    At the time, Krikalev was supposed to serve in the military reserves, and was almost issued a warrant for desertion – before the army realised that their reserve soldier was not even on the planet.

    Soviet cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev was in space when the Soviet Union fell apart in 1991. Unable to return home, he had to stay in space until further notice. The cosmonaut eventually returned back to earth after 10 months in orbit - to a very different nation. Photo by Volkov/TASS

    Here is a picture of my mom, aunt, and grandmother, in traditional uniform. They danced professionally, in a dance group called Kabardinka, located in the Kabardino-Balkaria region of the Caucasus, which is now a part of Russia. We are Circassian. Let’s get this to the top!!!
