- Despite an array of problems, the first space station, Salyut 1, made important progress toward living and working in space long-term and paved the way for future space stations. Launched by the Soviet Union in 1971, the port orbited the Earth almost 3,000 times during its 175 days in space before it was intentionally crashed into the Pacific Ocean.
Shaped like a cylinder, Salyut 1 bore three pressurized compartments for astronauts and one unpressurized area containing the engines and control equipment. The station was about 65 feet (20 meters) long and 13 feet (4 meters) in diameter at its widest point. Two double sets of solar panels extended like wings on the exterior of the compartments at either end.
Visiting the space station
Salyut 1 launched unmanned from the Soviet Union on April 19, 1971. Two days later, Soyuz 10 lifted off, carrying a crew of three toward the space station with the intention of remaining in space for 30 days. The cosmonauts attempted to dock with Salyut 1, but although they were able to lock onto the station, a problem with the hatch kept them from being able to enter it. They returned home early and unsuccessful. During the re-entry process, a problem rendered the air supply of Soyuz 10 toxic, and one of the cosmonauts slipped into unconsciousness. All three survived with no long-term effects.
On June 6, Soyuz 11 transported cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolski, Vladislav Vokov, and Viktor Patsayev to Salyut 1, where after three hours, they successfully docked with the station. They remained on board for 383 orbits in the course of just over three weeks, setting a new space endurance record. On June 16, smoke from a control panel caused the crew to consider abandoning the station, but the unit was switched off and the problem averted.
On June 29, the crew transferred back to the Soyuz 11 and began the return to Earth. Disaster struck when a ventilation valve was jolted open during the re-entry, depressurizing the interior of the ship. Cosmonauts at the time did not wear suits while in flight, so all three men were tragically killed. As a result, several changes were made to the Soviet policy, but they could not be implemented while Salyut 1 remained in orbit. No further trips were made to the station.
On October 11, 1971, the engines on Salyut 1 fired for the last time, bringing the space station into a lower orbit that would result in its eventual plunge into the Pacific Ocean. But despite its early death, Salyut 1 set the stage for stations to come after. The Soviets continued to put short-term stations into space for several years until they felt they were ready for a long-term project.

Very nice and well done.
Just one tiny small remark: the early Soyuz separated the Orbital Module before the reentry burn to save fuel. The practice ended when an Interkosmos crew to a later Salyut experienced an engine hiccup and had to remain other 24 hours in orbit without the Orbital Module, which contained such trivial commodities as the lavatory facilities.
Nonetheless, mad editing skillz!
Thanks for the info, I tried looking that up, but couldn't find when they started doing the dual sep.
Yikes! 24hrs with no bathroom! Yeah, sounds very trivial to me lol 😆
История! Класс! Спасибо!
I think you would greatly enjoy the book 'Almanac of Soviet Manned Space Flight' by Dennis Newkirk (1990 by Gulf Publishing Co.). It has wonderfully detailed information on all the early Soviet programs & very interesting stories I've never read anyplace else. Like the brandy filled chocolate candy incident of Salyut 6 for example. Covers up through the beginning stages of MIR.
In my bookshelf as we speak. A constant reference material for me. I highly recommend!
I happen to have that book myself.
Soyuz crew: "Hey uh, yeah... the space station looks like it was on fire, the air is just smoke and it smells like burning space"
USSR: "Nah it's fine, just spray some perfume and breathe through your mouths"
Excellent video, very informative. Keep up the good work!
It is interesting to note that the "Salyut" name was not on the station but rather "Zarya" or "Dawn" as wss its riginal designation.
I play re entry the orbital SIM quite a lot but this looks fun to. I love how re entry teaches you about the nasa programs and you feel like you really are doing it
awesome video thanks
Technically, Dobrovolsky, Volkov, and Patsayev are the only three humans ever to die _in_ space. Both _Challenger_ and _Columbia_ took place well below the Karman line.
I love love your RO videos! The shots and angles and everything is beautiful which makes them more fun to watch than just cut together basic gameplay footage~
This one was really sad thou ;~; but I hope you make more and stuff :3
Plan to!
YAY
Thanks to Russian experiences and sacrifices, we now have the ISS. Glory to the motherland!
ISS = Salyut Super Heavy
ISS = International Saylut Successor.
The I does not stand for International, it stands for succeeder of the failed space stations of the motherland
@@Red__Ray Isn't that how all progress is made. Making mistakes then correcting then to prevent recurrence. Look I greatly respect what our nation has accomplished and sacrificed. Does that mean I can't acknowledge the sacrifices and successes of other nations?
@@Red__Ray That was rude.
And kinda dumb.
Big ups! Thanks for the vid
Glad you watched!
@@kevincgustafson no doubt son!🙌
Great video, you should promote it more on the KSP forums, they will be happy. :)
Where on the forums do you suggest?
I'd suggest Reddit

Already posted my friend.
Thanks for video!
But there is one little mistake.
Conventional terminology for Soyuz rocket stages is:
four side blocks - "first stage", not "boosters";
central block - "second stage" (yes, it's engines start on launch pad, but it called "second");
and last (upper) stage - obviously, "third".
I agree, I've seen both, but noted for the future!
Антон Икрянников Yes, but they are boosters. So to call them boosters is not correct.
