A replacement for the ISS? Airbus unveils 26ft-wide, three deck
space station concept with living quarters, science hub and a
GREENHOUSE that could launch within a decade

The Airbus 'LOOP' module hosts a centrifuge that can create
Earth-like gravity

Plans are suited to fit heavy super-launchers as seen on
SpaceX's Starship

. . .

Ok, quit thinking SMALL.

Think MODULAR.

Remember the Kubrick/Clarke vision - go for it.

Sorry, but we've had enough 'tin cans' in orbit
now. Save up and build a REAL space station.

Half or quarter modules, assemble. Assemble more.
Tie them together and give it a whirl.
