Axiom-4 Crew Enters Dragon Spacecraft, Undocking From ISS In 2 Hours

The epic journey of any Indian in space in the 21st century is beginning at its end. India's Gaganyatri, Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, is inside the space capsule that will bring him back to Earth after spending nearly three weeks in space.

India's cosmic leap's phase one is ending with the Axiom-4 mission, which is also referred to as Mission Akash Ganga, but this was the easy part. Now, when Astronaut Shukla returns, the hard part will begin when he gets down to translate his learnings to India's own human space flight program, Gaganyaan. India has allocated nearly Rs 33,000 crore for the entire Gaganyaan program, leading up to landing an Indian on the moon by 2040.
