When will astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla join the International Space Station? Update surfaced

New Delhi: India’s Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla and his team will leave a space trip from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center on June 10. He will join the International Space Station (ISS) at around 12:30 pm on June 11 under the Ax-4 mission. Earlier this launch was to be held on June 8, but due to weather failure and final preparations for spacecraft, it was shifted on 10 June. The mission is commanded by NASA’s former astronaut Paigi Whitson, while Shubhanshu Shukla will play the role of Pilot. He is accompanied by Slavose Ujnanski-Vishanvski of Poland and Tibor Kapu of Hungary also as mission experts.

What will Shubhanshu do after joining the space station?

Let us know that this mission will be completed through SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket and dragon spacecraft, which will be SpaceX’s 53rd Dragon Mission. Shubhanshu Shukla is one of the 4 astronaut candidates of India’s Gaganyaan program. After reaching the space station, Shubhanshu will do 7 scientists, which have been prepared by Indian educational institutions. Shubhanshu will also do 5 more experiments with NASA, which will be associated with human research. The SpaceX Dragon used for this mission is a new spacecraft, which will soon be announced by the crew.

Trump-rascal dispute will not affect the mission

Let us know that this mission is part of the partnership between India and NASA, which was announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the US tour in 2023. India has so far spent Rs 548 crore on this mission, including Shubhanshu and his backup group Captain Prashant Nair training. This mission is another golden step in India’s space history, which will not only promote scientific discoveries, but will also show the increasing strength in India’s space. Significantly, there is a huge controversy between SpaceX founder Alan Musk and US President Donald Trump, but it will not have any effect on this mission.
