Editor’s note: Robert Bigelow told AIAA Space 2006 attendees today here in San Jose that he plans to put a three person space hotel into orbit some time between 2009 and 2010. The module should have a sufficient lifespan such that private human transportation systems can come online and and send people up to visit it. One way these visits may happen is via a manned Atlas V – Bigelow also announced today that he had an agreement with Lockheed Martin to study how to man rate the Atlas V rocket.
