The Lunar I-Hab [3] (formerly known as International Habitation Module, International Habitat or I-HAB) is designed as a habitat module of the Lunar Gateway station, to be built by the European Space Agency (ESA) in collaboration with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, or JAXA.
NASA awarded a contract of US$331.8 million to launch PPE on a SpaceX Falcon Heavy in 2027 with the HALO module. [44] [56] [1] The Habitation and Logistics Outpost (HALO), [57] [58] also called the Minimal Habitation Module (MHM) and formerly known as the Utilization Module, [59] will be built by Northrop Grumman Innovation Systems (NGIS).
The construction of the module was approved in November 2019. [8] [9] On 14 October 2020, Thales Alenia Space announced that they had been selected by ESA to build the ESPRIT module. [4] [5] The module is currently slated to launch as a co-manifested payload on Artemis V in 2030. 1.5 tons of cargo will be packed inside the module for launch. [2]
The Habitation and Logistics Outpost (HALO), [211] [212] also called the Minimal Habitation Module (MHM) and formerly known as the Utilization Module, [213] will be built by Northrop Grumman Innovation Systems (NGIS). [214] [215] A single Falcon Heavy equipped with an extended fairing [216] will launch the PPE together with the HALO in 2027.
In mid 2024, the HALO module reached significant completion and entered into the stress test phase in Thales Alenia's facilities. Upon successful completion of the stress tests, it is planned to be shipped to the US Northrop Grumman facilities to undergo final launch preparation and integration with the Power and Propulsion Element.
60 Day Mission – The basic 60-day mission variant would consist of a Cryogenic Propulsion Stage (CPS), ISS Destiny-derived lab module, and an airlock/tunnel. In addition, a mission-specific support craft, such as the FlexCraft or the Multi-Mission Space Exploration Vehicle (MMSEV) would be docked to the airlock/tunnel.
