Airbus and Voyager Space to Deepen Tie-Up in Race to Build New Space Station

U.S. space venture company Voyager Space and Airbus said on Wednesday they will co-operate more closely in the race to build a private version of the International Space Station.

The two companies announced plans in January for Airbus to provide design support for Voyager’s Starlab, one of three projects pre-selected by NASA to draw up plans for a potential commercial successor to the ISS.
