About | Information | History | Online | Facts | Discovery
How does an astronaut return to Earth from the International Space Station? What does it feel like to re-enter the atmosphere? How does the Soyuz capsule function? Watch and find out. This video is based on an actual lesson delivered to the ESA astronaut class of 2009 (also known as the #Shenanigans09) during their ESA Basic Training. It features interviews with astronauts who have flown on the Soyuz and dramatic footage of actual landings.

This is real, but the apollo moon landings were fake, they could not take the very high risk of failure so they faked it

i could help upthere...come on, i want to go there.. i would learn anything there is to know pretty quickly and bring one more point of view.i dont understand why humanity dosnt use our motivation to do something bigger. why wouldnt you use all the energy and concentrate it on "the best things to do" #dreams.Because money is so toxic here on earth,unfortunatly we can breath it but that thing is so heavy we cant see shit at all down there.
no seriously,why didnt we created a giant playground of work to do that everyone naturally integrates without ever questioning our abilities or our intelligence, it would be just there..and you cant fail because that's all there is.. failure would be a concept that only exist because we need to dot things right and not something that WILL happen if you are not doing things right because ,well ,you have no interest in not doing the things right since doing the right thing is all that exist.we would jsut express in difrent ways inside that shell of rightness ,thanks maths, and just make it expend #morenergy for the colony #passion's like zeroG,pretty smooth actually ^^
come on that thing we call history and taht we seem to learn sooo much from is just a tiny litttttle fart that's not even out of our ass, its not even created, beans are still traveling to our mouth, its the first time we taste it and we are not even sure we will like it. maybe the next time taht spoon goes in our mouth it will be the best thing we ever had and teh fart will be powerfull, will make a great rythme and smell very good.
lets see it as it is.We are not a competitive compagnie just because we have nobody to run against, we dont optimise our forces and have nothing that makes us special beside the fact we are killing each other because nobody has a plan -
that is not an easy job at all!
-
I love the end scene when the retro rocket firing and the inside of soyuz become messy and the crew just laughing it! :D
