Agra-born real estate investor Arvinder “Arvi” Singh Bahal has made headlines across the globe after embarking on a breathtaking journey beyond Earth’s atmosphere. On Sunday, Bahal joined the crew of Blue Origin’s NS-34 mission, a milestone suborbital spaceflight operated by Jeff Bezos’ aerospace company.
The NS-34 mission marks another leap forward for the private space tourism industry, with Bahal becoming one of the few Indians to have ventured to the edge of space. In a captivating video shared from aboard the New Shepard spacecraft, Bahal is seen gazing in awe at the Earth from an altitude of nearly 100 kilometers (62 miles) — the boundary of space known as the Kármán Line.
Blue Origin’s reusable rocket system lifted off smoothly, carrying Bahal along with a crew of international space tourists on a brief yet exhilarating trip that offered a few minutes of weightlessness and panoramic views of Earth’s curvature.
Speaking about the experience, Bahal called the flight “a dream come true,” adding that seeing the Earth from space has changed his perspective forever. Known for his successful real estate ventures and philanthropy, Bahal now joins an elite club of space travelers and continues to inspire countless Indians with his bold leap into the cosmos.
The NS-34 flight underscores Blue Origin’s mission to make space accessible for civilians and enthusiasts, reflecting the growing trend of commercial space tourism. As the private space race intensifies, adventurers like Arvi Singh Bahal are proving that the final frontier is no longer reserved for astronauts alone.
With Agra’s skyline far below and the stars within reach, Bahal’s journey is not only a personal triumph but a historic moment for India in the realm of space exploration.
