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.

3 Ass-tro-nots went back to living with their families after spending months inside a NASA facility here on earth, locked away from the public (they could still meet their families from time to time when they were brought to the facility). Check for yourself and then decide if space is all they say it is and if they ever lied about anything. NASA never left Low Earth Orbit and we're told "we" went to a moon. Nobody went to the moon. Low Earth Orbit might even be a hoax.

Quite an elaborate hoax, the ISS and "space capsules" whatever the F that means.
