Rather than debating on the nationality of the astronauts, lets be happy on the safe landing of atlantis and all its astronauts. Also, our country can derive inspiration from this achievement and aim at conquering greater achievements beneficial to mankind.

I agree with you. They have done a tremendous job by fixing the glitches on board and returning safely. BUT OUR MEDIA NEEDS A RAP. The way, CNN, NDTV and TIMESNOW, kept covered the story, it appeared that this was a one woman space flight. So, it was a surprise when I saw the whole crew on board. OUR MEDIA WITH ITS YOU LOT OF EVANGELIST TYPE REPORTERS HAVE NO IDEA OF REPORTING AN EVENT. They forget one simple fact that, when you cover a story or event, you cover it in totality and just not keep harping on SUNITA. Through out her mission, these media channels kept on forcefeeding her samosas, idlis, vadas, parothas and what not. No wonder, when she landed, she looked overweight SHAME ON YOU NATIONAL MEDIA. YOU ARE ALL STILL AMATEURS AND REALLY HAVE NO IDEA OF REPORTING EXCEPT SENASATIONALISING REAL ISSUES. RECENT EXAMPLES ARE - ABHI-ASH MARRIAGE, LIZ HURLEY MARRIAGE, RECENT RELEASE OF SIVAJI. YOU NEED TO RELEARN WHAT IS SERIOUS NEWS AND WHAT IS TRIVIAL OR SEPARATE OUT THE TWO AS TWO DISTINCT FEATURES AND COVER IT SEPARATELY AND NOT AS HEADLINE NEWS
