IAF’s Wing Commander Shubhanshu Shukla to Pilot Axiom Mission 4, Marking India’s Return to Human Spaceflight

Indian Air Force officer Wing Commander Shubhanshu Shukla, recently selected as the ‘Prime’ astronaut for ISRO’s Gaganyaan mission, has now been chosen as the pilot for Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4), scheduled for Spring 2025. His selection marks a historic moment for India’s renewed presence in human spaceflight after more than four decades. Ax-4 will be led by Axiom Space’s Director of Human Spaceflight and former NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson, with mission specialists Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski from Poland and Tibor Kapu from Hungary. This mission will symbolize a major milestone as India, Poland, and Hungary embark on their first government-backed human space missions in over 40 years. Shukla’s participation highlights India’s growing footprint in global space exploration and collaboration.
