Russians in 100th Orbit of Earth
Soviet cosmonauts Andrian Nikolayev and Vitaly Sevastyanov completed their 100th orbit in sixth night of the So yuz 9 flight. The mission set a Soviet duration record while keeping a return or end date undisclosed. Pravda extols manned spaceflight over automation and argues crews solve subtle, creative tasks beyond computers. The piece notes U.S. moon efforts are questioned but unmanned lunar landings remain unproven. The report also touches on Pope Alexander VI's Line of Demarcation and John Adams and Thomas Jefferson presidential succession precedent.
