Saturn Apollo Program
"This artist's concept depicts the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP), the first international docking of the U.S.'s Apollo spacecraft and the U.S.S.R.'s Soyuz spacecraft in space. The objective of the ASTP mission was to provide the basis for a standardized international system for docking of marned spacecraft. The Soyuz spacecraft, with Cosmonauts Alexei Leonov and Valeri Kubasov aboard, was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome near Tyuratam in the Kazakh, Soviet Socialist Republic, at 8:20 a.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Apollo spacecraft, with Astronauts Thomas Stafford, Vance Brand, and Donald Slayton aboard, was launched from Launch Complex 39B, Kennedy Space Center, Florida, at 3:50 p.m. (EDT) on July 15, 1975. The Primary objectives of the ASTP were achieved. They performed spacecraft rendezvous, docking and undocking, conducted intervehicular crew transfer, and demonstrated the interaction of U.S. and U.S.S.R. control centers and spacecraft crews. The mission marked the last use of a Saturn launch vehicle. The Marshall Space Flight Center was responsible for development and sustaining engineering of the Saturn IB launch vehicle during the mission."

Bir insansız Soyuz 7K-TM uzay aracı Apollo-Soyuz Test Projesi (ASTP) sırasında Apollo modülünden görülüyor.⠀ ⠀ Bu sahne elde tutulan 70 mm’lik bir kamerayla Dünya yörüngesindeki Amerikan Apollo uzay aracının bir buluşma penceresinden fotoğraflanmış. Fotoğraf alttaki Dünya’nın ufkuyla birlikte arka plandaki karanlık gökyüzüne karşı kontrast oluşturan Sovyet Soyuz uzay aracını gösteriyor. Amerikan Kenetlenme Mekanizması (DM) en üstte görülebiliyor. 3 Nisan 1974’te fırlatılan Kosmos 638 ASTP’nin insansız bir denemesiydi. Araç aynı zamanda üzerinde APAS-75 androjen kenetlenme sistemi de taşıyordu. Bunu aynı uzay aracı tipinin bir başka insansız denemesi Kosmos 672 takip etti. Bu görev sırasında yörünge modülünden bırakılan hava (kapsülün atmosfere geri girişi öncesinde atılan) uzay aracında beklenmeyen bazı hareketlere sebep olmuş. Bu da bir sonraki testin de insansız gerçekleştirilmesine yol açmış.⠀ ⠀ #hayallerinotesine #astronomi #uzaydanhaberler #bilim #uzay #teknoloji #tobeyonddreams #astronomy #science #technology #space #tbt

Apollo-Soyuz test project.
The Apollo-Soyuz test was a project to connect two spacecraft from rivalling nations, the US and the USSR, using Bill Creasy’s version of the “Androgynous Peripheral Attach System.“
The crew for the Apollo team were:
Thomas P Stafford

Vance D Brand

Donald K Slayton

And the crew for the Soyuz team were:
Alexey Leonov

Valeri Kubasov

The crews flew different ships, the US using the Apollo Command/Service Module (CSM) and the USSR used a Soyuz 7K-TM.

On July 15th, 1975, both ships launched from their countries, and, on July 17th, they both docked with each other.

The mission was a success, and after about 2 days, the ships parted and returned, Soyuz landing on the 21st July, and Apollo on the 24th.

Photos of the Apollo Command and Service Modules (CSM-098) being set up as part of the Apollo Soyuz Test Project display in Moscow. This CSM was used during 2-TV-1 and 2-TV-2, which was the thermal vacuum evaluation testing of the Apollo program. It was donated to the Smithsonian on December 16, 1975.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In 1977, it was loaned to the Cosmos Pavillion to be a part of said display. The exhibition was dedicated to Soviet technology from the 1960s, in response to the great New York fair.
Tumblr media
It is now displayed at the RKK Energia Museum in Korolyov, Moscow Oblast, Russia, with the Engineering test model of the Soyuz 19. Under the display is the original Soyuz 19 descent module.

Saturn Apollo Program
"This illustration depicts a comparison of two space vehicles, the U.S.'s Saturn IB launch vehicle and the U.S.S.R.'s Soyuz launch vehicle, for the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. The ASTP was the first international docking of the U.S.'s Apollo spacecraft and the U.S.S.R.'s Soyuz spacecraft in space. A joint engineering team from the two countries met to develop a docking system that permitted the two spacecraft to link in space and allowed the two crews to travel from one spacecraft to the other. This system entailed developing a large habitable Docking Module (DM) to be carried on the Apollo spacecraft to facilitate the joining of two dissimilar spacecraft. The Marshall Space Flight Center was responsible for development and sustaining engineering of the Saturn IB launch vehicle during the mission."
