UPDATE: Tune in on Saturday 20 January from 07:30 GMT (08:30 CET) to see ESA project astronaut Marcus Wandt dock to the International Space Station for his first mission, Muninn. Watch the action live on ESA Web TV 2 and ESA YouTube.
Marcus is the first of a new generation of European astronauts to fly on a commercial human spaceflight opportunity as part of Axiom Mission 3 (Ax-3).
Liftoff took place at 21:49 GMT/22:49 CET (16:49 ET local time). Marcus was propelled into space atop a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida, USA.
During the journey on the Dragon capsule to the International Space Station, Marcus is mission specialist and shares the ride with Walter Villadei from Italy, Alper Gezeravcı from Türkiye and Michael López-Alegría, a dual US-Spanish citizen.
Marcus and his crewmates will arrive to the Space Station around 36 hours after liftoff. The capsule is set to dock with the Space Station on Saturday 20 January at 10:45 GMT (11:45 CET). Follow the continuous live coverage of the docking two hours in advance and watch the ingress of the crew and the welcome ceremony on ESA Web TV and ESA YouTube channel.
The Muninn mission will officially begin as soon as Marcus goes through the hatch. ESA astronaut Andreas Mogensen will welcome him as commander of the Space Station. This will be the first time two Scandinavians live and work together in space.
