Domer Kevin Ford '82 -- Back to Earth!


Notre Dame alum Kevin Ford '82, (that's him on the right) -- Captain of the International Space Station (Expedition 34) -- returned safely to earth in the past hour in a Soyuz space capsule in a remote area of Central Asia (Kazakhstan).

You're going to find the "departure" video from the Soyuz capsule -- interesting...

Ford led a 142 day mission at the International Space Station.