@@askhowiknow5527 They call them carrots!
thi s is a long overdue tribute to a group of heroes who took the first steps to establish a home in space
the Igla rendevouz system worked perfectly and the final approach and docking was done manually.
the fault occurred when the capture was engaged and at the last moment the spacecraft moved and the forward probe latches had engaged and the automatic retract sequence had begun but as I said a snmall deviation in alignment caused one of the retraction extension levers to bend and break and the probe could not fully retract to establish a hermetic seal between the docking collars and their latches.
Great work as always! I just realized that you have only 540 subs, i thought somebody that is making such an interesting stuff would have much more. Keep up the great work, waiting for more!
One day...
This is such an eye opener. Are you still doing videos on the Chinese Space Program?
You should be able to hide the mini-freezes by using some video editing software to remove consecutive frames that are identical to each other.
Awesome graphics
well done!
This was amazing, also third!
Nice :)
Ironically, Salyut 1 was the victim of Soyuz problems but Soyuzes is still in use, more than 45 years later. Salyut lasted only one year although worked pretty well.
But it was the basis of the rest of the space station program.
came here to watch a ksp video and ended up crying
I was laid off two weeks before STS-51L (Challenger). That and Soyuz QQ still get me teary eyed.
Pardon me союз-11.
Do you have the film showing a cosmonaut practicing egress from the LK? It appeared on the old A&E "Time Machine" series many years ago.
Hi. May I know where is the Roll Attitude thurster of the Soyuz?
Great again.
You make the best Videos.
This was the first Time,that i saw the Dead Cosmonauts.......
Keep on making this EXCELLENT Movies!!!!!!
Pls,could you post your Graphic Mods?
Your Version looks great and when I see mine.......
How did you get the terrain detail textures? Those have been broken in EVE for a while.
It's an earlier version of KSP.
What KSP version did you used for this? Because i have computer crashes when trying to use RSS and RO,and i have a plan to redo all Soviet space stations on KSP,from Salyuts to Mir,maybe even the ISS. Do you have such a plan?
This is using 1.1.3, but I do have a fairly stable 1.2.2 version I'll be using on upcoming videos. I wouldclike to highlight some other great Soviet station stories.
Thank you.
Russia isn't exactly renowned for their engineering prowess, but I have to say, that the Soyuz is probably the most reliable space rocket platform ever built.
What mod is the soyuz and salyut from, I would like to download it.
Mods are listed in the description. Soyuz is from Soviet Spacecraft - github.com/KSP-RO/SovietSpacecraft and the Salyut from the Salyut stations mod - github.com/KSP-RO/SalyutStations/releases
Did you see the little shout out you got from answer with Joe on his video about space stations?
No! Link?
Found it ua-cam.com/video/17i2kyEgjWE/v-deo.html
can you an alt timeline mission with the shuttle docking to Salyut 7? or Apollo?
Interesting idea. The Apollo hardware would be pretty outdated by 82 when Salyut 7 went up. But maybe the shuttle would work. Any ideas for a backstory?
for Apollo it have been Salyut 4 it's alt plan for the Apollo Soyuz mission. and for shuttle it was an idea to reboost seven into a higher orbit. it would had use spacelab as the docking module. giving seven two more years more life to it.
I see what you are saying, Alternate ASTP or doing what they had planned the Buran to do. Interesting Idea! I will add it to the list!
found it on the web. alt timelines for spaceflight interest me. the Apollo is called "the international docking reface mission (IDRM) and in the case of shuttle it was Buran was taking too damm long.
Awsoome
Great video! Just wondering, if this was done using KSP (obviously modded), why were there no burn-up effects (flames) in the video during the various re-entries and the stations final descent? Just wondering because it looked a bit odd how the space station just blew up at the end there. Otherwise great video and simulation. Very interesting.
The re-entry was so steep that it heated beyond the parts limit before it could break up.
Also at 10:50 you can see re entry effects.
Ok, I see. So it heated up and exploded before things started burning up? I watched again btw, and I see now there was reentry effects on the other reentry. I was just wondering because I'm new to KSP and used to the stock game where I have burnt up in the atmosphere many times :) hehe.
Welcome to the KSP crew! Definitely check out the re entry particle effect to help you out. And don't make your re-entry angles too steep unless you want to kill your stuff like I did here for Salyut. For stock KSP, try to get your AP somewhere between 20-40k and you'll get down without much issue - provided you have parachutes! spacedock.info/mod/819/Reentry%20Particle%20Effect
Thanks for the tip! I'll try try to remember that next time I'm hurtling towards the earth (or kerbin). I have KSP version 1.3 and the particle mod says its for 1.2. Will it still work?
Not bad. Are you able to do a Skylab one?
On the Radar
Crew of союз-10 failed to dock to салют-1 but survived. Crew of союз-11 archived probably everything they've been requested and found death afterwards. Would you like to join the winning or the loosing crew?
uh oh soyuz 11!
What mod adds the Salyut and Soyuz?
Search for soviet rockets soviet spacecraft and soviet stations ota probably the first link
12:35 something is wrong here, I can feel it
10:10 what music?!?!
Blin3, blin2, blin1, Boris Blyat Blin. Now the space belongs to everyone, but you should pay the taxes and give yours resources to us, of course.
A polish museum has used ur thing as a animated launch of soyuz*
Really?! Can you tell me which one? That's amazing!
