NASA Invites Media to SpaceX’s 32nd Resupply Launch to Space Station

Media accreditation is open for the next launch to deliver NASA science investigations, supplies, and equipment to the International Space Station.

NASA and SpaceX are targeting no earlier than Monday, April 21, to launch the SpaceX Dragon spacecraft on the company’s Falcon 9 rocket from Launch Complex 39A at the agency’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. This launch is the 32nd SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the orbital laboratory for the agency.

The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Dragon spacecraft lifts off from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Nov. 4, 2024, on the company’s 31st commercial resupply services mission for the agency to the International Space Station.

Credentialing to cover prelaunch and launch activities is open to U.S. media. The application deadline for U.S. citizens is 11:59 p.m., EDT, Friday, April 4. All accreditation requests must be submitted online at: https://media.ksc.nasa.gov

Credentialed media will receive a confirmation email after approval. NASA’s media accreditation policy is available online. For questions about accreditation, or to request special logistical support, email: ksc-media-accreditat@mail.nasa.gov. For other questions, please contact NASA Kennedy’s newsroom at: 321-867-2468.

Para obtener información sobre cobertura en español en el Centro Espacial Kennedy o si desea solicitor entrevistas en español, comuníquese con Antonia Jaramillo o Messod Bendayan a: antonia.jaramillobotero@nasa.gov o messod.c.bendayan@nasa.gov.

Each resupply mission to the station delivers scientific investigations in the areas of biology and biotechnology, Earth and space science, physical sciences, and technology development and demonstrations. Cargo resupply from U.S. companies ensures a national capability to deliver scientific research to the space station, significantly increasing NASA’s ability to conduct new investigations aboard humanity’s laboratory in space.

Along with food and essential equipment for the crew, Dragon is delivering a variety of experiments, including a demonstration of refined maneuvers for free-floating robots. Dragon also carries an enhanced air quality monitoring system that could protect crew members on exploration missions to the Moon and Mars, and two atomic clocks to examine fundamental physics concepts, such as relativity, and test worldwide synchronization of precision timepieces.

Astronauts have occupied the space station continuously since November 2000. In that time, 283 people from 23 countries have visited the orbital outpost. The space station is a springboard to NASA’s next great leap in exploration, including future missions to the Moon under the Artemis campaign, and human exploration of Mars.

Cliniphai Creates AI-Powered Clinical Trial Localization and Translation Technology of the Future Designed for the Life Sciences Industry

Named Athena, it combines multiple LLMs with human-in-the-loop control

Great Falls, Montana and Kyiv, Ukraine – Cliniphai, an AI Agent and Framework platform purpose-built to solve complex challenges in life sciences, today announces the launch of Athena, an AI-driven clinical localization and translation workbench designed specifically for the life sciences, healthcare, and pharmaceutical industries. Unlike standard translation engines, Athena provides an adaptive, guided, and fully transparent process to provide high-quality, regulatory-compliant translations that enhance both speed and accuracy.

Built to meet the needs of eCOA providers, clinical trial site and recruitment organizations, and clinical research organizations (CROs), Athena serves as a best-in-class AI-powered workbench that combines multiple large language models (LLMs). Athena maintains human-in-the-loop control to ensure the highest translation quality in a guided, not automated experience.

“My partners and I set out to build a tool that we needed – that our industry needs – to truly solve the challenges of clinical translation and localization,” said Jason Martin, MS, MBA, Chairman and Co-Founder at Cliniphai. “Athena is our answer. This is the only workbench of its kind that is designed to empower expert translators with AI-driven support, guided parsing, and full workflow automation. You can’t rely solely on machines in the life sciences industry, but with Athena, we are making it easier to achieve accuracy, consistency, and compliance at an unexpected pace.”

Key Differentiators That Set Athena Apart

Athena by Cliniphai combines AI-driven efficiency with human expertise, delivering a guided, adaptive, and compliance-focused translation experience tailored for life sciences. Key differentiators include the following:

Adaptive and Context-Aware Translations: Athena understands dialects, terminology, and context, and it gives users the ability to add instructions, choose available dialects, simplify language, and maintain consistency across large-scale projects.
Auto-Review: Athena automates the guidance and management process, maintaining tone, terminology, and compliance.
Accelerated Rescue Translations: Athena is designed to compress timelines and handle high-stakes, large-scale translation projects on tight turnarounds.
Best-in-Class Service: Built with clever integration of proprietary AI-enabled services on top of industry leading workflow management, Athena can operate with scale to ensure smooth project handling, customer support, and compliance.
Powered by Real-World Expertise: Cliniphai has built deep operational experience across clinical studies and is working with trusted partners that have spent decades ensuring linguistic accuracy in life sciences.
Seamless API Integration: Fully accessible via API, Cliniphai allowing life sciences companies to integrate Athena directly into their existing platforms, workflows, and regulatory processes.
On-Premise Deployment for Maximum Security: Athena can be installed directly within your organization’s infrastructure, allowing you to maintain complete control over data, eliminate external communication delays, and integrate seamlessly with your existing workflows and processes.

A new standard for translations

Cliniphai’s globally-located team speaks more than 10 languages in-house, bringing a global perspective to clinical and regulatory translation challenges. Additionally, the company’s 17-person development team is actively refining the software development lifecycle and using AI, combined with the proper scientific acumen, to exceed industry expectations.

“Poor translations have led to millions in lawsuits in our industry, and Cliniphai is committed to ensuring this never happens to its customers. No matter the translation or localization need, it shouldn’t be a slow, painful process. So far, the feedback from our testing group has been very positive,” added Vladimir Mats, PhD, CEO and Co-Founder, Cliniphai. “Our goal from day one was to redefine clinical translation and localization workflows for the pharmaceutical and biotech industry, and today it becomes a reality.”

Martin added, “The team explored multiple entry points as an AI Agent and Framework platform purpose-built to solve complex challenges in life sciences, and after various prototypes, we decided to build translation and localization first. This is simply the beginning, and Cliniphai’s future is very bright.”
