MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- Russian space officials say the crew of the Soyuz space ship is resting after a rough ride back to Earth.

The craft carrying South Korea's first astronaut landed in northern Kazakhstan on Saturday, 260 miles (418 kilometers) off its mark, they said.

1. And you thought some of our apparatus gave us a bumpy ride...! :rolleyes:

2. How many astronauts have been killed by Soyuz over the years? How many have been killed by the space shuttle? I think that answers your question!
