Hollow structure to create pressurized space habitats which consists of a pressurized space habitat created from a set of connectable space modules (2) that, once assembled, define a volumetric body with a pressurized interior hollow space (1a), with the total volume of this structure (1) being greater than the sum of the volume of the volumetric bodies that these modules (2) form. The modules (2) are pressurized, with structural modules (2′) and identical standardized modules also being able to exist. For the connection between modules (2), they present flat connection faces (20) with a coinciding door (4) to be fit together upon confronting the respective faces (20) of the two adjacent modules (2), whose doors (4) are fastened and pressurized with connection means (6) and sealing means (7), with the two modules (2) communicating together internally.
