‘India’s Space Hero Returns’: Shubhanshu Shukla SMILES as Historic AXIOM-4 Lands | Family Reacts

Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla smiled and waved after completing an 18-day mission aboard the International Space Station. His safe splashdown off California marks India’s first-ever astronaut visit to the ISS, a proud milestone for the nation’s space exploration journey. Shukla, piloting the Dragon spacecraft alongside NASA’s Peggy Whitson, conducted over 60 microgravity experiments spanning agriculture, medicine, and water research. The mission, part of Axiom’s private astronaut program, highlights India’s growing role in the global space age. #ShubhanshuShukla #ISSMission #IndiaInSpace #SpaceExploration #AxiomMission #SpaceX #DragonSpacecraft #NASA #PeggyWhitson #IndianAstronaut #ProudMoment #Splashdown #MicrogravityResearch #SpaceScience #GlobalSpaceAge #HistoricMission #SpaceInnovation #IndiaISS #AstronautLife #ISSHistoric #SpaceNews #SpaceTech #PrivateAstronautProgram #FutureOfSpace #ISS ~HT.178~ED.194~

VIDEO: Meteorite Crash Sparks PANIC Across South Carolina, Georgia After 'FIREBALL' Seen In Sky

A fiery object spotted blazing through skies above South Carolina, Georgia, and nearby states on Thursday afternoon has triggered investigations and emergency responses across the region. Multiple fire departments in South Carolina’s Upstate launched searches for a possible meteorite crash site after 12:20 p.m. Witnesses described a bright "fireball in the sky," and in Georgia, one homeowner reported a rock crashed through their roof. Officials are working to determine whether the object was a meteorite — a space rock that survived atmospheric entry — and if it impacted any populated areas. #MeteoriteCrash #SouthCarolina #GeorgiaFireball #FireballSighting #SpaceRock #Meteor #Meteorite #NASA #BreakingNews #MeteorCrash #UpstateFireball #MeteorSouthCarolina #HenryCountyCrash #SpaceAlert #MeteoriteNews #MeteorSky #FireballWatch #EmergencyResponse #SpaceEvent #MeteoriteImpact Also Read Orionids meteor shower: When and Where to watch in India :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/orionids-meteor-shower-when-and-where-to-watch-in-india-2965516.html?ref=DMDesc Chile: Oldest meteorite collection on Earth discovered in Atacama Desert :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/chile-oldest-meteorite-collection-on-earth-discovered-in-atacama-desert-2895379.html?ref=DMDesc Geminid Meteor Shower to peak tonight: Where and how to watch in India :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/geminid-meteor-shower-peak-tonight-where-how-to-watch-india-2822045.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~ED.346~
