Boeing has plans to create a spacecraft dubbed the CST-100 (Crew Space Transport) which will be able to ferry up to 7 passengers into low earth orbit. This craft would be able to get people to sites such as the International Space Station or Bigelow Aerospace's Orbiting Hotel.

The CST-100 is part of the $18 million dollar award that Boeing received as part of NASA's Commercial Crew Development Space Act Agreement
