During this time, they will conduct more than 60 scientific studies from 31 different countries. These include research in human health, Earth observation, biology, material science, and space education. Several experiments are being done in collaboration with NASA and ISRO. This mission is not only about science. The astronauts will also take part in educational outreach and commercial activities. With participation from countries like the USA, India, Poland, Hungary, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Nigeria, and the UAE, Ax-4 shows how international partnerships can make space more accessible. It’s a big step forward in private space missions and opens the door for more global participation in space exploration.
