Well done to everyone! The Soyuz 'taxi' comes through with flying colours yet again.

Landing 5x5.

I can hear voices now in/on the spacecraft comm, indicating the hatch is open.

Can someone take some screenshots. "Saying" there's live video is no use.

Weather at the landing site looks pretty bad. No medical tent. Crew was brought into helicopter, but no info yet on where they are going. PAO is speculating that they will go to Kostanay, but could be diverted to Arkalyk due to the weather conditions and closer proximity of the latter. Also no official or unofficial landing time, PAO suggesting around 10:09-10:10PM central

Descent. Looks really bad. If you'll look closely enough you'll see Soyuz's chute.

Soyuz on the ground. Visibility is next to non-existent.

Replay is now on NTV. Screenshots above are from it. Sorry for late shots - I've only now figured out how to make them off NTV's player.

You can imagine the power of the solid rocket "soft landing" rockets by the extent of the blackened snow around the capsule. I wonder if any of the residue on the snow is toxic or is it "just clean soot"?

These things don't care about the weather

Have to say that the parachute on the ground made a great 'Here I am' signal, though.
