Soyuz Crew Lands in Kazakhstan

The Soyuz spacecraft carrying Expedition 44 Commander Gennady Padalka of the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) and Flight Engineers Andreas Mogensen of the European Space Agency and Aidyn Aimbetov of the Kazakh Space Agency (Kazcosmos), returned safely to Earth on Sept. 12 with a landing on the steppe of Kazakhstan. Padalka completed 168 days in space since launching in late March, boosting his all-time record total of time in space to 879 days on five flights. Mogensen and Aimbetov spent eight days in space as part of the crew that brought a fresh Soyuz spacecraft to the complex. Following landing the crew was greeted with a traditional ceremony.

I find it lovely how they get the astronauts out of the capsule (like if they were being born) and then they gather around to provide them with emotional support/comfort. Very tribal and very human.

[@animamundii]

I love the mood in all of these space videos. All of them seem like nice people, make sense, since they work on something so awesome.

[@thetooginator153]

Damian Reloaded - Well said!

[@lanhuong-xo7ec]

Yes

[@MrMallorcaboy]

seems a bit amatuerish compared to nasa apollo missions. in apollo splashdowns they were pulled out by the navy with medics onside if needed. still at least they got down safe.

[@hackneysaregreat]

Excellent landing video. I love it when you see how the parachute "breathes"..

[@EASTSIDERIDER707]

Congrats to all on a safe return home.

Paulinique de Daphne von Harrisburg sat in the tub of hot, bubbly water. It was good that the viceroy was at the palace in audience with the queen. This soak is what she needed. Her lower back, just above the crack-of-itchy, felt romantical. She now hoped that the viceroy would return shortly to give her the "once over." Suddenly, like a motorcycle coming out of nowhere, José the gardener entered the bathroom. "Madre," he began, "I beg Jew problem." "Oh, slide in," Paula said, feigning anger. "And my brother? He too?" "Oh, alright." With the 3 of them soaping up there wasn't room for the viceroy should he arrive home ahead of schedule. "Here ease Carmen," José's brother said, and sure enough there was Carmen nude and in the process of draping herself across Paula's dreamy-creamy, parted thighs. "Carmen, are you pregnant?" Paula asked. "Jess mum," she giggled. "Jew ties are berry sexy mum." "Here," the gardener said to Paula, "let me feel you up a lot." Paula laid back, the best that she could, for a Mexican grope. "Berry goo," she teased while the soapy water flooded her love tunnel. "Jew ease juice watt I needed," she moaned as José took liberties upon her like he was Erik Estrada standing amidst the grandeur that was "California Pines.” "What's this?!" The viceroy exclaimed as he jumped suddenly into the bathtub like a motorcycle coming out of nowhere. "Berry sore he," Carmen said. "I go." "Please don't go," the viceroy whined more affectionately than would a dog catcher with gonorrhea. "I must wash your back?"

Best desktop background, if it wasn't so overexposed!

[@onjofilms]

Some reason that landing looked really hard.

[@Tankeenify]

+onjoFilms It's not the ground that makes the smoke, they use some kind of rocket to slow the Soyuz down. :)

[@Tankeenify]

onjoFilms Okay?

[@ragnkja]

+onjoFilms The soft landing has been described as feeling like a small car crash. (They are still going at 5 km/h when they hit the ground.) I don't really want to know what a ballistic landing feels like.

[@Suyamu]

actually they are going 5 m/s when they hit - that is 18 km/h ;) It is indeed like a car crash - but they're braced and have shock absorbing seats that soak up a lot of the impact.

[@telumatramenti7250]

It wasn't. The Soyuz descent retardant charges fire milliseconds before the landing, having done so without fail the last 50 years. This is why you see a dust cloud around the capsule. It's nothing like a car crash. No one has ever been injured by Soyuz capsule landing in the last half a century.

[@nancyhobson9710]

There are a lot of people's efforts make this happen. A shout out to all and glad you reached Terra Firma again.

[@BillyTubememe]

I would never want to ride in a soyuz, but the landing is so cool!

[@Jumpertj]

in two years landing would be completely different the new project under test, landing would be 12 times accurate,new materials used to build spacecraft so the weight much lower from current version, also they changing ergonomics .

