- Chabot Space & Science Center in Oakland, California has a Soyuz descent module on display, allowing visitors to look inside the interior of the spacecraft and see the hardware. This one is particularly special because it's a 7K-OK model, the very first generation of Soyuz capsules from the 1960's, which stopped flying after a design flaw killed the crew of Salyut 11. As far as I know this is the only Soyuz capsule of this vintage with the interior on display outside of the former USSR.
The capsule is on display at Chabot Space And Science Center in Oakland, California chabotspace.org/

For me as a native Russian speaker it was fun when Scott tried to figure out the functionality of some buttons and gauges.
And he made it!! That was quite unexpected for me :-)
Right now, I need to guess these too, but I'm currently learning Russian so hopefully in a few weeks I can understand the name of the butttons

Space is so gay!!,,
!
The good ol' soviet technology.... More electromechanical, than digital stuff... I bet it still could run nowadays!

Scott attempting to read Cyrillic and getting it mostly correct, makes me weirdly happy.
Not only read, but also understand. Not bad.
He did get the OKC part wrong... it's actually OKS ;)
Well at least he knows the numbers perfectly :)
@@ModEscharPlays Well considering N on the other side it may be OKC for real! (actually, it surely is OKC - I'm only unsure if it is Cyrillic or Latin alphabet :-D - here in Serbia we are using both, but we are never mixing them -- if that is the case it is OKC or (ОКЦ) definitely)
Nice Russian skills, Scott!
This model of Soyuz was used to test orbital rendezvous and docking. Hence the control system contains equipment for that:
8:23 - Video screen for inboard and outboard docking cameras. It could also display analog sensor info like fuel levels, yaw/pitch etc..
9:33 - Rendezvous velocity and distance indicator and buttons for main functions from command panel.
9:36 - Radio volume and band control (on the top of the screen).
9:52 - Round - capsule power supply indicator. Square - life support info.
10:20 - Right control panel. There should be exactly same panel on the left.
10:22 - Flat screen is the computer status display - shows current running program.
10:30 - Knobs for manoeuvring control. Has a deltaV range of 0.044-150.0 m/s.
Wow, thank you!!!
Where do most of the Soyuz capsules go after they fly? I feel like they would be in more museums since there are so many of them. Do they go to a storage facility? Do most of them go to a "aircraft graveyard"?
@@grahammckemy1390 Don't know what happens to the actual capsules, but the control panels and electronics are reused.
What model did they switch over from the analog gauges to the modern day glass cockpit?
Cool knowledge Ilya dorokhov.!!👍
I like 1960s & 70s era Soviet space tech. It wasn't fancy, it just did the job extremely well.
It's amazing how Spartan the technology was, and realize miniaturization was in it's infancy, so there really wasn't a whole lot going on as far as data collection. There was an American character actor in the '60's who played a "Mexican cosmonaut" who's favorite part of space travel was the blast off, "cuz you got to get blasted to up in one of them things". Wonder if Soviet Cosmonauts might've been privy to the good stuff?
It is very fancy - for the time!

