EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Kirill Kudryavtsev from Agence France-Presse (AFP), we witness the awe-inspiring landing of Russia's Soyuz MS-02 space capsule carrying the International Space Station (ISS) crew. Against a backdrop of vast, untouched wilderness in Kazakhstan, the capsule gently touches down outside the town of Dzhezkazgan (Zhezkazgan). On April 10,2017, after an extraordinary 173-day mission aboard the ISS, Russian cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Andrey Borisenko alongside US astronaut Shane Kimbrough safely return to Earth. The image captures their triumphant arrival as they emerge from their cosmic journey. This remarkable moment symbolizes not only scientific achievement but also international collaboration and unity. The joint efforts between Roscosmos and NASA have propelled humanity further into the depths of space exploration. The photograph serves as a testament to human resilience and determination as these brave astronauts conquer unimaginable challenges while floating above our planet. It reminds us that there are no boundaries or borders when it comes to exploring what lies beyond our atmosphere. Kudryavtsev's skillful composition showcases both the grandeur of nature and mankind's relentless pursuit of knowledge. As we gaze at this breathtaking scene, we can't help but feel inspired by these pioneers who push the limits for all humankind.
