	Soyuz programme - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Soyuz human spaceflight programme was initiated in the early 1960s as part of the manned lunar programme that was intended to put a Soviet cosmonaut on the Moon.
		Soyuz survived the demise of the manned lunar programme in that it developed into a variety of projects (both military and civilian), mostly in conjunction with space stations.
		Soyuz 1 through 11 (1967-1971) were first-generation vehicles, carrying a crew of up to three without spacesuits and distinguished from those following by their bent solar panels and their use of the Igla automatic docking navigation system, which required special radar antennas.

	Soyuz
		The manned Soyuz spacecraft was originally conceived by Sergei Korolev in 1961 as a component of the “Soyuz complex” that also included unmanned booster modules and orbiting fuel tankers and was geared toward a manned mission to the Moon (see Russian manned lunar programs).
		Three-man missions involving a Soyuz modified by the removal of large fuel tank at the rear of the instrument module (not needed with the abandonment of the Moon plan) and the addition of a new docking system with a hatch to allow cosmonauts to transfer to a space station without a spacewalk.
		Soyuz 11 docked with the station normally but its crew was killed during reentry when a valve opened suddenly and allowed all the air in the descent module to escape.

	Space: Soyuz11 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Soyuz 11 was launched on June 6 1971 with the goal ferrying cosmonauts G. Dobrovolsky, V. Patsayev, and V. Volkov to the Salyut 1 space station.
		Soyuz 1 successfully docked with the station on June 7, and the crew began a mission to set a then record duration of 23 days (22 on the station).
		By the time Soyuz 12 was flown in September 27, 1973 the Soyuz spacecraft was not only reengineered with redundant backup systems, but cosmonaut crews were now required to wear partial pressure suits, a practice which still continues to this day.

		The Soyuz TM-8 crew, consisting of Commander A. Viktorenko and Flight Engineer A. Serebrov, docked with the Mir Space Station on the 8th September after five months which the station was uninhabited.
		The new Kvant-2 module was launched on the 26th November and was docked to Mir by the TM-8 crew on the 2nd December.
		The Soyuz TM-8 spacecraft was launched on the 5th September 1989 and spent 166 days in space; landing on the 19th February 1990.

		Soyuz 13 carried the Orion astrophysical observatory, which was never deployed to the Salyut space station.
		Soyuz 15 had to cut its trip to Salyut 3 for a two-week mission short when their guidance system failed.

		The VVS insists that the Soyuz 10 crew land in daylight.
		The Launch Commission decides that Soyuz 11 is to be rolled out to the pad at 06:00 on 4 June, with launch at 07:39 on 6 June, with Dobrovolsky's crew aboard.
		Meanwhile there are concerns that Soyuz 11 may be able to reach the desired mission length, but that Soyuz 12 may not be safe to fly by its launch date.

		The flight of Soyuz 11 also ended in tragedy for the Russians when a vent in the Soyuz craft opened during the crew's return from a successful first mission aboard Salyut 1.
		Soyuz is basically a ferry craft to the Russian space stations, Salyut and Mir, and three major variants have flown, 40 of the original type, 15 of the Soyuz T type, and (through July 1996) 23 of the Soyuz TM type.
		In 2000, Soyuz operations transitioned from long-duration flights to Mir (last flight April 2000) to ferrying crews to and from the International Space Station (first flight October 2000).

		Olsen was assigned to the Soyuz TMA-7 crew, scheduled to fly in the fall of 2005.
		Just after Expedition 12 members board the station, they were scheduled receive a safety briefing and then begin extensive handover briefings from their Expedition 11 predecessors.
		On November 18, 2005, at 11:45 Moscow Time, the Soyuz TMA-7 separated from the Pirs Docking Compartment and after backing away some 30 meters from the station, docked to the nadir port of the Zarya control module 20 minutes later under a manual control.

	SingaporeMoms - Parenting Encyclopedia - Mir
		Soyuz (Союз) means "union," so named for the USSR (Sovietskii Soyuz, Советский Союз = Soviet Union) and because the spacecraft was a union of three smaller modules.
		This image was recorded by astronauts as the Space Shuttle Atlantis approached the Russian space station prior to docking during the STS-76 mission.
		During their stay the space station went through rough times and several acute emergencies occurred, notably a large fire on February 23 1997, and a collision with a Progress (unmanned) cargo ship on June 25 of the same year.

		After the Soyuz 11 tragedy, in which all three unsuited cosmonauts died in a decompression accident, the Soviets scrambled to produce new IVA suits.
		The suit was tested on the ground in 1972 and in space onboard Soyuz 12 in September 1973.
		From that point onward, the Sokol-K1 and its subsequent generations were used on all Soyuz flights for the launch, docking, and descent phases.
