The first all-European private astronaut mission, Ax-3, finally returned to Earth after spending an extra six days in space due to stormy weather near Florida. The crew successfully splashed down off the Florida coast after conducting more than 30 experiments in microgravity, including biomedical research, sleep, bone health, space weather, and cooking pasta in space. The mission marked the first all-European human spaceflight to the ISS with a crew from Italy, Turkey, and Sweden, and it was the second Axiom Space mission for the crew's commander, Michael López-Alegría.
