In Moscow a Russian cosmonaut tumbled inside the Salute space laboratory during a TV session with ground controllers. Lt. Col. Georgy Dobrovolsky floated on his back and pedaled to simulate cycling while discussing the space suit, its comfort, and a new design for keeping muscles active. The crew also spoke of cherished mementoes including portraits of Lenin, Gagarin, and Korolev as Viktor Patsayev remained off screen. It was the third day aboard the station for the trio.
