Partners in Science

The Voyager Institute for Space, Technology and Advancement (VISTA) Science Park, hosted at The Ohio State University in partnership with Voyager Technologies, is the first science park dedicated to in-space research and manufacturing. The park will be home to commercial space companies, university research, education activities and more. VISTA will host a dedicated Starlab Payload and Analog Research Lab which will serve as a payload development center for research, operations, communications, and training activities.

Simulation and Monitoring

Creating a digital twin of Starlab, Palantir will simulate scenarios to optimize resources, energy usage, and performance. AI will monitor real-time data to identify issues or anomalies.

Predictive Maintenance

AI algorithms will analyze sensor and equipment data to predict when maintenance is needed, extending the lifespan of critical components and improving station operations.

Resource Management

Digital twins will offer a comprehensive view of Starlab’s resources and optimize allocation. AI will analyze air quality, water supply, energy consumption and more based on demand and usage patterns.

Logistics and Payload Management

Data analytics will optimize Starlab’s business and payload models. Ground Predictive Processing will model the microgravity environment to enhance research and experimentation pre-launch and post-return.

Mission Planning and Optimization

Starlab will integrate AI and the digital twin to optimize mission planning, trajectory calculations, and resource allocation for upcoming Starlab missions.

Emergency Response

Should critical incidents arise, AI-powered systems will quickly assess situations, and provide real-time response recommendations while coordinating communication among crew members and ground control.
