Northrop Grumman and Voyager Space Forge Partnership for Commercial Space Station

Northrop Grumman and Voyager Space have announced a partnership to develop a commercial space station project. Northrop Grumman will modify its Cygnus spacecraft to dock autonomously with Voyager's Starlab space station, while also ending development of its own proposed commercial station. The partnership aims to combine the strengths and expertise of both companies to create a strong contender for replacing the International Space Station. The collaboration will also allow Northrop to provide Cygnus cargo resupply services to other customers. NASA sees the partnership as a positive development in the evolution of the low Earth orbit economy.
