Soyuz 10 docks as Salute plan signals space station aim
The Tass report says Soyuz 10 launched into space at 2 54 Moscow time and docked nine minutes later as broader goals push toward a manned orbital station. Commanded by Col. Vladimir Shatalov, the crew included Nikolai Rukavishnikov and Alexei Yeliseyev, with Beregovoi noting Salute can operate automatically or manually. The article recalls Soyuz 1s fatal parachute failure and Komarov’s death, framing the milestone in context of future assembly, experiments, and medical research in space.
