April 21, 200818 yr South Korea paid Russia $20 million for A Soyuz capsule carrying South Korea's first astronaut I would want a REFUND lol http://www.foxnews.com/images/365969/0_67_soyuz_tma12.jpg South Korean bioengineer Yi So-yeon, American astronaut Peggy Whitson and Russian flight engineer Yuri Malenchenko ? was satisfactory, though the three had been subjected to severe G-forces during the re-entry. 10 Fracking GS on reentry omg Officials said the craft followed a so-called "ballistic re-entry" ? a very steep trajectory that subjects the crew to extreme physical force. Lyndin said the crew had experienced gravitational forces up to 10 times those on Earth during the descent. The crew were being examined on site by medical officials, and were later to return to Moscow for further evaluation. The Russian TMA-11 craft touched down around 0830 GMT some 260 miles off target, Lyndin said ? a highly unusual distance given how precisely engineers plan for such landings. It was also around 20 minutes later than scheduled. (missing time indeed)
