Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla, other Axiom 4 crew to undock from space station on July 14: NASA

Indian astronaut Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla and three other crew members of Axiom 4 will begin their return journey to Earth on July 14, NASA has announced.


"We are working with the station program, watching the Axiom-4 progress carefully. I think we need to undock that mission, and the current target to undock is July 14," Steve Stitch, Manager, NASA Commercial Crew Program, told a press conference.

Group Captain Shukla is on a 14-day mission to the International Space Station.

He became the first Indian to visit the ISS and the second Indian astronaut after Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma, who went to space in 1984.

According to reports, Group Captain Shukla did seven India-specific experiments.

Axiom 4 or Mission 'Akash Ganga' is the first firm step for India's Gaganyaan human space flight mission.

One of the most unforgettable evenings I’ve experienced on this mission was sharing a meal with new friends, Ax-4, aboard the International @Space_Station.

The three astronauts who travelled to ISS with Shukla are Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski of Poland, Tibor Kapu of Hungary, and Dr Peggy Whitson of the US.
A splashdown is expected several hours after the undocking, near the coast of California in the Pacific Ocean.
