Watch Video: Indian-Origin Astronaut Sunita Williams Dances On Her Arrival At Space Station
In a spectacular display of joy and accomplishment, Indian-origin astronaut Sunita Williams marked her arrival at the International Space Station (ISS) with a delightful dance. The 59-year-old astronaut, along with her crewmate Butch Wilmore, successfully docked the Boeing Starliner spacecraft with the ISS, making history as the first woman to pilot and test a new crewed spacecraft on its maiden mission. Sunita Williams, who has previously taken an idol of Lord Ganesh and the Bhagavad Gita to space, is no stranger to the ISS. This mission marks her third trip to the space station, and her arrival was nothing short of celebratory. Upon docking, Williams performed a little dance and embraced the seven astronauts already aboard the ISS, sharing her excitement and the festive spirit of the moment. Hugs all around!
