Soyuz Lands, Charles Simonyi returns

Features: Current EventsCritical Path Innovation: Private Space TravelInstitutions: RoscosmosSpacecraft: Soyuz

Charles Simonyi returned aboard Soyuz yesterday. This may have been the last tourism flight to the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz craft. The reason is because the size of the permanent crew aboard the station is about to increase from three to six. But Roscosmos, the Russian space agency, may be pushing back it's staffing schedule which could allow for another tourist adventure before the end of the year.
