July 16 Issue

The successful return of Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla from space is more than just a personal triumph, it is a critical step toward India's human spaceflight ambitions, particularly the Gaganyaan mission.

Ex-ISRO scientist BR Guruprasad today said that Shukla's role in conducting around 60 scientific experiments, including seven from India, will yield valuable inputs" for the country's future in space.

"Shukla's mission has been very fruitful, no doubt about it," the expert remarked, adding that the astronaut gained firsthand experience in orbit - travelling to space, living aboard the International Space Station (ISS), conducting scientific work, and returning safely. "Such experience is not only rare but immensely useful."
