NASA’s first private astronauts at the International Space Station are getting a bit of extra time in space for their multimillion-dollar fees.
The four-person Ax-1 crew — comprising Canadian investor and philanthropist Mark Pathy, American entrepreneur Larry Connor, former Israeli Air Force pilot Eytan Stibbe, and retired NASA astronaut Michael López-Alegría — was originally set to leave the station aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft at 10:35 a.m. ET on Tuesday, April 19.
“Mission Control has informed the Expedition 67 and Axiom Mission 1 crews aboard the International Space Station that because of unfavorable weather at the splashdown location for recovery of the Dragon Endeavour and the Ax-1 crew, the integrated operations team at NASA, Axiom Space, and SpaceX has postponed the spacecraft’s planned departure from the orbiting laboratory,” NASA said in a message posted online on Monday, April 18.
