Soviet orbiter boosts space knowledge and study aims
CAPE KENNEDY AP By orbiting a three man spaceship the Soviet Union gains a large step in space conquest and gathers on the spot data on medical and scientific aspects of orbital flight. The Voskhod crew includes Boris Yegorov and Konstantin Feoktistov to study radiation, weightlessness, artificial gravity possibilities and crew compatibility. U S plans focus on automated data collection and multi man stations in the 1970s while training pilots in science. Valentina Tereshkova's precedent shows piloting does not require extensive prior flight time.
