Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla shared a time-lapse video of Earth from his maiden space mission in June 2025. The footage, captured during the Axiom-4 mission, highlights Earth's rotation against the backdrop of space. Shukla, who is also preparing for India's Gaganyaan mission in 2027, noted the enduring beauty of the view. The Axiom-4 mission involved conducting seven experiments in microgravity, focusing on biology, food, medicine, and mental health, including growing Indian superfoods and studying cell aging.
