So cute.

NEAR ARKALYK, Kazakhstan (Reuters) - A Russian capsule landed in the Kazakh steppe on Friday, returning to earth Anousheh Ansari who is the first female tourist, the first female Muslim and the first Iranian-born person to enter space.

"They've completed the landing," a mission control official in Moscow said after the small Soyuz TMA-8 capsule, charred black from its fiery re-entry into the atmosphere, landed safely in northern Kazakhstan.

Ansari, a 40-year-old U.S. telecoms entrepreneur who left Iran in 1984 and who paid $20 million for the trip, came back along with a Russian cosmonaut and a U.S. astronaut and was greeted with red roses as well as a hug from her husband, Hamid.
