                   The three were launched together to space 4 months ago. They

                   spent  4  months  very  close  to  each  other  in  the  Russian  space


                   station "MIR" and they returned back to Earth just last weekend

                   inside the American shuttle "Atlantis".



                   The complaints of the Russian cosmonauts about their American


                   colleague got wide coverage in the German newspapers. "Each

                   time contact was established with Huston, Thagard complained

                          during the flight.



                       3. He behaved strangely during TV interviews.



                       4. He complained all the time about the cultural isolation, in