That was Astronaut José Jiménez, a character played by Comedian Bill Dana
I look inside and I simply can't imagine anyone but the most hardcore, hardass, balls of steel types actually getting inside, waiting while they wrench the hatch closed, and saying, "Ok, now light this thing up!" (With respect to Valentina Tereshkova, who flew in a Vostok, I imagine she was cut of the same cloth, but I don't know how to say "woman with balls of steel" in English.) I'm claustrophobic just watching the video.
@@jackster8976 Soyuz 1 is an incredible story, so I wrote it down in the wall of words below in case you're interested. The success of the ongoing Soyuz program today really argues against any criticism based on safety or engineering. Col. Vladimir Komarov is a hero of mine. He died alone when his Soyuz 1 capsule hit the ground and burst into flames just north of the Kazakhstan border in Russia. (One day I intend to visit the Komarov monument there and share a good bottle of vodka with my hero.) That was IMO not a matter of poor or inadequate technology or engineering. It was a politically driven human sacrifice, and Komarov walked into it knowing exactly what was going to happen. Every Soviet Cosmonaut knew.
The large number of system faults aboard Soyuz 1 were all known issues that were being addressed by the design engineers, but the Soviet premier Leonid Brezhnev ordered the launch to proceed in time for the 50th anniversary of the Soviet Union. He would either have a new hero to present in the 1967 May Day parade or a dead hero to inspire the Soviet people. He didn't care which. They only needed a little more time to fix the issues that killed Col. Komarov, but Brezhnev would not wait. They hadn't even tested all the systems by the time they launched. All the Soyuz Cosmonauts knew the machine wasn't ready for flight, and so did the engineers. Their protests are well documented.
Due to Komarov's remarkable skill as a pilot and engineer, he nearly saved himself. Despite major failures in nearly every system, he was able to orient the tumbling capsule to the correct angle for a re-entry burn, and he successfully fired the retro-rockets. He re-entered, and his descent was normal most of the way. Unfortunately, his main parachute got tangled up and didn't deploy properly. His back-up parachute got stuck in the deployment tube, so it couldn't deploy either.
I've read two explanations for that failure of the back-up parachute. 1. The inside of the tube had been given a layer of heat-resistant paint that the parachute engineers didn't plan for, so it didn't fit properly. The technicians who packed that parachute had to force the chute into the tube with a big mallet. 2. Because only one of the two solar panels had deployed on reaching orbit, and that one was not effective due to the constant tumbling of the spacecraft, preventing Komarov from orienting it toward the sun, he was essentially flying on battery power, which was depleted during descent. (That much is documented.) There wasn't enough power to trigger deployment of the back-up chute. A third explanation I've read is that the back-up chute simply became entangled with the tangled main chute.
Col. Komarov agreed to fly his suicide mission because if he refused, they would send his backup in his place, his best friend, Yuri Gagarin, who was the first human in space and a MAJOR soviet hero. (Gagarin would have gone.) Gagarin pleaded personally with Brezhnev to give them time to finish working out the many engineering problems, but Brezhnev wasn't having it. Komarov's death ruined Gagarin. It ended his career, and there was talk that Brezhnev was ready to have him "disappear" because he was so public with his personal protests made directly to Brezhnev, often in front of important people, causing him huge embarrassment. Gagarin went into a deep and prolonged depression and drank heavily (yeah, even by Russian standards). Within 2 years he was dead too. He had sobered up and accepted an air force assignment as a fighter pilot, and he died in a training accident. (Conspiracy theorists think it was no accident, but an assassination ordered by Brezhnev. I don't buy it, but I won't argue about it.)
The other fatal Soyuz flight happened in 1971 (Soyuz 11), when an air valve got stuck open when the landing module separated for re-entry. It was supposed to close automatically, but the exploding bolts that separated the modules fired incorrectly. However, the possibility of this failure was known, and the crew was advised to close the valve manually. For whatever reason, they didn't, and all the air in their capsule escaped into space. Not a story of heroism, just a known issue that wasn't addressed properly. (That's what brought down the Space Shuttle Columbia - a known problem that hadn't been addressed.)
The Soyuz remains the safest and most successful manned spacecraft ever, as is the R7 booster that puts it in orbit. It continues in service today as the primary space vehicle in the Russian space program. Recently it even became the first spacecraft to execute an inflight launch abort, returning the two-man crew safely to the Earth. There has never been a safer manned spacecraft ever than the Soyuz atop an R7 booster (now called the Soyuz booster). In fact, there have been over 1680 total Soyuz flights, and over 140 were manned. ~40 Americans have flown at least once on the Russian Soyuz, not counting the three who flew in orbit only as guests aboard Soyuz 19 while it was docked to their Apollo spacecraft in 1975. The Soyuz spacecraft in use today contain newer electronics, bigger solar panels, and seats that accommodate taller passengers, but the actual Soyuz spacecraft itself has been changed very little.
I think their 1960's technology was absolutely rock solid, and Komarov understood it better than anyone. I think he knew it would be a great machine if they'd been allowed enough time to finish their engineering work. However, their political system was an absolute catastrophe, and he knew that too. Col. Vladimir Komarov was killed by that political system.
(If you're wondering, I'm an American, a former Apollo kid, so I'm not just spewing pro-Soviet or pro-Russian propaganda. Since the late 1960s, space was the one place where we could truly be friends with the Soviets and cooperate on research and development. I wish we'd extend that same friendship to China today.)
This felt like an episode of "Inside the chieftains hatch" but for space nerds. I absolutely loved it and would die to see episodes about other capsules as well 🙂
Inside the Commander's Hatch
If we get deep into invention of Phillips screws - they have two key advantages to them: -Self centering for automated power tools and -Auto limiting applied torque - preserving heads and treads.
-But then also Phillips screws very difficult to
precisely control exact tightening torque. That's why Torx was invented - it's combining advantages of Slotted and Phillips screws.
Since early Spacecrafts assembled exclusively by hands - Slotted screws were not a problem and even necessary for precision tightening of fragile glass of illuminator!
I like to imagine the Canada Arm on the shuttle was held together with Robertson screws 🔩
8:06 The globe instrument is awesome, never seen that before.

