Three international astronauts will join former NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson, who will be the Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4) commander: pilot Shubhanshu Shukla of India, Polish mission specialist Sławosz Uznański of the European Space Agency (ESA), and mission specialist Tibor Kapu of Hungary. This will be the first time that a Polish astronaut will head to space in more than 40 years.
