Canadian investor Mark Pathy; Ohio real estate mogul Larry Connor — they are scheduled to leave the space station aboard the SpaceX Crew Dragon capsule on Saturday at 8:35 p.m. ET. They will spend a free day flying through orbit before re-entering the atmosphere and parachuting into a landing gear off the coast of Florida at approximately 1:46 p.m. ET on Sunday.

AX-1, which was launched on 8th Aprilwas originally described as a 10-day task, but the delay extended the task by about a week.

But the additional days the AX-1 crew spent in space due to weather won’t add to their personal total price, according to a NASA statement.
