Soyuz Astronauts Come Back to Earth
After almost five months in the stars, three crew members return home from the International Space Station. The trio are helped from the cramped confines of their Soyuz space capsule shortly after landing Saturday in Kazakhstan. With the temperatures well below freezing, the astronauts - led by American commander Kevin Ford - are bundled into blankets during a quick checkup. They spent 144 days onboard the space station, travelling a total of 98 million kilometres.
