The first pictures of astronaut Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla, who returned to Earth on Tuesday after spending 18 days in space, have emerged online. Shukla stepped out of SpaceX’s Grace capsule at 3.50 pm (IST), minutes after its successful splashdown off California coast. He visited ISS as part of Axiom-4 mission alongside astronauts Peggy Whitson, Tibor Kapu, and Slawosz Uznanski-Wisniewski.
