Capabilities

Human performance drives whether a crew stays safe, effective, and mission-capable.

Understand, design, validate

Stellar Amenities treats crew performance as a design input, not an afterthought measured once a habitat is already built. Our approach combines space-architecture training with the NASA Human Research Program evidence base and NASA-STD-3001 human-systems integration standards, applied through task and timeline analysis, workload and reach-envelope assessment, and direct analog-mission testing — so recommendations are grounded in how crews actually behave under real constraints, not just how they're supposed to behave on paper.

We work directly with engineering teams and mission planners to reduce crew error, evaluate new hardware and procedures before they reach flight, and build habitat designs around the workload, fatigue, and confinement realities of the mission they're actually meant for.

How we work with you

Stellar Amenities advises station providers, aerospace primes, and companies entering the space economy on the human side of spaceflight: how people live, work, and stay healthy inside the vehicles and habitats now being built.

Habitat & interior strategy

Layouts, outfitting, and habitability requirements for commercial stations and lunar surface systems, from concept through design review.

Crew health & human factors

Sleep, cognition, and performance considerations translated into design and procurement decisions.

Market entry & commercial strategy

For non-space companies bringing products, brands, or research into orbit, and for space companies finding their customers. Delivered on a commissioned basis with a Commercial LEO Destination provider.

Human-factors review

Independent assessment of a spacecraft, habitat, or procedure against crew workload, error risk, and fatigue, including review of mission incidents and EVA/maintenance procedures.

Partnership & brand development

Building mission-participant pipelines and non-space brand partnerships — pharma, consumer, and wellness — around a crewed flight, drawing on direct relationships with the people who make these calls.

Technical due diligence & education

Systems-maturity and market-timing diligence for investors, plus a hands-on course that teaches teams how to enter the space market, matched to their own capabilities.

How to start
  1. 01

    Qualify

    Tell us the one concrete problem in front of you — a layout under review, a crew-facing procurement call, a market-entry question. A short exchange tells us both whether we're the right fit.

  2. 02

    Scope

    We run a focused working session and leave you with a documented direction — and, where it fits, a scoped proposal for the follow-on work.

  3. 03

    Engage

    We take on the engagement, typically over several weeks, with clear deliverables that belong to you.

How an engagement starts

Start with a focused working session: bring one concrete problem — a habitat layout under review, a crew-facing procurement decision, or a market-entry question — and leave with a documented direction and, where it fits, a scoped proposal for the follow-on work (typically a multi-week engagement).
