The trip to ISS aboard Ax-4 - a commercial flight operated by Houston-based private company Axiom Space - is a collaborative effort between Nasa, Isro and European Space Agency (Esa). Tuesday's flight will be launched using the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule on a Falcon 9 rocket.

Why are they calling this an Axiom/NASA/Isro/ESA flight when SpaceX is doing the heavy lifting? Shouldn't SpaceX get top billing here?

will be spending two weeks on the ISS.

How do they know they won’t be stranded for 8 or 9 months?

What they mean to say is the launch will be a SpaceX Falcon 9 and SpaceX Dragon capsule PAID for by Axiom Space.
