Expedition 42 Soyuz Commander Alexander Samokutyaev and Flight Engineer Elena Serova of the Russian Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) were greeted in a traditional ceremony at the airport in Karaganda, Kazakhstan on March 12, a few hours after landing along with Expedition 42 Commander Barry Wilmore of NASA in their Soyuz TMA-14M spacecraft near Dzhezkazgan, Kazakhstan. After the ceremony, the crew split up, with Samokutyaev and Serova returning to their training base in Star City, Russia, while Wilmore boarded a NASA plane to return to NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston. The trio completed 167 days in space following their launch in late September.
