In Lucknow, the family of astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla is set to meet Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. The meeting is in honor of Shukla, an Indian Air Force Group Captain, being selected as the pilot for Axiom Mission 4. His parents and sister will attend the meeting. The spacecraft successfully docked at the International Space Station. Shukla’s selection marks a significant moment, as he is the first Indian in space since Rakesh Sharma. The mission, aboard the SpaceX Dragon, includes astronauts from various countries and is conducting scientific experiments in space. Shukla described the launch as a ‘magical’ experience.
