Indians in Space…

“To infinity and beyond!!”

Indian-American astronaut, Sunita Williams, will end up breaking the US record for longest stay in space. As quoted by the geeks at the NewScientist.com:

Carl Walz and Dan Bursch set the US record for the longest single spaceflight in 2002, when they flew for 196 days. On Monday, the current space station commander, Michael Lopez-Alegria, will break that record and will set a new one of 214 days if he lands as planned on 20 April. But that record will probably be shattered on 11 July by station astronaut Sunita Williams, who has been in space since December 9, 2006. That is because her ride home on the shuttle Endeavour, two shuttle flights from now, is not likely to launch as planned on 28 June.

Of course she will have to face challenges coming back to earth like adjusting to gravity and washing all those dishes she avoided while space. Oooh!
I love my: mom
