'Space clown' lands back on Earth

Billionaire circus entrepreneur Guy Laliberte has returned to Earth after a 10-day tourist visit to the International Space Station (ISS).


A Soyuz capsule carrying Mr Laliberte and two astronauts landed in Kazakhstan at 1032 local time (0432GMT).
Mr Laliberte, who called himself "the first clown in space", used his trip to promote awareness of water shortages.
On Saturday, he hosted an international performance of artists and speakers to draw attention to the issue.
"The team took the landing quite well; they are feeling fine," a space official was quoted as saying by the RIA Novosti news agency.
Television footage later showed Mr Laliberte emerging from the capsule wearing the red clown's nose he had worn for much of his time in space.
He travelled back to Earth with Russian cosmonaut Gennady Padalka and Nasa astronaut Michael Barratt from the US, leaving six people still on board the ISS.
Padalka's departure from the station leaves Belgian Frank de Winne in command. De Winne is the first astronaut not from the US and Russian space agencies to hold the position.
