About a day after launch, the Axiom-3 Dragon spacecraft will dock to the International Space Station with Axiom Space’s third private mission to the outpost.
Aboard will be Axiom Space astronaut Michael Lopez-Alegria, Walter Viladei of Italy’s Ministry of Defence, Turkish astronaut Alper Gezeravci and European Space Agency astronaut Marcus Wandt. They are expected to stay at the ISS for about two weeks.
Orbital Velocity is designed to be "living time capsule" about the International Space Station.
This project is an attempt to bridge an information gap between space agencies and companies, as well as a public that supports space endeavors with their tax dollars. Despite the importance of the space station, the general public doesn't always know what is happening aboard this amazing complex on a regular basis. Research being conducted isn't always readily available and what information is out there can sometimes be difficult to understand. Some people aren't even aware there is an active space program, let alone a space station.
Orbital Velocity hopes to change that by building a database of information through blogs, a website, small videos and longer documentary-like series'.
