This Is Exclusive LIVE: Historic Milestone For India, Shukla Becomes 1st Indian To Step In ISS
The crew will complete docking procedures and spend about 14 days aboard the station, conducting some 60 experiments — including studies on microalgae, sprouting salad seeds, and the hardiness of microscopic tardigrades in space.
SpaceX’s Axiom-4 mission, carrying ISRO astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla, docked at the International Space Station around 4.45 pm IST. The Ax-4 crew successfully lifted off on June 25 into space onboard SpaceX’s Dragon aircraft, after nearly a month of delays and postponements.
Aboard the spacecraft along with Shukla are mission specialists Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary, and commander Peggy Whitson of the United States, a former NASA astronaut who now works for the company Axiom Space– which organizes private spaceflights, among other things.
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.
The much-anticipated launch of Axiom Mission 4 has finally taken place. After a series of delays caused by weather and technical issues, the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket roared to life in the early hours of Wednesday, carrying four astronauts, including India’s Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, onboard a brand-new Crew Dragon capsule. The mission lifted off at 12:01 PM from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Axiom Mission 4, or Ax-4, is a private spaceflight mission organized by Axiom Space in partnership with SpaceX and NASA. The mission is headed for the International Space Station, where the crew is scheduled to dock around 7:00 AM on Thursday. The team will spend up to 14 days aboard the ISS, conducting scientific research, technology demonstrations, and outreach efforts aimed at expanding commercial human spaceflight.
