About this listen

Stations in the Sky: How We Build, Live and Dream in Orbit by Daniel Triana is a captivating exploration of humanity’s evolving presence in space, tracing the journey from early orbital outposts to today’s ambitious commercial space station ventures. Drawing on iconic past examples like Skylab, Mir, and the International Space Station, the book chronicles how engineers, astronauts, and visionaries turned the dream of living among the stars into reality. It delves into the technological, political, and human challenges faced in building these floating laboratories, while highlighting their role in advancing science and international cooperation.


As the space age enters a new chapter, Stations in the Sky shifts its gaze toward the bold future being shaped by private space station plans. With companies racing to launch the next generation of orbital habitats, the book examines how commercial space stations are redefining who gets to live and work in space—and why. Blending history, science, and visionary storytelling, this book paints a vivid picture of life beyond Earth and the dreams propelling us there.
