India’s First Astronaut to ISS
India will make history in 2025 with Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla piloting the Axiom-4 (Ax-4) mission, becoming the first Indian astronaut to the ISS. This mission, a collaboration between ISRO and Axiom Space, marks India's second human spaceflight after Rakesh Sharma's 1984 mission. Shukla will join an international crew, led by astronaut Peggy Whitson, to conduct five microgravity experiments over 14 days. Using advanced SpaceX technology, the mission represents India’s growing role in space exploration, strengthening partnerships with the U.S. and other nations, and contributing to India’s future Gaganyaan space mission.
