Russian space station MIR

The maintenance crew of the station in Russian orbit starts an innovation program. This program was interrupted last spring due to the failure of a scuba saw and the loss of the arm joystick to pass the axis module to the cross section (and vice versa).

In 1995, however, the North American fleet Atlantis and the Crystal modules will unite, but in the latter it is necessary a great previous transformation. To do this, Basil Txibliev and Alexander Serebov began to leave regularly last September. For example, on the 16th, 4 hours 18 minutes, 3 hours 13 minutes on the 20th of September and 2 hours 28 minutes. A structure was then replaced to study cosmic rays.
