    Jubilant Indians have been celebrating the successful launch of the Axiom-4 (Ax-4) mission which has taken off with a multi-country crew, including an Indian astronaut.

    In just over 26 hours - when the spacecraft docks at the International Space Station (ISS) - Group Captain Shukla will become the first ever Indian to visit Nasa’s orbiting laboratory.

    His trip comes 41 years after cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma became the first Indian to fly to space aboard a Russian Soyuz in 1984.

    Great job! The more nations capable of this, the better imo.

    Still great but I should have actually read the article, hmm.
