Summary: Habitation in space will become a very important topic as we venture out into deep space and eventually to Mars. Turning space from a place to travel through to a place to live will be a prime objective of technology development in the near term. In this episode we'll explore the history of habitation, from the earliest Skylab and Salyut stations to the modular Mir and ISS designs. Then we'll talk about Bigelow Aerospace, its NASA roots, and the commercial impact on the industry as it sets its sights on Mars.
