Soraya, if we could only read one story about what happened to presage the revolution, what would that be? Link? Thank you

Hi, I might be a little slow but even watching the return to Earth by Scott Kelly and the two cosmonauts in the Soyuz, I'm unclear on: 1) dimensions inside the part of the Soyuz they stayed in after the other 2 parts detached; 2) how loud it was in there; 3) I know it had been travelling at 17,000 mph in space but once hitting Earth's atmosphere, how fast was it hurling to the ground before the big parachute opened?

Finally, that must be the most gripping, blood-curdling part of the ordeal for you as controllers. How do you stay sane during this process, and are you in touch with Scott Kelly (or whomever) in those moments?

thank you

Hi, I wrote about the RFID used on the ISS and wondered how that affects operations now, and if the technology is more or less pervasive than it was a couple years ago?
