Abandoned rocket bodies are among the biggest threats to spacecraft, acording to the European Space Agency. Traditionally, risk is mitigated by having launch providers deorbit the rockets after they've delivered their payload - but why waste a perfectly good, humungous metal tube? One space logistics company proposes turning the upper stages of such spent rockets into 'miniature stations.'

 

"No one has ever demonstrated the core metalworking and fabrication techniques needed to convert a space station in orbit before," as the story notes. But by next May, that could change.
