Dhe US space agency Nasa and the private company Axiom Space have agreed to send private individuals to the International Space Station ISS once more. “Axiom Mission 2” (Ax-2) is planned for the second quarter of 2023, said NASA.
In April, a purely private crew of four men flew to the ISS for the first time for around a week on “Ax-1”. Also this time four people should fly once more, it was said. The trip is once more organized by Axiom Space, Nasa and SpaceX, a company owned by billionaire Elon Musk. In addition to scientific tests, the mission is also intended to explore the future potential of space tourism.
