Welcome home stationcdrkelly!! Two thumbs up from NASA Astronaut Scott Kelly, seen resting in a chair outside of the spacecraft just minutes after he and Russian cosmonauts Mikhail Kornienko and Sergey Volkov of Roscosmos landed in a remote area near the town of Zhezkazgan, Kazakhstan on Wednesday, March 2, 2016 (Kazakh time). Kelly and Kornienko completed anInternational Space Station (ISS) record year-long mission to collect valuable data on the effect of long duration weightlessness on the human body that will be used to formulate a human mission to Mars. Volkov returned after spending six months on the station. Learn more: nasa.gov/oneyear Photo Credit: NASA/Bill Ingalls #NASA #YearInSpace #astronaut #explorer #welcomehome
