Ad Astra is developing the VF‑200 VASIMR® payload intended for demonstration onboard the U.S. National Laboratory segment of the ISS, i.e., Ad Astra supplies the VF‑200 flight payload and in‑orbit demonstration services to the ISS National Lab.
Space Tango provides Research-in-a-Box and CubeLab automated on-orbit laboratory services to ISS National Lab users and research customers, enabling investigators to run microgravity experiments on the ISS via Space Tango facilities.
ISS National Lab (managed by CASIS) sponsors investigations and enables customer access to NanoRacks’ commercial research platforms on ISS — CASIS/ISS National Lab and NanoRacks executed an agreement to use NanoRacks’ commercial research platform for ISS National Lab‑sponsored investigations in extreme environments.
ISS National Lab sponsored payloads have used Redwire commercial facilities (e.g., PIL-BOX crystallization hardware), and the FY25 report notes Redwire hardware updates for ISS National Lab‑sponsored experiments, indicating the ISS National Lab serves Redwire as a customer/user of on‑orbit facility capability.
The ISS National Lab provides the hosted flight environment and programmatic pathway (hosted payload opportunities) that enable Ad Astra's planned VF‑200 VASIMR® technology demonstration aboard the U.S. National Laboratory portion of the ISS; the National Lab therefore functions as an enabling host for Ad Astra's in‑orbit demonstration.
