Awesome news! I've really enjoyed the updates he's been doing from the ISS, especially the photos. Can't imagine how hard it is to return to a gravity environment after such a long period of time in microgravity.

Yeah I see in the video clip they have to carry him and put him into a wheel chair.
Must have to do loads of physiotherapy for a while

Apparently just sitting is agony - Chris Hadfield talks about it in his book, which is an interesting read
