Axiom Space private astronaut missions support breakthroughs in space, bringing benefits to every human, everywhere.
The International Space Art and Poetry Contest is a collaboration between Axiom astronaut John Shoffner, Limitless Space Institute, The Perseid Foundation, and the ISS National Lab, in which students and educators around the world are invited to submit drawings, paintings, or poems. The submissions showcase their ideas of what it would look like to live in space. Art and poems chosen from each of four age categories are printed on the International Space Station. Axiom Space astronauts create a video and photographs then return the physical prints from space to their creators. This program inspires student creativity and interest in space and helps create the next generation of explorers.
JAMSS Odor Visualization is a tech demo developed by JAMSS that will use two QCM (quartz crystal microbalance) sensors to detect odors in the ISS pressurized environment. The data collected will then be used to visualize the quality of life for space travelers with future applications.
The Japan Manned Space Systems Corporation (JAMSS) photocatalyst air purification device will launch on Ax-1 for a technical demonstration to verify the performance of the improved filter. This experiment also will deploy a control device without photocatalytic LEDs, to evaluate the JAMSS photocatalytic filter. With an improved air filter, the JAMSS device will be able to clean the air on the ISS and remove cabin odor, using the power of light to safely convert volatile compounds in the air into carbon dioxide and water with the goal of improving the quality of life for living and working in space. JAMSS will be the only Japanese company with research on the Ax-1 mission.
This HUNOR project aims to promote space research and communications technologies in schools, with active involvement and participation of the Hungarian astronaut on the ISS via ham radio. The crewmember will conduct activities involving a smartphone’s acceleration sensor, gamma radiation measurement, and a water experiment, to help students gain an understanding of space science.
