Mission managers have approved the Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4) crew to undock from the International Space Station's space-facing port on Monday, July 14, led by Commander Peggy Whitson.
The Ax-4 crew conducted various research activities, including analyzing blood samples, studying microalgae as food sources, and investigating nanomaterials for wearable health monitoring devices.
The crew will finalize science experiments on Saturday, including testing electrical muscle stimulation and suit fabrics for thermal comfort, before preparing for undocking on Monday.
Other activities on the International Space Station included crew members assisting with experiments, processing samples, and conducting evaluations to support research and day-to-day operations.
