		Almaz main console - The main console for operating the Almaz space station, placed to the left of the camera operation console.
		Almaz was assigned the index number previously allocated to the Soyuz-R station, and Kozlov was ordered to hand over to Chelomei all of the work completed in relation to the station.

	The Almaz program (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab-4.cs.princeton.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		For most of the 1960s, the Almaz program was put on the backburner, as the Soviet space industry concentrated its main efforts on the Moon race with the United States.
		The Almaz station was downgraded to a heavy radar-carrying reconnaissance satellite, which could be visited by servicing crews and later to a fully unmanned spacecraft.
		As proposed in 1964, the Almaz space station, also designated 11F71 or 11F71B, was designed to have a rotating crew of three people and an operational life of one or two years.

	Almaz (Salyut) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Almaz was a small space station project developed specifically for purposes of piloted observational recconnaissance of U.S. military assets from low Earth orbit.
		The use of the TKS as a crew delivery and add-on vehicle for the Almaz core station was stipulated in an official governmental decree dated 16 June 1970.
		Certainly the most enigmatic payload on the Almaz space station complex was a 23 mm rapid fire cannon developed by OKB-16 (now KB Tochmash) headed by Chief Designer A. Nudel'man. Although unofficial sources hint that the cannon was actually carried on Salyut-3, most reliable sources suggest that the weapon was never deployed in orbit.

		Almaz on the other hand did not require a new launch vehicle, although the UR-500 was in a period of intense 'baby sickness'.
		Spacecraft: Salyut 1, Soyuz 7K-LOK, LK, Almaz OPS, Soyuz OB-VI, Soyuz VI.

	Almaz - Russia and Earth Observation Systems
		Almaz was flown three times during the 1970's (Salyut 2 in 1973, Salyut 3 in 1974, and Salyut 5 in 1976) and its civilian derivative was used for the remaining Salyut missions.
		The initial on-orbit mass of Almaz 1 was 18,500 kg with sufficient propellants to maintain the vehicle at a low altitude for up to two years and to provide for a controlled reentry over abroad ocean area at the end of mission.
		On Almaz 1 this was divided Between the SAR and a multi-channel microwave radiometer operating at 6-37.5 GHz with a swath of 600 km and a resolution of 10-30 km.

	Almaz OPS
		Almaz flights were delayed in 1970 when resources were diverted in a crash program to modify Almaz into the civilian Salyut space station in order to upstage the American Skylab.
		Almaz was assigned the 11F71 index number previously allocated to the Soyuz-R station, and Kozlov was ordered to hand over to Chelomei all of the work completed in relation to the station.
		Almaz was ready for launch on 1 March 1973 but planned launches on 5, 15, and 25 March were scrubbed due to Mishin's Soyuz not being ready.

	eoPortal directory: Almaz Program
		The Almaz small space station design concept was to support a crew of 2-3 cosmonauts (on a rotating basis) with an operational spacecraft life of one to two years.
		As a consequence, the Almaz space station was downgraded to a heavy radar-carrying reconnaissance satellite, which could be visited by servicing crews and later to a fully unmanned (referred to as "automatic") spacecraft.
		Epilog: The Almaz and TKS designs, however, live on into the 21st century - the Almaz as the ISS (International Space Station) base block since the Zvezda module is of OPS-5/Almaz heritage.

	Almaz-T (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		The results of the manned Almaz flights showed that manned reconnaissance from space was not worth the expense.
		As a counterpoint to the American Lacrosse satellite, this version of Almaz had an enormous S-Band synthetic aperture radar which returned images of 10 to 15 meter resolution.
		To the designers' surprise, the Almaz was in decent condition (in contrast to its fairing, which had been used as a toilet).

	Almaz-T spacecraft
		(146) The Almaz was downgraded to a heavy radar-carrying reconaissance satellite, which could be visited by servicing crews.
		A total three already manufactured Almaz station hulls were to be converted into unmanned Almaz-T satellites.
		The organization hoped to use the experience accumulated in the course of the project for the development of a light-weight radar-carrying satellite for the Russian military as well as for the potential commercial users, if such could be found.

	Almaz space station (OPS) 11F71 (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab-4.cs.princeton.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		As proposed in 1964, the Almaz space station, also designated 11F71 or 11F71B, was designed to have a rotating crew of three people and an operational life of 1-2 years.
		The Almaz was to be equipped with two RD-0225 (11D24) orbital maneuvering engines and 32 small attitude control thrusters.
		The last manned Almaz station (OPS No. 104), equipped with a second docking port in the front section, was scheduled for launch in 1978, before the project was canceled.

	GPN-2002-000189 - Model of Almaz Space Station
		This is a model of the military Almaz space station on display.
		Almaz was the Soviet Ministry of Defense's Earth-orbital complex where cosmonauts would conduct scientific activities and experiments as well as perform photographic and visual reconnaissance.
		The launch of Almaz 1, also known as Salyut 2, ended in failure when pressure in the main hull dropped, which made the Almaz 1 unusable for cosmonaut habitation.

	Almaz Meko Joins OLF
		The Speaker of the House of the Federation, Almaz Meko, who sought asylum in the United States has announced her decision to join the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF).
		Almaz in a letter accused the government of "persecuting the Oromos" and the Oromo Peoples Democratic Organization "is being prevented from becoming an autonomous organization representing Oromo national interest and reduced to a rubber stamp for TPLF rule over Oromia."
		Almaz said there is no democracy and federalism in Ethiopia and Oromia has become an appendage of Tigray.

	Almaz space stations
		Russian journalists have written (1) that the Central Committe were taken in by Almaz' as a "space fortress" which was seen as "a response to Chamberlain" (2).
		To be able to test Almaz without either the TKS or the VA ready, the Almaz base block was launched without the VA and the Soyuz ferry was used to transfer cosmonauts to the station.
		The first Almaz that was launched was called Salyut-2 was launched into orbit at 0900 UT on 3 April 1973.

	Almaz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Following the delays to the Soyuz project, Almaz also assumed the role of intercepting military satellites.
		In addition to reconnaissance equipment, the Almaz had an on-board cannon derived from the 23mm Nudelmann aircraft cannon (other sources say it was a Nudelmann NR-30 30mm gun).
		Following the cancellation of the manned Almaz program, leftover Almaz spaceframes flew, a decade later, as unmanned radar satellites.

		for those that are interested, the last 4 glaz almaz songs recorded by brian and i have been posted on myspace.
		What pushes Glaz Almaz in mirthful bizarro world is how Sputnik and Shannon short-circuit the urge to roll over fully into complacent seriously rocking band and instead mock just about every cool groove and boss riff in their arsenal.
		Knives evolves into something straight out of a really overcaffeinated role-playing video-game session once the lyrics kick in, and that you cant tell if Glaz Almaz is being serious about its only kinda spooky vocal distortion or just taking the piss outta underground extreme music is part of the fun.
