Besides the pilot,there will be a crew person and a doctor,” Ankita said.

“In dreams,sometimes,we fly over imaginary landscapes…floating as if weightless in a sleepy sea. Is this what it is like to be in space? So I will be taking an actual Zero-G flight and experience weightlessness when I paint,” Ankita said.
