Sporting his trademark clown\'s nose, a grinning Guy Laliberte gave the thumbs-up after Canada\'s first space tourist returned to Earth early Sunday aboard a Russian Soyuz spacecraft. The founder of Cirque du Soleil, along with American astronaut Michael Barratt and Russia cosmonaut Gennady Padalka, floated under a canopy of parachutes to a safe landing in Kazakhstan in central Asia. Russian space agency officials said re-entry into the atmosphere went smoothly and the landing was nearly dead on target.
