Touchdown Expedition 37!

Just wanted to do a quick photo-dump of the screenshots I took at stupid o'clock last night during the most recent landing of a Soyuz craft from the International Space Station.

The Soyuz capsule seen drifting away from the ISS.

Soyuz more than 300km above the Pacific Ocean.

Soyuz with parachute deployed, flanked by a Russian helicopter.

Touchdown! 

Mission Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin back on terra firma, holding the Olympic Torch.

ESA astronaut Luca Parmitano is all smiles.

Nyberg, Yurchikhin and Parmitano well wrapped up against the cold.
It was a great landing, as they always are! Those Soyuz crafts are amazing things!
