It is available but still a little pricey. The website of one
that sells it is below:
http://www.aspensystems.com/aerogel.html.
Other companies can be found by do a web search.
I agree with Thunderhorse Woman in that I believe large thermal
mass, solar design like along the lines of the earthships and a
double wall is all that is required. After all what make aerogel
such a great insulator is that it is mostly air, the second best
insulator after a contained vacuum.
cheers,
