"Axiom Space Readies Crewed Mission Launch from Cape Canaveral"

Axiom Space is preparing for the first all-European commercial crewed mission to the International Space Station, with the SpaceX Dragon crew capsule atop a Falcon 9 booster at Cape Canaveral. The mission, known as Ax-3, is a critical step in Axiom's plan to build the first private space station, with the first module set to launch in 2026 and be attached to the ISS. The crew, including the first Turkish astronaut, represents the Italian and Swedish space agencies, and the launch is seen as a significant advancement for commercial space flight.
