I was looking a the Bigelow Aerospace site last night and was frustrated by the dearth of information about the satellite itself: pictures of it prior to launch, how it's constructed, what instruments it carries, what if anything is in it, etc. There's the mission log which gives updates on the current status of the satellite, but that's it.
