A Russian Soyuz capsule with NASA's Randy Bresnik, Russia's Sergey Ryazanskiy and Paolo Nespoli of the European Space Agency descended under a red-and-white parachute and landed on schedule at 2:37 p.m. local time (0837 GMT; 3:37 a.m. EST) on the vast steppes outside of a remote town in Kazakhstan.
The three were extracted from the capsule within 20 minutes and appeared to be in good condition.
Bresnik, Ryazansky and Nespoli spent 139 days aboard the orbiting space laboratory. The trio who arrived at the station in July contributed to hundreds of scientific experiments aboard the ISS and performed several spacewalks.
They left Alexander Misurkin, commander of the crew, and two Americans, Joe Acaba and Mark Vande Hei, in charge.
Do you think astronauts on the ISS play a drinking game where they try to land toilet bombs on earth-bound targets? I would.

Yeah, but you could hang them outside ISS and time a good sneeze into a one way tube. Or feel a fart coming on, everyone gets 15 seconds to pick a target, the astronaut farts, and someone wins. (be sure to wipe the tube before the next sneeze, I hear there's lots of microbes up there. BTW, anyone thought of ordering Lysol with their next Hot Pockets order?)
The point is, it doesn't take much to change the orbit of a 1 lb turd and I know if I was up there I would get hours of entertainment out of this kind of game.
It will burn up in the atmosphere, you say? Challenge accepted!
