Astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla and three fellow crew members of the Axiom-4 mission are scheduled to return to Earth from the International Space Station (ISS) on July 14, NASA announced on Thursday.
“We are working with the station program, watching the Axiom-4 progress carefully. I think we need to undock that mission and the current target to undock is July 14,” said Steve Stitch, Manager of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program at a press conference.
The Axiom-4 mission was launched from Florida’s Kennedy Space Center on June 25, with the Dragon spacecraft docking at the ISS on June 26 after a 28-hour journey.
Alongside Shukla, who is the mission’s designated pilot, the Ax-4 crew includes Commander Peggy Whitson from the US, and mission specialists Sawosz Uznaski-Winiewski from Poland and Tibor Kapu from Hungary.
