Landed!

Our national hero astronaut Andre Kuipers has landed from space this morning! He has spent a half year in the ISS station in space and this morning he landed in Kazachstan, Russia with two others, an American and a Russian fellow. It was live on televison here and it was so exciting to sit on the couch in our pyamas and watching him coming down on a grassy plain. Three seats were  placed in the grass and they were lifted out of the capsule by men and carefully let down in the seats. That was so very comic to see, so different from the american way.
Have a look at the video
