International Space Station Crew Reflections at Year's End

Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 18 Commander Mike Fincke and Flight Engineers Sandy Magnus and Yury Lonchakov downlinked a message on Dec.

29, 2008.

From their vantage point 220 miles above the Earth, the crew members expressed their year-end thoughts on the significance of the international outpost and their new year's wish for the complex in 2009.

The crew also shared their wish for peace in the language of all of the countries represented in the space station partnership.
