Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday talked to Shubhanshu Shukla, who is currently aboard the International Space Station as a part of the Axiom-4 mission. During the interaction, Shukla talked about various experiments being done in space.

Responding to how space differs from Earth, Shukla explained that everything in space feels different from the training on the ground. He added that his feet were tied while speaking to Prime Minister Modi, otherwise, he would start floating.

Group Captain Shukla had described the launch as “magical" and reflected on his journey.

“I am thrilled to be here with my fellow astronauts – what a ride it was. Honestly, as I sat in the capsule ‘Grace’ on the launchpad yesterday after 30 days of quarantine, all I could think was: just go. When the launch finally happened, it was something else entirely. You’re pushed back into the seat–and then suddenly, there’s silence. You’re just floating in the vacuum, and it’s magical," he said.
