Expedition 7, Signing Off After 185 days in space, Ed Lu and "newlywed" Yuri Malenchenko return to Earth today with Euronaut Pedro Duque, leaving the Station at 5:17 p.m. CST (have to get used to not typing D) with an anticipated touchdown in Kazakhstan at 8:40:40 p.m. CST. Addendum: According to USA Today, Expedition 8 crewmembers Foale and Kaleri will stay on the Station nearly 7 months, longer than any previous Station crew. The previous longest increment was 6 1/2 months, by Expedition 4, whose U.S. members currently hold numbers one and two spots on the NASA overall space duration record, a record which Foale, who previously served on Mir, with surpass about halfway through his mission and then well exceed before it's over.
