The Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4) crew completed NASA training, marking a significant milestone as they prepare for their journey to the International Space Station. The four-person crew’s completion of the NASA training program stands as a testament to their hardwork and the collaborative spirit that drives human space exploration.
Since August 2024, the Ax-4 crew has trained at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, focusing on space station operations. Their preparation included a blend of classroom instruction, simulator exercises, and full-team scenarios within realistic mockups of space station modules. This hands-on training covered everything from payload operations to safety protocols, ensuring the crew is prepared to live and work in the microgravity environment of the station and meet their mission objectives.
