Current Affairs question from Laboratory Attendant exam, 2026 by JKSSB

Consider the following statements about India's Space mission's achievements.
I. The Axiom Mission 4 has enabled human spaceflight for India, Poland, and Hungary, with each nation's first government-sponsored flight in more than 40 years.
II. SpaDeX Mission made India the first country in the world to successfully carry out a satellite docking process in Low Earth Orbit (LEO).
Which of the above statements is/are correct?

Last updated Jun 13, 2026
Correct Answer: Option A — I only
Explanation of the Statements Statement I is CORRECT: The Axiom Mission 4 (Ax-4), launched in June 2025, carried a diverse international crew including Group Captain Shubhanshu Shukla from India, Sławosz Uznański-Wiśniewski from Poland, and Tibor Kapu from Hungary. This mission marked the long-awaited return to human spaceflight for all three nations, representing their first government-sponsored flights in over 40 years (since the Soviet-era Interkosmos missions). Statement II is INCORRECT: While ISRO's SpaDeX (Space Docking Experiment) mission in January 2025 was a massive historical success, it did not make India the first country to achieve satellite docking. India became the fourth nation in the world to successfully master and execute autonomous space docking technology, joining an elite group alongside the USA, Russia, and China.
