Indian astronaut Shubhashu Shukla, a part of the historical Axiom-4 mission, gives insufficient comments about the re-acclimatization of the Earth to gravity after a 20-day stay at the International Space Station (ISS). At a virtual press conference on Friday, Shukla explained how even ordinary objects suddenly felt heavy in an impressive way and told a funny experience when she left a laptop waiting to swim.

For Lucknow for Native Shukla, his meeting with the “Prime Minister of Bharat” on June 28 was that he was visibly dragging behind the Indian flag. This called India’s re -introduction as a basin memory that contributed equal to the international space speech.

Astronaut has made it clear about having to re -adjust the world’s gravity. When a colleague asked for a photo, he remembered that his mobile phone felt “heavy” when he wanted a sharp contrast with his weightlessness in space. In a second funny story, he remembered that he had dropped his laptop next to the bed and expected him to swim. “Fortunately, the floor was caught on the carpet, so it was not damaged,” he laughed.

As for the Axiom-4 mission to him, he explained that Shukla “exceeded his expectations” and offered invaluable learning experiences that would be invaluable for India’s future Gaganiaan mission. He saw his task as more than one of Spacefarer, and foresee himself as a Messenger showing what was accessible.

Shukla, who is expected to return to India in mid -August, said that Prime Minister Modi has done all the “homework” he gave to him, including keeping the carefully record of all the details of the task while at the space station. He was eager to present registered insights, he was sure that this information would prove that “it was extremely useful and very important for our own mission.”

Shukla emphasized the wider mission of these space tasks, drew attention to its main objectives: to encourage the future generation and to instill them with confidence that they may be a explorer. In this respect, he drew attention to the first success of the mission, and the children already asked for ways to be astronaut.
