Soyuz returns ISS crewmembers to Earth
Posted: Tue, Mar 11, 2014, 6:30 AM ET (1030 GMT)
A Soyuz spacecraft carrying two Russian and one American ISS crewmembers landed in Kazakhstan on Tuesday morning. The Soyuz TMA-10M spacecraft landed southeast of Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan, at 11:24 pm EDT Monday (0324 GMT, 9:24 am local time Tuesday), nearly three and a half hours after undocking from the ISS. On board the Soyuz were Russian cosmonauts Oleg Kotov and Sergey Ryazanskiy, and American astronaut Mike Hopkins, returning from 166 days in space. Earlier Monday it appeared poor weather conditions would delay the landing, but Russian officials pressed ahead with the landing despite snowy conditions. Three new ISS crewmembers are slated to launch to the ISS from Baikonur on March 25.