@@dirkdiggler1242 Can't tell if being sarcastic
or just plain stupid
In Black Ops Zombies map Ascension, it's on the control panel of the lunar landers
Every Soviet/Russian manned spacecraft had those until 2002. Modern ones use maps on computer screens to preform the same function.
There's actually a whole graveyard of used Soyuz capsules near one of the hangars at Baikonur.
I’m sure. I wonder if they’d sell me one.
And there are also 3 Buran shuttles rotting in hangars
Даниил Архангельский That is very sad and yet all too true. While they were heavily influenced by our space shuttle in many respects, the Buran was still an impressive Soviet achievement with many of its own unique aspects and even speaking as an American it is very painful to see so much of the Soviet space program relics simply left to rot when they should at the very least be preserved in museums for future generations to enjoy and learn about - mere photos simply do not carry the same emotional impact as an actual spacecraft standing before you.
HO LAM YIU I somehow highly doubt they’d sell you that, and seeing as they’ve got valuable equipment with various metals etc, I don’t think they’d want to.
HO LAM YIU They’ve got traces of toxic materials, valuable metals, valuable equipment. They shouldn’t sell them, if they get rid of them at all, it’ll be to a museum.
I live ten minutes from this museum. It's one of my favorite places to spend time. We have a membership and bring our kids there once or twice a week. This was awesome to watch!
shameless self dox going on here XD
Will be chatting live during premier for those who want to ask questions.
Did you see my comment on the last video it's a idea for a video
Scott Manley no words can describe how much I love watching your videos! You have been my main inspiration for KSP and starting my UA-cam channel! Thanks so much for being awesome!!!
Grab yourself Cmdr Chris Hadfield (CSA), he should be able to explain almost all the hardware and instruments of the capsule. Would be even more awesome with some co-host, like Fraser Cane, Tim Dodd or so.
4:15 I missed the live chat but would you mind explaining " sensors would detect they were close the ground "... radar? utilizing Doppler effect?.. my interest is piqued, Sir.
@@densealloy It's based on gamma radiation, which is also why the instructions on the capsule advise you to not stand in front of the heatshield while helping the crew get out... I don't know how gamma ray backscatter detection works exactly, but it's got an isotope such as Cobalt-60 producing high energy gamma rays that, once it's close enough, illuminate the ground and what gets scattered back triggers the soft landing rockets and releases the parachute.
As an engineer, this made me tear up a bit with pride and excitement, and I'm not even Russian. Then it made me think of flat earthers. Thanks for the video, great work as always.
eluadyl me too but I didn’t cry lol.
A Heinlein quote comes to mind: "Narby had no particular respect for engineers, largely because he had no particular talent for engineering."
the earth is flat! this is a disney fake!
When I try to do music or a sport or something, really start to learn what's involved, I get more and more respect for the people who do it well.