[@davidcakemann6854]

bravo, another one down.

Welcome home, space travelers! Victor Borge was known as the "Happy Dane". I think Morgensen should be known as the "Smiling Dane". He does it often, and well.

kazakhs are the first and only among the Muslims who flew into space. Aidyn is one of them, when he was there, he said "As salamu aleikum, Kazakhstan! ". I'm proud of him. Kazakhstan!!!!

[@Midway.]

+Жігер Балтабайұлы Kazakhstanian - not necessarily Muslim. In Kazakhstan lives almost half non-Muslims, the peoples of the former USSR . Earlier, the Afghan cosmonaut Mohmand, Abdul Ahad flew on "Soyuz TM-6 " / "Mir ".

[@fhellmin]

they speak russian in kazakhstan

[@user-or6gn1yh3h]

+Ninety one АЛҒА +Midway Guys, the first muslim cosmonaut is Saudi prince Sultan bin Salman Al Saud, who is scientist and engeneer in spite being a nobleman in his motherland, and he worked 1 week in 1985 as an engeneer on STS-51-G mission aboard US spaceshuttle Discovery.

Hi เห็นแล้ว 9คน ขอบคุณข้อมูลครับ Hi Asm 20.12o'clock th 15../04/2020👍😍💞

[@Michelle_p17]

How did they know where they’re going like they just fallen earth how do they know they’re going to be on that time in that country ?

[@faridamoeneclaeydakhouche9517]

michelle c yeah everything is calculated

[@mostaqueahmed2820]

Mathematics

[@dodgeuk69]

Rocket science

[@Draughster]

Almost the same way we predict the orbit of planets.

[@thetooginator153]

michelle c - It’s actually VERY interesting. It involves very complicated physics and even accounts for things like the temperature. Fortunately, computers figure out orbits extremely accurately, so, the cosmonauts know when they have to leave the ISS and when the return module has to slow down (using rockets) so that gravity will pull the module into the atmosphere which REALLY slows down the module. Timing is the most important thing, and computers handle that very well. After the atmosphere slows down the module, then the module is basically falling straight down. When the atmosphere is thick enough (I think around 7 km), the parachute opens. When the module is only about 5 meters above the ground, rockets slow the module right before it hits the ground. It’s a rough ride for the cosmonauts!

[@Synapticsnap]

I hope those soft landing rockets never fail or they are toast.

[@Nexus2Eden]

+Jim's Inkspot That was what I was thinking about that parachute. If it failed it would be an express ride to a smug.

[@jjthomas2297]

If that had been a Shuttle the vehicle would have been destroyed and the entire crew would be dead. Call the Russians what you want, but at least they were smart enough to give the crew an escape system

[@user-qe4cl1kc9b]

Hi Asm 17.15 o'cloak th 14.../10/2018. This seemed like something you would find interesting

[@Arm1nas]

But where did landed Soyuz capsules go? Did they reuse them?

[@CB5121]

When they get into the space shuttle, why are they not wearing astronaut suits.

[@juangreen8194]

+Charlie Bentley They get suited up once inside the orbital module.

[@aannoonniimmss]

not sure, but I think that they are taking dna samples to compare with samples taken before the flight to space. They also check blood pressure and other vital signs.

[@ruzainiroosfa6543]

It's perfectly normal on the soyuz

HEY ITS SOYUZ

[@The-LongRoad-Home]

strange to me if compared with previous Landings , the soft Landing burn was barely perceivable. please slow down and enhance the footage ,it appears this capsule exploded 15 meters above the ground

[@Cl0ud897]

What? It didn't explode. The astronauts were safe

[@ranjithn1702]

Their space suit color should be orange while entry and launch..why is it white?

[@user-kn4ys2jv5e]

Roscosmos (russian space agency) mostly uses white spacesuits nowadays , doesn't has to be necessarily orange

too bad they landed in a wind squall once the thusters fired the wind knocked the capsule on it's side.

I wonder why there is one cosmonaut whose hair stayed flat. Also,did you notice that their hair was staying in place, as if they were using a hair gel. When they moved their heads, there hair should have flopped around, but it did not. Strange.

What a horrible way to land. A bigger parachute should be deployed before touchdown, not some dam rocket motor.
