Launched from NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre in Florida, the spaceship owned by SpaceX carrying Turkey’s first space traveller, Alper Gezeravcı, was successfully completed. Gezeravcı will undertake a number of scientific experiments during his 14-day stay at the International Space Station (ISS).
As a part of the Axiom Mission 3 crew, Alper will collaborate alongside Walter Villadei of Italy and Marcus Wandt of Sweden, as well as Michael Lopez-Algeria of Spain and the United States.
Following his designation as the “First Turkish Astronaut,” Alper Gezeravcı’s initial remarks during his space mission under the Axiom-3 (Ax-3) programme, “The future is in the skies,” sparked interest in the initial remarks made by other astronauts.
Alper Gezeravcı, a Turkish astronaut, began his space mission when a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launched from pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Centre in Florida at 4:49 p.m. U.S. time (12:49 a.m. Turkish time). Four astronauts from Turkey, Sweden, Italy, and Spain were on board the SpaceX-affiliated Axiom Mission 3, which was launched to the International Space Station.