Scott, If you'd like to spend more time with Soyuz, try to get to Moscow Space Museum, there are a lot of cool Soviet space stuff there! I think, you would like to see them!
And by the way, I've managed to get inside one of Soyuz modules while being schoolar on my tour to "Energia" factory in Korolov, Moscow region (yeap, THAT one factory). I remember the descend module being extremely narrow, but still cozy somehow... And a cosmonaut seat felt like a place to be, despite a bit unusual pose. It might look not so stylish, but cockpit ergonomic was tuned to the best. It was an experience of a lifetime, man
Hi Yaroslav! I am an astronautics buff from Radebeul, Germany. Question: Why has Roscosmos passed the chance to construct a radically more modern version of Soyuz? (I've seen some designs on their web page - but until now all projects have failed to materialize. When Space X takes over taxi service to the ISS in 2019 - I am afraid the Soyuz will not survive for long...)
@@11moonshot actually, Roskosmos actually IS working on a new spaceship now, and there were a lot of projects in the past indeed. They even speak about some solid dates of first tests as far as I know. Will they achieve them is another matter, but some work is in progress, as far as I know.
I'm sure (and heart some rumors) that nobody in Roskosmos took Space X project for serious until its first successes. As for me, I'm deeply worried about it, because it would be dumb AF for people, who sent Gagarin to space, to be kicked out of the business because of rusty way of thoughts...
Anyway, man, I'm just an ordinary internet nerd, rumors are all that I can operate, and if you wanna some official info, you are to dig through Roskosmos official press releases.
And I would like to see what will they come up with.
I was there
Roskosmos will always be around. Russians will refuse to fly with Space-X capsule (which got tested today btw)
@@11moonshot Because they don't need a new spaceship. They don't have where to use it. For ISS they can use old Soyuz. The Moon program is frozen. And even they still can't finish any new rocket, that can carry larges spaceship than the Soyuz. But they need to show the picture, that they do something(it's the political stuff)
Last year, I had the opportunity to see the descend module of Soyuz TM-19 that carried two cosmonauts to MIR and three back home. It is displayed in the space museum in Speyer, Germany. I found it crazy to imagine three people inside that tiny space falling back to earth. Also the marks on the heat-shield from reentry and touchdown are really frightening.
(Btw, the museum also also exhibits a Buran vehicle which was used for aerodynamic tests, the heat shield is fully installed, though)
Apparently they also have a Concord _and_ a Tu-144 on display you can go inside, too.
@@johnbrown9181 Those are in Sinsheim a few kilometers away. The two museums belong together, though.
That sounds like a cool experience, must've been neat to see up close!
I saw one of these in the museum in Moscow in the late 80s when it was still the USSR. It was the Soyuz-Gemini capsules fastened together hanging 3 or 4 meters in the air. Next to it, on the floor was a Soyuz capsule. Comparing the two pieces of equipment was interesting. Some of the restraining straps inside the Soyuz were leather and canvas. All of the hardware and fittings on the Soyuz looked like they were very crudely made and had a 'village blacksmith' look to them. My first impression was "Why are they showing these two spacecraft next to each other?", as it was plain to see the US Gemini capsule was in a different level of refinement. Still you have to give the Russians or Soviets for their accomplishments.
I'm obviously way behind on Scott's content but this was fantastic! I could watch this stuff for hours and not get bored, thank you very much Scott for sharing with us!
Fascinating! Many thanks to Scott, and to the Chabot Space & Science Center for allowing Scott to get so up close and personal with the interior.
I love watching tech from yesteryears to see how they did things and how far we've come. Speaking of, you should do a video on the V2 rocket. The granddaddy of space rockets.
Thanks for the down to earth tour of the Soyuz capsule, Scott! Very informative!
I’m excited by your rapid uploads because this is one of my favorite channels!
The 'Globus' navigation system is the most amazing piece of engineering I've ever seen.

