India looks grand and bigger from space than it does on map, Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla told Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a video conference Saturday.
Shukla shared these details in an 18-minute interaction with Prime Minister Narendra Modi Saturday from the International Space Station that is orbiting the earth at an altitude of 400 km.
Shubhanshu Shukla said his travel to the ISS was not just a personal feat but a collective achievement of the entire nation.
“When I saw India for the first time from space, it appeared much larger and grander than on the map,” Shukla told the Prime Minister.
