NASA has injected an additional $99.5 million into agreements with Blue Origin and Voyager Space, supporting the development of commercial space stations. The funds, allocated from NASA's Commercial Low Earth Orbit Destinations (CLD) program, aim to nurture alternatives to the International Space Station (ISS).

Voyager Space, partnering with Airbus Defence and Space for the Starlab station, secured $57.5 million for development milestones and enhancing Northrop Grumman's Cygnus cargo spacecraft.
