SpaceX’s Falcon 9 Booster landing perfectly after Ax-3 launch!🚀🎯 The Axiom 3 mission successfully launched its multinational crew to the International Space Station (ISS) on January 18, 2024. This third Axiom Space launch to the ISS, a significant milestone in European space exploration, featured a crew led by Axiom’s Chief Astronaut Michael Lopez-Alegria, a Spanish and US citizen and former NASA astronaut. He was joined by Turkish air force colonel Alper Gezeravci, Italian air force colonel Walter Villadei, and Marcus Wandt from Sweden, representing the European Space Agency (ESA). Unique to this mission was the first-time purchase of all crew seats by national agencies. The crew will conduct 30 experiments, focusing on the effects of microgravity on the human body and industrial processes. They join seven other ISS crew members from Japan, Denmark, the U.S., and Russia. A highlight of the mission was the successful landing of the Falcon 9 booster, B1080-5, at Landing Zone 1, as seen in this video. Demonstrating the efficiency of return-to-launch-site (RTLS) landings. This approach helps minimize the use of marine assets, an innovation in space missions. Comment 🙌 if you read the caption!
