The return to Earth

It is December the 15th 2010. It has been 13 days in space and my bones are soft from the zero gravity. The space ship is sad because he has had a tough journey the last 15 days. I am sad that we have to leave space but at least when we go back to earth we will have gravity. We have made one orbit around the Earth and have started falling back to Earth.We use our thrust carefully to glide back to Earth. We will try and land in Kazakhstan.

We start entering the atmosphere, the ship starts to get as hot as lava. I start to sweat. We make it through the atmosphere and are thousands of feet above land.
We get a lot closer to land and let go the parachute. We float back to Earth but still going quite fast. At that very moment we touched Earth's surface and was back on Earth.
