Starfall promises affordable routine access to microgravity

Original: Starfall – Affordable, routine access to microgravity

Starfall is being presented as a new offering aimed at making access to microgravity affordable and routine, rather than a rare, expensive research opportunity. If delivered as described, it could lower the barrier for companies and researchers to run experiments or manufacture materials in space. Discussion is focused on how realistic the pricing and regular access claims are, and what demand exists for commercial microgravity services.

Why now: A claim of cheap, routine microgravity access would be a significant shift for the commercial space industry, prompting debate about feasibility and demand.
