It was the fourth private astronaut mission funded by Houston-based Axiom Space and the second commanded by veteran astronaut Peggy Whitson.

The next astronaut launch to the International Space Station (ISS) is just around the corner.

The astronauts arrived at the station on June 26, about 28.5 hours after launch from NASA's Kennedy Space Center atop SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket on June 25. Over the last two weeks, the crew conducted more than 60 experiments focused on microalgae, microbial growth and human health and have travelled over 10 million kilometres in space.
