SpaceX has indefinitely delayed the launch of Axiom Space’s fourth private crewed mission to the International Space Station (ISS), which was scheduled for this week. The flight will debut the fifth and final Crew Dragon capsule, and will further increase the record for cumulative time spent in space by an American astronaut.

SpaceX has three Starlink missions planned for the week, while Rocket Lab has launched the fourth batch of imaging satellites for its Japan-based customer. Three launches are scheduled within 24 hours on a busy Friday, including a launch from China, while the second batch of satellites for Amazon’s Project Kuiper megaconstellation has been delayed to this coming Monday.
