english: But instead of riding into the atmosphere just screaming, like you would if suddenly you found yourself riding a meteorite back to Earth -- (Laughter) -- instead, 20 years previously we had started studying Russian, and then once you learn Russian, then we learned orbital mechanics in Russian, and then we learned vehicle control theory, and then we got into the simulator and practiced over and over and over again.
non_english: Umesto da vozimo kroz atmosferu uz vrisku, kao što biste radili ako biste se odjednom našli kako vozite meteorit do Zemlje - (Smeh) - umesto toga, mi smo dvadeset godina ranije počeli da učimo ruski, a kada jednom naučite ruski, onda ste naučili i astrodinamiku na ruskom, a potom i teoriju upravljanja vozilom. Onda smo dospeli u simulator i vežbali sve iznova i iznova.
