   Leave it to ISS astronaut André Kuipers to put the difficulty and danger of re-entry from space in such an existential literary form … via a tweet:

   I will return in this Soyuz. From 28.000 to 0 km/h. We sit in the middle section. The rest will burn up.

   (via Twitter / @astro_andre and Alexis Madrigal)
