And that would supplement the life support system.
So it's both pragmatic and functional, but also hopefully beautiful and stunning.
Precisely.
Well, actually, some combination of ISS and SpaceX.
So we will try to be as agnostic as possible.
We are going to have to pick a standard, but exactly to your point, we are lucky in that we're not having to be the rocket transportation.
We're going to leverage the SpaceX delivery or other companies that will be able to come and dock there.
And I do think for that five-year timeframe that I gave you, five to seven years for an orbital biolab, most likely that will be us self-assembling this module and attaching it to one of the commercial space stations that are getting built that not very many people know about.
More people should know about these that will be the replacement to the International Space Station.
So the ISS has been up since the, I think it was like maybe completed the design in 1998, flew in early 2000.
So over 20 years.
It's old.
It's like any home.
It really desperately needs a reno.
And what NASA has decided is that we're going to decommission the International Space Station.
NASA has been incentivizing a range of for-profit companies to build their own commercial space stations in orbit.
They will be basically the follow-on to the ISS.
And then we would like to assemble and then attach our Tesserae self-assembling module, if it's an orbital biolab, attach it to one of these providers like Axiom or VAST or Voyager Starlab who are going to be these next, you know, future commercial space stations.
I better, yes.
I think I certainly have the courage and the desire to go.
