Vast finished structural qualification of Haven-1 and flew a pathfinder — clearing the path to launch.

Vast

Vast slipped Haven-1's launch to Q1 2027 (from 2026) as cleanroom integration runs longer — a single 14-tonne, 80 m³ module on a Falcon 9 that would be the first commercial space station in orbit.
