Beyond the atmospheric horizon, there are revolutionary opportunities for you to touch your core markets and engage new audiences. With so many possibilities, you have the flexibility to choose which piece of the Axiom Space mission best tells your story. Axiom Space is the private space company of choice for governments and commercial partners around the world — and the ‘space’ available to all is massive. Currently, we host people, private companies, governments, researchers, and manufacturers in low-Earth orbit (LEO) as part of our exclusive private missions to the International Space Station. In the process, we provide access for your organization to be part of redefining home, humanity, and our future in space. You have the ability to unlock opportunities on a global scale and foster awareness of urgent, global issues. Whether it's environmental consciousness, emerging commercial business, humanitarian work, science and education causes, or ocean preservation, Axiom Space missions provide a platform for brands to take action on any cause.
In the near future, Axiom Space will provide unique infrastructure in space and serve as a major provider in the quickly growing space economy through Axiom Station, the world’s first commercial space station, and the Axiom Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit. We will help transform the $30T manufacturing and pharma sectors using techniques available only in microgravity and provide additional in-space solutions and infrastructure. UBS, Morgan Stanley, Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs estimate the sector will be $1 trillion to $3.5 trillion within 10-20 years, and Axiom Space is providing early access to this industry for our commercial and private partners to get a head start.

Axiom Space partnered with Esther Marquis, costume designer for the critically acclaimed television show "For All Mankind", to design the cover layer for their new spacesuit. Axiom Space believes that the design of the spacesuit is an essential part of the overall experience of space travel and aims to create a spacesuit that is both functional and visually stunning. Marquis worked closely with Axiom Space's team of engineers and designers to develop a cover layer for the new spacesuit in order to present Axiom Space’s Next-Generation Extravehicular Mobility Unit (AxEMU) spacesuit while hiding the critical components and Intellectual Property.
Esther Marquis is a renowned costume designer known for her work on "For All Mankind," which tells an alternate history of the space race. Her designs for the show capture the spirit and innovation of the 1960s and 70s and bring them to life in a way that is both authentic and modern. The partnership between Axiom Space and Esther Marquis is an exciting development in the commercial spaceflight industry. By bringing together the expertise of a top costume designer and a leading spaceflight company, the team was able to create a spacesuit that not only meets the functional requirements of space travel but also captures the imagination of the public.
When planning a mission to the International Space Station (ISS), timing is everything – timing the launch, the flight, when to dock, and complex crew schedules. These decisions depend on many external factors such as technical considerations, orbital mechanics, variations in the weather, and crew schedules. Timing is also a key factor in ensuring the astronauts are at peak performance. This is where Timeshifter becomes a key partner for Axiom Space. Timeshifter translates complex circadian science into products and services to give people control of their circadian rhythms, and is trusted when circadian control is critical for performance, safety, and health.
One of the key factors to ensure peak performance is sleep timing, and Axiom Space astronauts are working with Timeshifter to ensure they will be ready before, during, and after the countdown starts. Appropriately timed light and dark exposure are central to the Timeshifter plan. Light can shift the circadian clock either earlier or later depending on the timing of the exposure and, if timed incorrectly, can shift the circadian clock in the wrong direction. The astronauts are provided with a detailed plan of when to see light (ideally daylight but high levels of blue-enriched internal lights will also work) and when to avoid light, by exposure to dimmer, redder-looking light, wearing sunglasses or scheduled sleep. Additional advice is designed to support the shifting sleep schedule including when to use or avoid caffeine, if the astronauts choose to, and when and how long to nap. Each Timeshifter plan not only includes the right time to employ these interventions, based on circadian science, but also takes into account existing commitments and constraints from the astronauts’ busy schedules.
Axiom Space has partnered with Omega Watches to develop custom-made versions of their watches for Axiom Space crew and partners to be sent on Axiom Space Missions. Omega's Speedmaster watches have a long history with space exploration, as they were worn by astronauts during the first moon landing mission in 1969. The X-33 model is a newer version of the Speedmaster designed specifically for space missions and features advanced technology for use in zero-gravity environments. As part of the partnership, Omega will produce special editions of the Speedmaster X-33 and Moonwatch watches that will be exclusively available to Axiom Space crew members. The watches will be modified to withstand the extreme conditions of space travel and will be used during Axiom Space private missions to the International Space Station (ISS) and other destinations. The partnership aims to promote space exploration and inspire people around the world to pursue their dreams of space travel.
Axiom Space worked in collaboration with Jose Andres and Think Food Group to create tailored dishes for Axiom Astronauts. The collaboration arose from the friendship between Chef Andrés and fellow Spaniard and veteran astronaut Ax-1 Commander Michael López-Alegría. To prepare the crew for the scheduled 10-day mission of Ax-1, Axiom Space teamed up with Chef José Andrés of ThinkFoodGroup, a brand that shares our ethos of spurring innovations and striving for excellence.
In the months leading up to the flight, Ax-1 crew members took part in sensory tests with Chef Andrés and members of the ThinkFoodGroup culinary team. These tests helped the ThinkFoodGroup team to devise meals well-suited to the astronauts’ dietary preferences. The Axiom and ThinkFoodGroup teams worked closely with scientists in the NASA Food Lab to ensure the items meet nutrition and preparation guidelines. For the Ax-1 mission, the specially crafted meals leaned on flavors and traditional dishes of Commander López-Alegría’s native Spain, and for their first meal in space, the Ax-1 astronauts enjoyed Arroz Estelle Valencia, a classic Spanish rice dish. Later in the mission, the crew was able to eat Secreto de Cerdo with Pisto, a prized cut of Ibérico Pork with tomatoes, onions, eggplant, and peppers, and Chicken and Mushroom Paella, Spain's quintessential rice dish.
Axiom Space has teamed up with G.H. Mumm, a renowned champagne producer, to launch the Mumm Cordon Rouge Stellar, the first-ever champagne bottle and tasting experience designed specifically for space travel and human spaceflight. The partnership aims to bring a taste of Earth's culture and customs to space and to enhance the overall spaceflight experience for astronauts wherever humankind explores new territories. The companies hope to inspire new ways of thinking about the role of culture in space and to encourage the development of new technologies and innovations that will make space travel more comfortable and enjoyable for astronauts.
Initiated in 2017, the Mumm Cordon Rouge Stellar has been specially engineered to withstand the unique conditions of space travel, including zero gravity, high-pressure changes, and extreme temperatures. The bottle is made of a lightweight and durable material, and the champagne has been carefully crafted to maintain its taste and carbonation in space. This ambitious project has now achieved full compliance with space cargo specifications and AOC Champagne regulations. Following on this achievement, Mumm Cordon Rouge Stellar will join upcoming Axiom Space crewed missions to low-Earth orbit and extend the collaboration to Axiom Station, the world’s first commercial space station, to test and discover the tasting ritual in the real conditions of space. By offering a taste of Earth's culture in space, the Mumm Cordon Rouge Stellar is not only enhancing the spaceflight experience but also promoting the importance of cultural exchange in space exploration.
