The Axiom-4 mission will lift off from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on June 19 aboard SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket.Shubhanshu Shukla is set to create history through the Axiom-4 mission by being the second Indian astronaut to go to space. Shukla will travel to the ISS with the Ax-4 crew, where the team will conduct multiple experiments focused on microgravity and living science.The launch date was announced after a crucial c0ordination meeting conducted between the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), Axiom Space, and SpaceX.“During a follow-on coordination meeting between ISRO, Axiom Space, and SpaceX, it was confirmed that the liquid oxygen leak observed in the Falcon 9 launch vehicle has been successfully resolved,” ISRO said in a statement on Saturday.“Separately, Axiom Space informed that they are working closely with NASA to assess the pressure anomaly in the Zvezda Service Module on board the International Space Station,” the organisation said.The launch of the Axiom-4 mission has been delayed four times previously, due to unfavourable weather conditions and technical snags. The astronauts were originally scheduled for lift-off on May 29, which was put off to June 8, June 10 and June 11, when SpaceX, the providers of the launch rocket and the space capsule, detected a liquid oxygen leak in the Falcon-9 rocket.Former NASA astronaut and director of human spaceflight at Axiom Space, Peggy Whitson, will command the commercial mission, while ISRO astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla will serve as the pilot.Stay updated with the latest - Click here to follow us on Instagram© IE Online Media Services Pvt Ltd