Huge balls. The men and women flying in these. HUGE BALLS.
In soviet Russia, men WITH huge balls fly IN tiny balls.
They are usually newer than this one
Modern Cosmonauts are bigger too.
*sigh*
Absolutely loved this clip! Thank you!
Amazing piece of history and space exploration. Thank you for sharing with us Scott.
early soviet spacecraft are fascinating with the way everything was analogue and yet they managed to accomplish quite a lot in orbit
Soyuz 40 a 7K-T craft and the last of its kind and the last to dock with the Salyut 6 space station, is on display at the National Military Museum in Bucharest in Romania. It's tucked away in the aviation hangar display, still in its charred state after re-entry and complete with its parachute. It is there because on it flew the only Romanian cosmonaut who has been in space, Dumitru Dediu. The old guy who looks after the aviation hangar like a curator and some other parts of the museum is a really cool old eccentric, with lots of stories. In Romanian the museum is called Muzeul Militar National, pretty central in the city and easy to get to on the 85 tramline, has a stop right in front of it basically and 10 lei to get in, about 2 Euro, great little museum.
Why did I only just discover this video? This has got to be one of the most facinating and interesting I've ever seen on UA-cam. Great work, Scott.... good work on the cyrillic too! :)
9:47 the gauge with temperature has "liquid" caption and the second one has pressure in mmHg. The electrical panel on the side has ЗАР. 40A, which seems like заряд, "charge" and НАГР. 80А, which is нагрев, "heating"
НАГР for "нагрузка" - load
May be charging current? Because charge should be in Ah or Wh.
Fantastic! Thanks to you we get to see some history that we otherwise would not be able to see! And yea, would love to see a detailed description of all the systems too.
This was fun, hope you get to do more Inside the capsule tours!
At the Powerhouse Museum here in Sydney we have the engine from Goddard’s rocket, a Saturn V engine, full size replicas of an early Soyuz and Lunokhod-2, real cosmonaut launch suits from Soyuz TM10, their space toilet, unopened food packs from the soviet era, soviet era cosmonaut electric shaver, survival kits for after landing. It is these things that actually flew to space during the cold war that are most fascinating. I have to admit though, it is the Goddard engine that most gives me goosebumps, seeing the way it was handmade. I believe it is the second or third engine he made and flew. I am imagining how you must feel beside that early Soyuz. It would be pure magic. Lucky you.
Hi Scott, I also got to see the Soyuz at the Leicester National Space Centre while I was visiting the UK this past summer. They have a full Soyuz including the orbital and service modules too.
Very cool exhibit and a fantastic tour!
That was incredible, what an amazing opportunity to get hands-on with with an originator of our current space efforts.
Scott this guy was intimidated by you manliness & knowledge. Great video.
Love this! More of those types of shows would be awesome!

The best video on Soyuz ever. Congrats!
my main problem with premiere is that the comments from before the video was released are mixed with the ones from afterwards
Sooo...you are annoyed that you can't be first? :D

My main problem with premiere is that it doesn't save "watched" status for me.
how can you comment on something thats not releast yet ?

Thanks for this video! It was awesome to be able to directly compare this early model to the TMA-03M capsule in the ESA/ESTEC Museum!
I was diying for you to get inside! And you did a fantastic job. Thx 😃
Wow, what an opportunity!
Thanks a lot for sharing 🤩
More this. Amazing footage. I may have misunderstood the nature of some of those controls, but given how cramped the capsule is, it's a little alarming that none of the switches appear to be caged.
Reading, convering Cyrillic alphabet, translating all while reading upside down...truly impressive
I did plenty of research ahead of time on what to expect.
One strange thing I love about space race era equipments is that they can’t be replicated easily. The infamous statement that we cannot go to the moon again reflected the artisanal nature of the space race. Scientists, physicists, engineers and workers were very hands on. Theories and implementation can differ greatly, requiring improvements that were done through not just expertise but also experience. Many parts and bits were not being fully documented. That gives the entire project a vintage feel, in a handmade sense. It is something that can only exist within that period social economic condition.
This is fantastic! Would love to see more videos like this.
I don't speak a word of Russian but to hear you clunkily translate what you can read to English is absolutely beautiful! I absolutely love being able to see/hear a person's thought process, not sure why lol
+Luke Freeman Because you're a voyeur with psychopathic tendencies?

