So happy for the returned crew! Always glad to hear it when a potential tragedy can be turned around. I can’t even imagine a year in space. The feeling of being back on Earth must be incredible, and probably a little uncomfortable, too :)
Imagine having the worst head cold of your life for a year, not being able to taste any of the freeze dried food you have to eat, and being trapped in a tube the size of a passenger airliner.
Astronauts are amazing people. A lot of people went a little nuts at home during COVID lockdowns, and they didn’t even have to worry about the atmosphere leaking out or doing complicated science experiments.
