AXIOM 3 IT HAS REACHED THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION, BRINGING TO THREE THE NUMBER OF PRIVATE MISSIONS THAT HAVE REACHED THE ORBIT LABORATORY
The mission Axiom 3 achieved in the last few hours International Space Station (ISS)successfully complete thedock. This is the third completely private mission to reach the orbiting laboratory.
There are four astronauts on board: the commander Michael Lopez JoyNASA veteran; Alper Gezeravci, the first Turkish astronaut; Swedish Marcus Wandt and Italian Walter Villadeispacecraft pilot.
Depending on the weather conditions, the return is scheduled for February 3 with an emergency landing on the water off the coast of Florida.
Axiom 3, the Italian partners of the mission
The Axiom 3 mission was made strongly Italian by the presence of astronaut Walter Villadei. The mission’s Italian partners include Barilla, Technogym, GVM Care & Research, Giovanni Rana and Dallara Automobili.
Before the launch from Cape Canaveral (Thursday, January 18, 10:49 PM ET), Andrea Pontremoliad tue to the branchesparticipated in the webinar organized by Evolution Forum “Start Releases” together with the entrepreneur and trainer Gianluca Spadoni to talk about how to be and stay innovative. A few prestigious speakers who ensured the registration of more than 2,500 people.
“As Kennedy said, we go into space because it’s hard. Limitations, few resources, little time and little material ensure that you can come up with brilliant ideas”.
Solutions for space, also usable on Earth
“If a company wants to work on innovative products, services and processes – said Pontremoli – two fundamental elements are needed.
The first is the possibility of making mistakes: if you can’t make mistakes, just do what you know. The second is limitation, scarcity. And the constriction in space is enormous. There is no gravity, there is no water, there are very high or very low temperatures, terrifying radiation, electromagnetic interference, asteroids. They are a series of elements that force you to come up with new solutions.
I am convinced that going into space will help us find solutions to many of the problems we have here. Suffice it to say that the United States’ race to the moon has yielded approximately 300,000 patents“.
The experiments planned in orbit
About thirty scientific experiments are planned during the mission, thirteen of them Italian. The goal is to evaluate the response of the human organism in space: of resistance against tension to radiation protection.
There is also room for telemedicine and space clothing; We then move from the flow of cosmic particles to the use of a new protocol for improving the neuronal efficiency of those performing activities under stress.
