Great start to #IAC2025!
I was never the smartest in the room, but I was stubborn enough to make it to space. The idea that you need to be a da Vinci to contribute to space is a myth—hard work opens the door!
When we were building the Space Station we assumed we would have the Shuttle fleet for the duration of its life. The Space Station was intended to be maintained by bringing up new parts to swap out with old ones, but once we retired the Shuttles, we didn't have a reliable…
I launched to space for the 4th time #OTD in 2006. It's hard to believe that was 19 years ago!
One challenge of a spacewalk that you cannot plan for is the condition of the equipment you're working with. Some of this stuff has been up in space dealing with vacuum and extreme temperatures for years and years, so it's not in its prime and certainly doesn't work as easily as…
The experience of flying in space is absolutely magnificent, but it's all in the context of coming back to Earth. It's difficult to describe the deep connection you feel when viewing our planet from space, but for future deep space explorers that connection will be tested.The…
The Russian pre-flight traditions are really interesting and there are a lot of them! Many I knew about before my Expedition 14 flight, like urinating on the right rear tire of the bus, getting a haircut instead of watching the rocket roll-out, alcohol baths...but there were a…
The Space Station's Zvezda module was launched in 2000 and is currently the most problematic due to a long-running air leak in the transfer tunnel since 2019. NASA and Roscosmos have identified cracks and 50 'areas of concern,' but are not in agreement on how they got there or…
Katya Echazarreta (@katvoltage) has signed a Seat Reservation Agreement with Axiom Space for a future human spaceflight mission. This future mission seeks to highlight the potential of the Latin American community in space, showing how space exploration breaks down barriers,…
The safety features on the SpaceX Dragon are impressive, particularly the SuperDraco Launch Escape System. Unlike single use tower based systems, the SuperDraco offers continuous protection during launch yet is reusable and therefore more appropriate for modern human spaceflight.
During Ax-3 I conducted a technology demonstration with an Amazon Echo. I connected it to the ISS and NASA's network, enabled access, followed a scripted procedure and utilized Alexa. The test will help enable the groundwork for an Earth-independent AI-enabled voice assistant…
With the constant refinement of Axiom's astronaut training program, we have been able to cut down in some areas and increase others. For example, taking a photo or video from space is much more complicated than you might imagine, but it's a critical tool for people to share this…
The majority of the traditional space market is defined by satellites and satellite services, but Axiom space is working to open new markets enabled by human spaceflight. Without a robust space economy that justifies humans living and working in space, the cost of spaceflight…
Computer-aided design and manufacturing have greatly improved safety in commercial human space flight. Unlike space vehicles in the past, modern vehicles are being made in a mass way where variations between one vehicle and the next are becoming smaller and smaller, therefore…
The only time you can really appreciate the size of the Space Station is when you’re out on a spacewalk. The size of the Station, the three-dimensionality, and all the detail - the wires and cables and fluid lines and connectors - it’s pretty complicated. I remember thinking…
The #Ax4 crew had the opportunity to observe the thruster hot fire test carried out by our propulsion team. While the crew has previously experienced thruster fire, they got an inside look into the testing of our next-generation thruster design for #AxiomStation. @Astro_Wakata…
The current Axiom astronaut training consists of about a 10 month period. Roughly 40% of that time is spent with NASA training on how to live and work on the ISS. Another 40% is spent at SpaceX learning how to live and work on Dragon. The rest is a variety that includes payload…
Incorporating lessons learned from ISS equipment failures/malfunctions has pointed our focus towards ease of maintenance and future upgrades. With Axiom Space’s vertical integration and in-house design and manufacturing, we have optimum control over our space station hardware. We…
Over 25 years of operation onboard the ISS, we have learned an extensive amount about carbon dioxide control. A few years ago, ISS replaced CDRA (carbon dioxide removal assembly) with an improved 4BMS (4-bed molecular sieve system). Axiom Space has made significant improvements…
