Excited to share that we’ve revised the Axiom Station assembly sequence with NASA. This enables an independent free flyer nearly two years ahead of schedule! This move aligns with customer needs and supports U.S., NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration and #ISS objectives.

Smart move!
I think it's a good move; you reduce the problem scope by likely deferring ECLSS and Docking System design to later missions, as well as use a CBM port that will see less use with Cygnus going to docking (and hopefully DreamChaser not long after!). Gets you to orbit faster!
Really proud of this and what the team has accomplished at Axiom! Go AxH1 ....and AxPPTM! ....but most importantly GO PROP!!!!
Congratulations to Axiom Space and NASA for successfully revising the Axiom Station assembly sequence, enabling the independent free flyer nearly two years ahead of schedule! This innovative step not only supports U.S. and NASA’s long-term objectives but also paves the way for more opportunities in space stations and commercial spaceflight. At Blue Equator, we focus on developing advanced inertial navigation sensors and devices such as laser gyroscopes, fiber optic gyroscopes, high-definition cameras, and integrated navigation systems. Our technologies provide precise and reliable support for space exploration, ensuring the stability and safety of spacecraft in complex environments. We are proud to contribute to the success of space station construction and future missions. We look forward to future collaborations with Axiom Space and NASA as we continue to push the boundaries of space exploration! #BlueEquator #InertialNavigation #LaserGyroscopes #FiberOpticGyroscopes #HighDefinitionCameras #IntegratedNavigationSystems #AxiomSpace #AxiomStation #NASA #ISS Website: http://www.blueequator-ie.com/
This is good news Kam!
This is really exciting, Kam! Will Axiom be relying on NASA astronauts to conduct spacewalks and assembly, or Axiom will hire and train its own team of astronauts?
Congratulations to Kam Ghaffarian , one of Capitol Technology University’s 2X alum
This is great stuff! Congrats, I would love to work in a project like this.

6dThe most important hurdle to get through is to get the first part in-orbit. As soon as the station begins its operation, companies, investors, and governments will be able to see the value of the private-sector space stations. As Axiom Space leads the race of private space-stations they will benefit trust and network effects of first adapters. I bet Axiom has the potential to be one of the next $10B companies in the space industry in the coming years. This is great to see Kam Ghaffarian.
