Liftoff of Axiom Mission 3

ESA project astronaut Marcus Wandt from Sweden blasted into space tonight from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA, at 21:49 GMT (22:49 CET, 16:49 local time). A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched the Axiom Mission 3 (Ax-3) crew of four astronauts from launch pad 39A.

“Going to space and exploration in general is a very good tool to bring people together and drive progress. It is a great way to make cooperation happen and to spread knowledge,” says Marcus.

Follow Marcus’s journey on the Muninn website, check our launch kit in English or Swedish and connect with Marcus on his Instagram and X accounts, and on ESA social media channels.
