Blowup Plastic Space Station

Space.com is carrying this interesting tidbit about a company trying an innovative way to build space stations:

[Bigelow Aerospace] is keen on spurring private ownership and use of space stations by making habitable space modules affordable for corporate communities. Under several agreements with NASA, Bigelow is drawing upon NASA's TransHab inflatable structures program, although the private company is pioneering its own design.

If it gets us one step closer to an orbital Hilton, I'm all for it!
