A Russian Soyuz capsule touched down in Kazakhstan yesterday, bringing a Russian cosmonaut, a US astronaut and an American space tourist back to Earth, mission control said.

The two-man crew returned home after half a year in orbit on the International Space Station. Millionaire scientist and entrepreneur Gregory Olsen spent just over a week with them in space, paying a reported $20 million for the trip.
