A sign of the times.

Wonder how many of NASA's astronauts will see Bigelow as a better path to space than waiting around for ever vanishing NASA flight slots.

Cool! It’s likely that they’ll spend far more time in space than their government counterparts once they get going.

Clearly a ploy to try to get an inside track to government largess. Inviting government trained crew to work on their projects brings the same doctrines that makes government programs overly expensive. It would seem Bigalow wants to adopts the zero tolerance to risk that dooms all publicly funded agencies to massive overruns.

Bigalow is revealed as a sham.

I don’t have any kind of training for NASA but I’d still love to work with them on more than office cleaning.
