LIVE: Soyuz TMA-02M Undocking and Re-entry

[Satori]

Didn't both Vostok 3 and 4 land on August 15,1962?

Exactly!

Exactly!

Well, I could play devils advocate and ask if MRV's from ICBM tests count

Didn't the MX have 10 reentry vehicles?

I think we better get back on topic before Chris puts us in the penalty box.

Cdr Fossum:
"We fixed more than we broke, and found more than we lost."

Now that's an epic quote!

Indeed. I think I'll 'borrow' that one for my profile

This was taken from ISS, but begs the question of why there aren't any photos taken out of the DM window at separation. It would be interesting to see images of the PAO and BO floating away from the crew module. Maybe the crew is too busy at that moment to snap photos.

I would guess they are tightly strapped in and don't want a camera loose at that point.

I've always wished they could turn on the video cameras that are used during in ascent. Would require capability to record rather than direct down-link.
