Cheers And Relief As Sunita Williams Returns Home After 9 Months In Space

Cheers erupted in Gujarat's Jhulasan village as Williams waved triumphantly, her courage inspiring millions. After 4,577 orbits and a nail-biting 17-hour descent, the duo's return marks a significant achievement. Watch top scientists discuss the exemplary mission only on NDTV.