Great video Scott!
Despite i live in country where soyuzes fly, i never knew that parachute located on side.
I everytime thought that it located in hatch between command module and orbital module, thank you very much scott for information, now im gonna make model of Soyuz spacecraft for KSP
Thanks Scott. This is one of your most interesting recent videos. If you find learning the Cyrillic alphabet difficult, you'll be amused to know that, after spending time learning to read and speak Russian, it's actually quite difficult to read text in our Latin characters when you first return to it. ;-D That's quite disorienting.
They are perfect in every way shape and form
Very interesting! Those panels and displays and that strange periscope's display are very strange and so beutiful and the same time! :D And as always happen with your vids, now I'm want play Kerbal so much lol! Thank you Scott for another great video! You are the man! :D
scott manley: the capsule is limited by the size of the rocket.

Crazy awesome! Thanks Scott!
I visited Moscow in May/June and went to space museum. I saw Soyuz, Mir replica, Vostok, space suits....and many many more cool things there. Space museum was my favorite part of Moscow visit.
so much fun to watch this vid....thank you!
Great video Scott! Btw, CuriousMarc has very recently uploaded a video where he takes apart this "globus" flight computer / orbit predictor inside the Soyuz. You should give it a watch, it is fascinating!
Mad props on cyrillic reading skills.
Had a lot of fun exploring 7K-L1 while studying at University. The one that actually flew around the moon. It looked basically the same)
So cool! As someone who is interested in all things Soviet, this is fascinating for me. What a fascinating relic of the Cold War, and it’s still in amazing shape for something that hasn’t been used in over 50 years.
This was really informative and really cool to see and learn about an early version of a soyuze capsule, wonder if its possible to get the schematics and build an exact replica, but fresh paint and all and allow people to sit in it, see what its like inside while it sits next to the real thing
Scott! Just tripping out how cool you found that... 🚀🏄♀️🏎⚜️
Thanks for this really cool insight!!!
Nice video. Its quite shocking the lack of history/documentation about this important space vehicle.
Thanks for posting this. I gotta get to this museum as not that far away from me.
Thanks Scott, very interesting !
Scott, some stunning history here! Being able to function in the hostile environment of LEO in such a cramped contraption is a testament to the Right Stuff the Cosmonauts had.
1.7K viewers in 8 mins? Woaaaah!! Awesooome scott manley.
I've been doing amateur space-technical-Russian for about 20 years and you're already way way way ahead of me... :)
My father got to explore one of these back then in the 1990's he was in the Military and was sent to a City in kazachstan where they had to meet the cosmomauts coming back from space. They stayed in a special Military hotel in the court of it was a old soyuz capsule model 7k-t. He looked around it and watched inside of it there were to seats in there and the capsule had a couple of burning Tricks from the reentry. Yeah pretty cool
Wow awesome this spacecraft is older than me! Very interesting and assertive and pragmatic machine!
Dear Museum: Please give Scott a chance to sit in this capusle and take a look into the instruments. This will be great advertising for your place and a lot more peolpe will have a chance to learn sth. from the not functioning equipment. For your audience nothing will change. Put a TV screen in front of the capusle, that shows Scott's video...
Scott one item i missed, the Электро́ника МК-52 ' Elektronika MK-52' programmable calculator was one of the backup systems used in the Soyuz.
Those things are easy to get on ebay, got the other variants as well.
A huge problem with the original Soyuz capsule design was fitting of the folded parachute into that space shown in the video. After the Soyuz 1 tragedy, they had to redesign it, probably including the parachute design, so a parachute could properly fit and deploy correctly.
"Look at the screws on that..." XD love you Scott
Wow, that is all just amazing to look at; especially when you consider that it's a 1960's design. The soviets always liked to over build things too.
очень хорошо! Nicely done. Very cool tour.

