[edit] Mission highlights

5th expedition to Salyut 7. Visited by 6th and 7th expeditions.

The three-person Mayak crew entered the darkened Salyut 7 station carrying flashlights. The cosmonauts commented on the burnt-metal odor of the drogue docking unit. By February 17, Salyut 7 was fully reactivated, and the cosmonauts had settled into a routine. Physician Oleg Atkov did household chores and monitored his own health and that of his colleagues, who conducted experiments.

During the previous year a fuel line on the station had ruptured. Kizim and Solovyov carried out three EVAs to try and fix the problem during the mission.
