India celebrates sending its first astronaut into space after 41 years

The Jubilant Indians celebrate successfully launching Axiom-4 (AKS-4) mission, which has removed the multi-state crew, including the Indian Astronaut.

Captain of the group Shubhanshu ShuklaWho pilotes the mission, only the other Indians became traveling into space.

To a little over 26 hours – when space spacecraft at the International Space Station (BrGood) – Grupni Captain Shukla will become the first Indian to visit the Laboratory in orbits.

His journey comes 41 years after the Cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma became the first Indian who flew into space in Russian Soy 1984. years.

Led by former NASA Astronaut Peggi Whitson – a space veteran who was the commander of the ISS, spent more than 675 days in space and made 10 spacecraft – AKS-4 raised from NASA space center in Florida at 02:31 GMT At 14:31 GMT; At 02:31 GMT;

Travel to the ISS AKS-4 – a commercial flight managing private companies based in Houston Space Space – is cooperation between NASAs, India about the Space Agency of the Isro and the European Space Agency (ESA).

His four-member team also includes Slavos Connection-Visnievski from Poland and the Tibor Hat from Hungary. They will also lead their countries to space after more than four decades. Astronauts spent weeks in quarantine before Wednesday.

The flight created a huge interest in India with an IRO, who says that the general experience of Shukla will get during his journey in the ISS will immensely help them with its efforts.

The 39-year-old was among the four office officers of the Air Force in which the trip was traveled to the first plan of human premises in the country, scheduled for 2027. Year. India also announced ambitious plans to establish a space station until 2035. years and sent astronaut to the moon.

Isro, who conducted a series of tests to prepare to go to space, paid 5bn rupees ($ 59 million; £ 43m) to provide the seat of Group Captain Shukla on AKS-4 and his training.

Starting, using Spacex dragon capsules on the 9th rocket falcon, is broadcast live by axiom space and NASA and celebrations in India started.

In the group captain Shuclov’s house town of Luckov, his parents joined hundreds of students to watch the elevator. They were welcomed by a musical band on arriving at school and saw them breaking into applause while the rocket was erected.

He was born on 10. October 1985. in the Northern city of Luckov, group Captain Shukla joined Indian Air Force as a pilot fight in 2006. years.

He flew Migs, Sukhois, Dorniers, Jaguars and Hawks and has more than 2,000 hours of flying experience.

Describing last year as “nothing that is transformed”, group Captain Shukla recently said at the press conference that he had no words to describe his excitement.

“So far, it was an amazing journey, but the best is yet to come,” he said.

“As I enter space, I only carry instruments and equipment, transporting hopes and dreams of billions of hearts.

“I’m looking for all India to pray for the success of our mission,” he added.

In addition to mission piloting, the Indian astronaut will have a busy schedule for two weeks on no.

Given the huge interest in flight, Izro said to organize events to communicate with Indian students and answer their questions while floating in space. Interaction with Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also on the cards.

But most of the time, the four-member crew will perform 60 scientific experiments, of which seven come from India.

Former NASA Mila Mitra scientists say that the experiments of the israis will help improve our understanding of space and its effects on biology and micro gravity.

One of the key experiments, it explains, will explore the influence of a space opportunity on six varieties of crop seeds.

Another excriminum includes a growing three soy of microalges that could be used as food, fuel or even in support systems and it will help identify most suitable for breeding in the microgradion, she says.

Isro projects will also explore how Tardigrade – micro-animals on Earth can survive extreme environments – would survive in space.

Other experiments aim to identify muscle loss occur in space and how it can be treated; Both the physical and cognitive impact of using computer screens in micro-motionism.
