	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.

		The Soyuz TMA spacecraft is designed to serve as the International Space Station's crew return vehicle, acting as a lifeboat in the unlikely event an emergency would require the crew to leave the station.
		The Soyuz TMA spacecraft is a replacement for the Soyuz TM, which was used from May 1986 to November 2002 to take astronauts and cosmonauts to Mir and then to the International Space Station beginning in November 2000.
		The Soyuz TMA spacecraft is composed of three elements attached end-to-end — the Orbital Module, the Descent Module and the Instrumentation/Propulsion Module.

		The decision to develop the launch infrastructure to enable Soyuz to be launched from French Guiana is of mutual interest to both Europe and Russia and benefits from funding from the European Community.
		The Soyuz launch vehicle that will be used at Europe's Spaceport is the Soyuz-2 version called Soyuz-ST. This includes the Fregat upper stage and the ST fairing.
		The Soyuz rocket is the workhorse of the Russian human spaceflight missions and has been used for that purpose longer than any other spacecraft.

		The new Soyuz is needed because the lifeboat currently docked to the station, the same spacecraft that launched the lab's first full time crew on Oct. 31, is nearing the end of its certified 180-day orbital lifetime.
		The Soyuz cannot dock to the station while the shuttle is attached because it would have to pass close to Endeavour's vertical tail fin on final approach and it's not known how that proximity might affect the Russian craft's radar and other systems.
		The Soyuz TM-32 vehicle is scheduled for liftoff from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan at 3:38 a.m.

		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).

		MOSCOW - A Russian state commission has set Oct. 30 as the launch date for a Soyuz-FG rocket carrying a three-person crew to the International Space Station (ISS).
