Axiom Space Ax-2 Mission Highlights | International Space Station

The astronauts of the Axiom Mission 2 (Ax-2) have returned to Earth from a successful 10-day mission in space. Here we show highlights of the second all-private astronaut mission to the International Space Station (ISS). 

The Ax-2 crew includes Axiom Space’s Director of Human Spaceflight and Commander Peggy Whitson (USA), a former NASA astronaut, Pilot John Shoffner (USA), and Mission Specialists Ali Alqarni and Rayyanah Barnawi, from the Saudi Space Commission (SSC). Both are members of the inaugural Saudi national astronaut class.
