Gaganyatri of the Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO) to have the shortlist experiments with micro-gravity research on board the International Space Station (ISS) during the upcoming Axiom-4 mission, according to an official statement from ISRO. The Axiom-4 Mission (AXE-4), which will be Gaganyatri group captain Shubhanshu Shukla to the International Space Station (ISS) on 8 June.
The ISRO has put seven experiments with the research by Microravity Research on the shortlist by Indian Principal Investigators (PIs) of various national research and development laboratories, Academic Institutions for Implementation on the ISS during the upcoming Axiom-4 mission with its Gaganyatri. The area of micro -gravity research with potential applications in various areas such as human health, physical/life sciences, material research, new pharmaceutical development and biotechnology offers considerable opportunities for the national scientific community, added the explanation.
The research includes the impact of micro -gravity radiation on the ISS on edible microalgen. Sales seeds sprout in space: relevance for crew food; Survival, revival, reproduction and transcriptom of the Eutardigrade Paramacrobiotus SP. BLR Stam in the room; Effect of metabolic supplements on muscle regeneration under microseweerkracht; Analyzing human interaction with electronic displays in micro -gravity; And impact of micro -gravity on growth and yield parameters in seeds of food crops.
These experiments are aimed at using available research facilities on board the ISS. Given the security -driven operational philosophy, as well as other mission restrictions of human space missions, these nominated micrsweer -strict experiments undergo strict evaluations and assessments on the spot before the launch. The experience gained by this effort in the implementation of these experiments will cherish a microsewrakracht research ecosystem in the country, resulting in the induction of advanced micro -gravity experiments in various disciplines in the Indian Space program, it added.
The upcoming Axiom-4 mission with Isro’s Gaganyatri marks the visit of the first Indian ever to the International Space Station (ISS). Shukla will be the first astronaut of the ISRO who visits the station as part of a joint effort between NASA and the Indian Space Agency. He will also be India’s second national astronaut to go to space since 1984. Rakesh Sharma deserved the distinction that he was the first Indian to go to space in 1984 on board the Russian spacecraft in Russia.
IAF group captain Prasanth Balakrishnan Nair has been designated as an astronaut, as part of the backup pilot of the AX-4 if group captain Shukla is unable to fly. Apart from Shukla, the AX -4 mission also wears two mission specialists -European Space Agency (ESA) Project Astronaut Slawosz Uznanski -Wisniewski van Polen and Tibor Kapu of Hungary -to stay on board the space station. Peggy Whitson, former NASA -Astronaut and director of Human SpaceFlight in Axiom Space, will order the commercial mission.
