[FPSPACE] So what can we make of these stories from Yi?

[Geert Sassen]

Did she suffer these injuries from the G-forces during re-entry or from 
touch-down?

Despite the landing-rockets a soyuz touch-down is always rough, 
according most stories, however it sounds like this time it really did 
touch down very hard.
On some of the pictures you see officials standing close to what looks 
like a 'crater' or at least a deep dent in the soil, with the cabine 
lying a bit further on, as if it hit very hard, then bounced up, and 
turned up on its side some meters further on. The fact that Soyuz 5, who 
also suffered separation-problems, also touched down very hard is food 
for thought...

Regards,

Geert.
