Abstract The purpose of commercial space activities aboard the Russian Segment of the International Space Station (ISS) is partial compensation for the expenses of additional functionality. There can be some commercial interest in four areas of on-orbit resources: delivering, integrating, and operating a customer’s pay load, providing comfortable living conditions for additional crewmembers, advertising, and space tourism. Some ISS commercialization aspects are illustrated by the FGB-2 multifunctional module, developed at the Khrunichev Space Center. An analysis of additional functions provided by the module, free module resources and ISS resources required are presented. The relation between these three components varies according to the phase of ISS assembly and usage. Cooperation between national space agencies, industry and customers is required.
