HOUSTON (UPI) -- Russian cosmonaut Fyodor Yurchikhin has officially
assumed command of the International Space Station.
A change-of-command ceremony was conducted Tuesday afternoon, with
Expedition 14 commander Michael Lopez-Alegria, flight engineer Mikhail
Tyurin and civilian astronaut Charles Simonyi -- the millionaire
inventor of Microsoft Word -- to return to Earth Saturday aboard a
Soyuz spacecraft.
The Soyuz TMA-9 spacecraft is to land one day later than originally
scheduled -- and at an alternative site -- because of spring flooding
on the Russian steppes.
Expedition 15 flight engineers Oleg Kotov and Suni Williams will
remain aboard the ISS with Yurchikhin. They are scheduled to be joined
by U.S. astronauts Clayton Anderson, who is to be launched aboard the
space shuttle Endeavor in June 28, and Daniel Tani, who is to arrive
aboard space shuttle Discovery in September, National Aeronautics and
Space Administration controllers in Houston said.
