The first all-private astronaut mission to the International Space Station, with a multinational crew of four, ushered in a new phase of microgravity research for new government and non-government entrants around the world. The mission included more than 25 science and research investigations planned during eight days aboard the ISS, as well as collection of pre- and post-launch physiological data. Among the unique attributes of the Ax-1 Mission is the ability for astronauts to curate their own research portfolios in collaboration with leading institutions around the world, in addition to supporting Axiom-managed investigations.
