Applications from American companies are accepted until 30 May and the tasks themselves take up to 14 days. The Special Astronic Tasks (PAM) program is part of the NASA strategy to transfer to the ISS to commercial partners. Such flights develop and conduct research on companies such as Axiom Space, which has already successfully completed four tasks. For the first time, NASA allowed the mission commander not only the former astronaut NASA, but also a veteran of Canada, European or Japanese space organizations with experience at the station.
Axiom has survived this area so far, but the competition is increasing: it plans to compete for extensive contracts.
