After several delays, SpaceX Falcon 9 spacecraft with the Crew Dragon capsule and four astronauts– including India’s Shubhanshu Shukla– lifted off on Wednesday. Axiom Mission 4, or Ax-4, is scheduled to launch from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Centre in Florida at 2:31 am (6:31 am GMT).
India’s Shubhanshu Shukla is travelling to the International Space Station on an American commercial mission with three other astronauts, carrying the dreams of 1.4 billion Indians to send a second ‘Gaganyatri’ to space after a gap of over 40 years.
Shukla, who is the mission pilot, is India’s second astronaut going into space — four decades after Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma made history in 1984. The 39-year-old fighter pilot was chosen by ISRO as the prime astronaut for this historic flight.