Same guys that got an Apollo AGC up and running for the 50th anniversary.
They recently did both Soyuz clock modules and are now doing the Orbit module.
I love looking at the interiors of old spacecraft.
One of the best videos on this channel. Priceless.
- This craft (rather its exhibition) is apparently "closed off" by the museum - why? Is it newly acquired, thus not yet ready for public display?
- Are the museum/curator(s) aware of the comment in this comment area by Ilya Dorokhov, supplying vital details regarding the craft?
The craft is on display, but there's a perspex window covering the hatch which I got them to temporarily remove so I could stick cameras inside.
@@scottmanley Thank you. Oddly, it's not mentioned on wikipedia page's list of attractions. I also didn't find it on chabotspace.org but now I see that it's under the exhibit "Going The Distance: Our Reach Into Space" at their site
Very honest re:- the doubts about its use! full marks for that..and respect!!
What else do you expect, so many of them have flown over time that nobody knows if this one really did. In some old Soviet archives, there should be a list.
Wow, normally in space people underestimate the size of spacecraft but in this case it’s incredible how small it is
Thanks Scott, way cool!
8:18 4 years later, the channel CuriousMarc got their hands on one and took it apart to fix it! They've also shown two different Soyuz clocks, and work on tons of Apollo gear as well... highly recommended to anyone who wants more detail on the tech in these capsules :)
Thanks Scott, you can see almost every aspect of the systems in this ship, you have nailed a great and informative video here! I admit I would love to see the heat shield detached, maybe one day in the future an owner of this Soyuz may do so! I was born 8 days before Gagarin's Vostock flight. I was very aware of the early Soyus flights, I would be happy to fly in any model of Soyuz and have always felt that way. However as I post this the single commander/pilot and 2 'board operator' Soyuz SM models are in service, so imagine getting a flight on one and taking a pretty, clever date, wouldn't that be nice and you could do and film all sorts of normal important earth gravity things as experiments with the technical challenge of microgravity while taking looks out the window at the Earth... or am I just silly?
I cannot believe a slotted head screw flew into space.
Old slotted screws were much more resilient than the modern versions. Hardware from the 40's and 50's was surprisingly robust.
Probably made without planned obsolescence in mind
AMEN to that!
@@christheother9088 the slotted screws on soviet gear tend to be soft as fuck and get dickered when you take a modern screwdriver to them. Maybe the soyuz got better stuff but you never know.
The phylips screws where to «American» for the USSR at the time, torks ones where to new and Robertson ones are pretty rare outside Canada. This leave the good old slotted ones.
Great video !!!!
That was amazing. More please?

Oh! I sat in that about thousand times in Georgia, we were playing in the yard it stood at the school, didn't remember that until I saw this video! Have to check if the spacecraft and module are still here...
The pictures I see from Georgia showed the hatch was closed. Would love to know more.
Interesting stuff. Pretty hard to get the chance to take a peek inside something like that. Would be awesome if they'd let you get a peek inside an Apollo capsule.
Ironically, the remaining Apollo spacecraft are almost completely stripped of their interiors--originally, they were stripped of interior equipment to serve as spares for the rest of the program; after the end of the Apollo flights in '75, NASA stripped the instrument panels of a hell of a lot of switches and other items that matched hardware used on the Shuttle. Likewise, the Shuttle cockpits were stripped of most of their switches and other such things before being put on display, so that the hardware could be reused on Orion, and Gemini cockpits were stripped of parts that could be reused on Apollo before they were turned into museum pieces, too. It's entirely plausible that the first manned spacecraft to land on Mars will have some switches and circuit breakers that flew on Gemini 3...
Live stream from the inside with extra experts! YES!
Very good video!!!!
Awesome video
Sir, Thanks for very long before asking question to gate this knowledge .
very, very nice, big thanks!
Got to see a lot of cool stuff like this my first trip to Russia in the Museum of Cosmonautics. Although I am not claustrophobic, I couldn't stand spending a lot of time cooped up in a capsule or space station.
