Landmark investment powering humanity's return to the Moon, establishing sustainable lunar presence, and laying groundwork for future Mars missions
Rapidly expanding market for private space stations, orbital manufacturing, and in-space services creating unprecedented opportunities for innovation
Evaluating a space deal, or trying to figure out if now's the time to get in? We can give you a straight answer.
Technical due diligence on space systems, regulatory pathways, and market timing ahead of a check.
GTM strategy for space companies, including dual-use positioning and funding roadmaps.
Mapping NASA funding streams, CLD RFPs, and dual-use technology transfer opportunities into actionable capture strategies.
The Lab combines crew health engineering with the space architecture and commercialization work Stellar Amenities has done since 2019.
Private jets, bunkers, yachts and remote stations are being disrupted by the same problems space solves first: small volumes, closed life support, isolation and long stays. We bring what works in orbit to these markets.
“Very cool concept [deep pressure sleeping bag]! Would love to learn more of the correlation between pressure and sleep in microgravity.”
“[Their deep pressure suit] could solve a lot of bone and muscle loss issues while living and working in space.”
“Stellar Amenities balances rigorous engineering, human factors, and business acumen. That's what makes them successful.”
“TESSERAE interior design is looking fantastic! Love the galley tessellation concept, where [they] employed a cabinetry tessellation to ensure fully optimized use of physical space.”
“Cool origami tactile environment solution for AstroAccess for blind navigation during microgravity... They’re designed with directionality like scales and pattern density change.”
“We had a consultation with Stellar Amenities on sustainable materials for our new Biosphere 2 analog habitat, providing us with insights that helped inform our design process.”
“...liked their presentation at the Care in Space Challenge and their deep pressure sleeping bag is clever.”
“ExPod project is an interesting take on the next generation of private quarters in space. I especially think that the pressurized suit will be beneficial for the long duration space missions...”
“... their work on the navigation system for AstroAccess mission is insightful and fundamental, not only for space environment but for blind user accessibility everywhere.”
“We were excited to meet someone of [their] caliber at NASA's Studio JPL. [Their] renders on space habitation ... and innovative concepts are impressive.”
“Working with Stellar Amenities opened up new possibilities we hadn't considered. They helped us secure our first seven-figure NASA contract and brought a fresh perspective to our approach.”
“[The team] applies a clever synergy between art and science in the Buckminster Fuller's manner.”
“[their] vest tested on a parabolic flight could be the first step in understanding how pressure affects astronaut performance while working in space.”
“[they] consulted us on lunar architecture, rover design, and airlock design to ensure our production of Maelstrom II is scientifically realistic. Their expertise elevated our space environments.”
“[Stellar Amenities] brought us crucial early-stage technical hires for our deployable reflectors that were instrumental to our growth.”
Selected commercial engagements from Stellar Amenities across aerospace, architecture and engineering, education and entertainment, and market intelligence. Some clients are not named at their request.
Built a pipeline of mission participants and brand partners with the operator’s VPs of Crew Sales and Agency & Partnerships. Closed a wearable-brand partnership in two weeks.
Client · Commercial LEO Destination operator
Framed autonomous decision software and shaped an ISS National Lab proposal around how the program office evaluates and funds this work.
Client · Aerospace and defense contractor
Translated microgravity manufacturing into yield, purity and product performance for buyers outside space, and handed over qualified opportunities.
Client · In-space manufacturing company
Sourced specialized early technical hires, including structural engineering talent, by screening candidates on the deployable-reflector problem itself.
Mapped a 15,000-person firm’s competencies against NASA’s technology taxonomy. Identified seven transferable competencies and three pilot technologies.
Client · Global engineering firm
Advised on where the firm’s design methods transfer to space habitation, where they break, and how to build credible space work on its existing practice.
Client ·Design and innovation firm
Advised on how material-ecology methods hold up under mass, radiation and closed-loop life support constraints. Confidential at the client’s request.
Client · Renowned designer and researcher
Developed the geometry of a black-hole transit vessel and a physics-based logic for a set of artificial planets the creative team could use on screen.
Reviewed the film’s lunar habitat, rover and airlock against how these systems work, and offered alternatives that kept the story intact.
After a site visit on July 16, 2021, prepared an initial design breakdown for the Space Analog for the Moon and Mars: preliminary interior concepts, simulation approaches, scope and contract structure.
Diligence on systems maturity, regulatory risk and market timing, with warm introductions into technical and program networks.
A two-part course for leadership teams: translating existing capabilities into space offerings, then execution strategy and deal flow.
Stellar Amenities Lab, based in San Francisco, researches and develops the systems that keep crews healthy on long missions.
About 1 to 1.5 percent bone loss per month, only partly offset by exercise.
Sixteen sunrises a day, and sleep loss is one of the most common complaints.
Swelling of the optic disc and eye changes on long missions.
Diagnosing and treating a crew member far from any hospital.
Isolation and a small shared volume affect mood and teamwork.
Interiors, crew quarters, waste systems and noise shape recovery.
When a system is ready, we build a company around it or license it to the operators who need it.
Stellar Amenities designs the spaces people live in off Earth. Stellar Amenities Lab builds the technology that keeps them healthy there. Both start from the same idea: architecture is the shell that keeps a body alive, and the body sets the limits of every mission.
