AXIOM-4 Launch Success: 1 Indian in location in 40 years is 1 Indian; Tomorrow will be the first time in ISS. Bharat News

After several delays, the Axiom-4 (AX-4) mission was finally launched on Wednesday as the 2.31AM Eastern time (12.01pm IST) and India’s group captain Sukhanshu Shukla along with his three crew along with three crew teams as Astronaut Astronaut Paigi Whites (US).AX-4 designated pilot, Shukla is only the second Indian to reach the space and is the first to serve in an important operating role in an international space station (ISS) mission.

In the run-up for the mission, Shukla said: “Even stars are attainable.” He reiterated that he would not just take equipment and equipment, but “the hopes and dreams of one billion hearts”. Mission rode a SpaceX Falcon -9 rocket from Complex 39A launched at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The crew will now travel to the Parikrama Laboratory at a new SpaceX Dragon spacecraft. The targeted docking time is on Thursday, 26 June at around 7 pm (IST) at around 4.30 pm.

The occasion of this launch comes after officials of NASA and Roskosmos (Russian Space Agency), officials discussed the recent repair work in the transfer tunnel in most segments of the Zvezda service module of the Orbital Laboratory. Based on the evaluation, NASA and Roskosmos agreed to further reduce the pressure for the 100 mm mercury into the transfer tunnel, and the team would continue to evaluate the moving forward. NASA said that the security agency and the highest priority for Rososmos.NASA administrator Janet Petro said, “NASA and Rososmos have a long history of collaboration and cooperation on ISS. This professional working relationship has allowed agencies to reach a common technical approach and will now move forward X -4 launch and docking.” For this mission, NASA is responsible for integrated operations, which begins during the spacecraft’s approach to the space station, continues to ride in the laboratory revolving in the laboratory that conducts science, education and commercial activities, and once leaves the station of the spacecraft.So far, while the launch and separation of the Dragon Capsules has been successful, the ISS travel is not a straight line. During the next 24 to 28 hours, the Dragon will execute a range of engine burn using its onboard thrusters. These enhance and adjust its orbit, allowing it to be phased in alignment along the path of the space station.These exercises have been placed second. Even a slight delay can affect the rendezavas window. Dragon uses GPS data, radar and its own sensors to continuously track both its position and ISS.Once the dragon is within the range, it begins a slow and measured approach. It stops at many pre-set points-which is called Vepoint-400 meters and progressively moves closely. In each stage, the ground controller and onboard system assess whether to move forward.At a distance of about 20 meters, the Dragon will create its last view. Using laser-based sensors and a suit of cameras, it simply aligns with the docking port on the harmony module of the station. The spacecraft then proceeds in a few centimeters per second until it contacts.The first phase is a soft occupation, where magnets gently pull the capsules into the position. This is then a hard captured: Mechanical latch and hooks secure the spacecraft, and a pressure-tang seal is formed between the dragon and the ISS.Once the docking is completed, the crew is not allowed to immediately get out of their vehicle and enter the station. Engineers on the ground conduct a series of leakage checks and confirm that the pressure inside the docking vestibule is stable. Once verified, the hatch between the dragon and the ISS will open.The AX-4 astronauts then float in the space station, congratulating its current residents. In the next two weeks, they will conduct several scientific experiments, including biomedical studies that can inform treatment for diseases such as diabetes. For Mission Pilot Shukla, it is not only an individual milestone, but is a proud moment for India’s extended role in global space exploration.While India sent its first astronaut into space – Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma – four decades ago, Shukla’s mission represents a quantum jump. He is not only flying in space, he is serving as a pilot on one of the most research-intensive commercial missions for ISS.The four -member will complete more than 60 science experiments, including seven from India. These include the effects of microgravity on metabolic diseases, use of muscles and plants, microbial behavior, cognitive function and material testing. Researchers from more than 30 countries have contributed to the mission payload.The crew consists of a commander as a commander, the experienced astronaut Paigi Whitson (US), Polish Engineer Soloz Uznoski, Hungarian researcher Tibor Kapu, and Shukla, an IAF test pilot, whose role is part of a comprehensive Indian ambition to get a spaceflight experience before the Gaganan program, a comprehensive Indian ambition, the first crude mission of the country.SpaceX’s dragon capsules, designated C213, once in orbit, will take about 28 hours to reach ISS. At the completion of its science program, the crew will fall down from the coast of California and will be printed.Shukla’s responsibilities include monitoring important flight systems, executing manual docking procedures if necessary and supporting the safety of the crew during launch and returns. Their comprehensive preparation extends to the months of training with Axiom, NASA, ESA and Spacex for this mission, and as part of Russia’s Gagarin Center Gaganan, construct more than 2,000 flight hours as a test pilot.
