Would be cool if a sub-scale or even full scale demonstrator LIFE module replaces BEAM on ISS one day, just thinking about the ISS gaining that much volume...

The space plane should've been used for crew launches and recoveries. Especially in place of Starliner. What a waste that has been!
