NASA, Axiom Space, and SpaceX continue reviewing launch opportunities for Axiom Mission 4 to the International Space Station. NASA has made the decision to stand down from a launch\u00a0on Sunday, June 22, and will target a new launch date in the coming days.<\/p>\n

The space agency needs additional time to\u00a0continue evaluating<\/a>\u00a0International Space Station operations after recent repair work in the aft (back) most segment of the orbital laboratory\u2019s Zvezda service module. Because of the space station\u2019s interconnected and interdependent systems, NASA wants to ensure the station is ready for additional crew members, and the agency is taking the time necessary to review data.\u00a0<\/p>\n

NASA, Axiom Space, and SpaceX appreciate the historic nature of this mission for the nations of India, Poland, and Hungary, as well as the world. The crew remains in quarantine in Florida, and the astronauts stand ready to launch when the station is ready to receive them.<\/p>\n

Peggy Whitson, former NASA astronaut and director of human spaceflight at Axiom Space, will command the commercial mission, while ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla will serve as pilot. The two mission specialists are ESA (European Space Agency) project astronaut S\u0142awosz Uzna\u0144ski-Wi\u015bniewski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary.<\/p>\n

SpaceX\u2019s Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon spacecraft remain healthy on the launch pad at Launch Complex 39A at NASA\u2019s Kennedy Space Center in Florida.<\/p>\n
