The Soyuz is out of frame in this scene, which shows a rescue team member gathering the spacecraft's landing parachute and a MI-6 helicopter on the ground in the background. Landing occurred around 7:52 a.m. Moscow time. Onboard were Yuri Gidzenko, commander; Roberto Vittori, flight engineer; and space flight participant Mark Shuttleworth of South Africa. Gidzenko is with Rosaviakosmos and Vittori represents the European Space Agency (ESA). Photo Credit: NASA/Marty Linde
