Indian Space Hero Rakesh Sharma (English, Paperback, Sharma Deepak)

"Indian Space Hero Rakesh Sharma" is a compelling tribute to India’s first cosmonaut, Wing Commander Rakesh Sharma, whose voyage into space became a historic milestone for the nation. Spending 7 days, 21 hours, and 41 minutes aboard the Soviet Soyuz T-11 spacecraft, Sharma not only made India proud but also contributed significantly to the field of space science by conducting complex scientific experiments in microgravity. This book goes beyond facts and figures—it delves into his courageous journey, the challenges of space travel, and his iconic moment in history when he famously responded to the then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, saying, “Saare Jahan Se Achha.” Author Deepak Sharma presents Sharma's life story in an inspiring and accessible way, making it a must-read for students, science enthusiasts, history buffs, and anyone who admires the spirit of exploration.
