Bio
Axiom Mission 1 launched on April 8, 2022 aboard Crew Dragon Endeavour, with Connor serving as Pilot.
The Axiom mission used Crew Dragon for an independently organized orbital to the International , combining station operations with research and outreach. Larry Connor therefore has 1 completed spaceflight; backup, training, canceled, and future assignments are excluded from that total. The mission connected Connor's professional experience with direct work aboard a crewed spacecraft and a completed flight assignment. The flight converted that professional background into direct experience of launch, weightlessness, Earth viewing, , and recovery.
