How soon was it before you realized you were paralyzed? Just based off what you said it sounds like you were fine for a little bit afterwards...

I would be fine with this if it weren't for the fact that the cords are designed for a 5600 kg Soyuz pod and shouldn't fail because of two people.

First, did your team get the guy who shot you with the RPG?

Also, have you found the VA to be as bad as some people have described it?

The first is for Stan Love (although everyone else can answer too if they've had relevant experiences). Feel free to skip some of these if you want to get to someone else's questions:

Would you say staying at the South Pole or staying in space is more stressful?

How did you get to the campsite? Snow-Humvee?

How clear is the sky at the camp? Can we get a picture?

How far away is the next campsite?

Have you ever been to the North Pole? Which do you prefer?

Are there any problems with wildlife?

Did anyone even try to build a snowman?

Thanks!

I don't think the momentum of two astronauts with a jetpack thrust is greater than that of a Soyuz pod falling to Earth.
