Hi everyone!
I have some questions about the Soyuz spacecraft.
De-orbit burn
I've heard a couple of versions but which is the real one?
Landing
When the capsule is landed, is the parachute being released or does it remain attached? I have a diary from Frank de Winne and he said that the parachute is being released after landing but on the photos it always seems that the chute is still attached.
Thanks in advance!

- Is the orbital module jettisoned before or after the De-orbit burn.
- When the orbital module and the service module jettison, does it take the thermal blanket form the decent module, or does the blanket burn away in the atmosphere?
