Shubhanshu Shukla has returned to earth after spending 18 days in space. 4 people, including Shubhanshu, were riding in the dragon spacecraft of SpaceX and all have been landed on safe India. This spacecraft was landed in California at 3:01 pm Indian time on Tuesday, July 15. It is reported that this team did about 60 experiments in space, but do you know that Shubhanshu Shukla used to show great interest in football earlier.
A teacher of Shubhanshu Shukla at City Montisori School told that when Shubhanshu returned to India from California, the whole of Lucknow came in his honor. He said, “Shubhanshu used to get good numbers even after studying less during his school days. Everyone felt how he brought such good numbers. Shubhanshu used to show interest in sports, especially in football. He used to play cricket too. When Shubhanshu applied in NDA, his parents did not support him.
Shubhanshu was born in the middle class family
Shubhanshu Shukla was born on 10 October 1985 in a middle class family in Lucknow. There was very little hope that Shubhanshu would move towards becoming an astronaut, but an aircraft had increased his interest in the region. Shukla saw an aircraft in childhood, where he was thrilled to hear the speed and voice of the aircraft.
He had applied for the National Defense Academy, but his application was rejected due to old age. He was appointed to the Indian Air Force in the year 2006 and obtained an MTech degree in Aerospace Engineering. He has an experience of flying advanced fighter jets like MiG-29, Dornier 228. In 2019, he was selected for ISRO’s ‘Indian Human Spaceflight Program’. He was one of the four candidates who were selected for astronaut training.
