The company SpaceX has sent a new Crew Dragon ship 'Grace' into orbit as part of the fourth private mission Ax-4. The ship is headed to the International Space Station (ISS), where the crew will conduct about 60 scientific experiments, including research in medicine, robotics, and sustainable technologies.
👨🚀 The crew consists of citizens from India, Poland, and Hungary — each of them became the second astronaut from their country to go into orbit. This highlights the growing global participation in commercial space projects.
🌐 Like blockchain, commercial space is erasing borders. More and more countries and private players are participating in the development of new technologies, where Web3 and decentralized finance (DeFi) are already starting to find applications: from tracking satellites through blockchain to ensuring transparency in space research.
📡 The Ax-4 mission is another step towards making future technologies, including cryptocurrencies and NFTs, an integral part of the space economy.
