Astronaunts who spent five months in space to work at the International Space Station arrived back on Earth safely on Sept. 11

Russians Pavel Vinogradov and Alexander Misurkin and American Chris Cassidy touched down in Kazakhstan, a country located on the border of Russia, at 10:58 p.m. EDT, or 8:58 local time, according to NASA.

"Everything went well, very smoothly," said Vinogradov, according to AFP.

The shuttle was seen parachuting to a safe landing during a live NASA broadcast. Helicopters were then sent to the landing site where medics and flight crews assisted the men.

The space capsule was undocked from space station on Sept. 10 at 7:37 p.m. EDT for a three hour flight back to Earth, according to NASA.

The men went into space from the Baikonur cosmodrome back on March 29.

"Pavel (Vinogradov) was leading us the whole way. It was just a memorable flight," said Cassidy, shaking hands with Vinogradov.

During their mission, the astronauts completed 2,656 orbits of the Earth, moving 70 million miles, according to NASA.

Each astronaut completed at least one spacewalk while in space.
