Divya Delhi: The much-awaited Axiom Mission 4 has faced another delay in its launch, with leaks being detected during post static fire booster inspections. The mission was slated to launch June 11. SpaceX announced the postponement of the Falcon 9 launch of the Ax-4 mission to the International Space Station (ISS) through a post on X. The American space technology company stated that it will require more time to fix the issue and new dates will be announced thereafter. SpaceX wrote on X, “Standing down from tomorrow’s Falcon 9 launch of Ax-4 to the @SpaceStation to allow additional time for SpaceX teams to repair the LOx leak identified during post static fire booster inspections. Once complete – and pending Range availability – we will share a new launch date.” Following the announcement by SpaceX, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) also confirmed the delay. With this, Indians who have been eagerly awaiting the launch will have to remain patient. This mission is special to India, as it is set to carry the first Indian Gaganyatri, Shubhanshu Shukla to the ISS. Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla will be India’s second national astronaut to go to space since 1984.
