The Ax-1 crew has begun their work aboard the International Space Station (ISS). They are adjusting to working in microgravity and becoming familiar with the various aspects of living onboard the station. For most of the day, the crew prepared the science and equipment needed on the orbiting lab as they head into a full week of research and outreach activities.

Ax-1 Astronaut Eytan Stibbe spoke with Israeli President Isaac Herzog on Sunday via video call. Stibbe is Israel’s second astronaut and the first Israeli to ever make it to the ISS.

Flight Day One was launch and Flight Day Two was docking and arrival.
