Validate expandable structures as a certified spaceflight technology. Provide a low-cost, low earth orbit (LEO) human-rated space complex that is accessible to the commercial sector. Develop an affordable and flexible space complex architecture that can be adapted for any manned or unmanned mission requiring a large pressurized volume. Provide a ground-based infrastructure that the commercial and public entities sector can utilize for developing low-cost, space-based missions.
