Russia Soyuz Capsule Return

Astronaut John Phillips gave a Powerpoint presentation at the Bird Museum last month, and described in detail his landing in a Soyuz capsule, which he described as like riding in the back seat of a VW bug with two of your closest friends. Frankly, Scarlett, I'd prefer the Shuttle ...

Korniyenko, and NASA's Tracy Caldwell Dyson came back to Earth
September 25, 2010 from the International Space Station and landed
safely in Kazakhstan, a day after an initial attempt to return was
aborted after latches holding the Soyuz TMA-18 craft to the orbital

Very interesting images, indeed!!! Man...talk about being packed in like sardines!! I like the little slide thing they put on top of the capsule for them to "slide" them down as they climbed out.

Thanks for sharing! 🙂
