Luar biasa! Foto dan Video Detik-detik Astronot Landing Ke Bumi. Tiga astronot telah menyelesaikan misinya di luar angkasa selama 141 hari. Drama proses kembalinya dari luar angkasa ke bumi sungguh menegangkan dan terekam melalui akun twitter resmi NASA.
Direncanakan sebelumnya ketiga astronot yakni, Kimiya Yui (Jepang), Oleg Kononenko (Rusia), Kjel Lindrgen (Amerika) akan landing di Kazakhstan. Berikut adalah kronologi misi pendaratan ke bumi. [Baca : Menakjubkan! NASA Memperlihatkan Sisi Gelap Bulan Melewati Bumi]
Diawali dengan video persiapan di pesawat ulang alik. Pendaratan ini disiarkan pula melalui NASA TV secara langsung. Pesawat ulang alik ini dinamakan Soyuz. [Baca : NASA Perlihatkan Foto Asap Kebakaran Kalimantan dan Sumatera dari Satelit]
Terlihat pula di tweeps berikutnya tim yang mengontrol di bumi layaknya di film Hollywood seperti Armageddon. Yang paling menarik adalah ketika Soyuz terpecah menjadi 3 bagian untuk memasuki orbit bumi. [Baca : Begini Penampakan Planet Mirip Bumi Kepler-452b yang Baru ditemukan NASA]
Setelah melalui perjalanan yang menegangkan akhirnya sampai ke bumi dan disambut oleh kru lainnya seperti tergambar dalam video penyambutan Kjel Lindrgen.
