Bigelow Expandable Activity Module
The Bigelow Expandable Activity Module (BEAM) is an expandable space station module being developed by Bigelow Aerospace, under contract to NASA, for use as a temporary module on the International Space Station (ISS) from 2016 to 2017. Bigelow has plans to build a second BEAM module as an airlock for the Bigelow Commercial Space Station.
==History==
Having first considered the idea in the 1960s, NASA began taking another look at expandable module technology beginning in early 2010,〔〔 various options were considered, including Bigelow for providing what at the time was to have been a torus-shaped storage module, called the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module, for the ISS. One application of the toroidal BEAM design was as a centrifuge demo preceding further developments of the NASA Nautilus-X multi-mission exploration vehicle.〔 In January 2011, Bigelow projected that this module could be built and made flight ready 24 months after a build contract was secured.〔
On December 20, 2012, NASA awarded Bigelow Aerospace a contract to construct the Bigelow Expandable Activity Module,〔 under NASA's Advanced Exploration Systems (AES) Program.〔 NASA plans made public in mid-2013 called for a 2015 delivery of the module to the ISS,〔 and , the date has slipped slightly to "early 2016".
