DOCKED SALYUT TO SOYUZ MODEL

Large model of docked Salyut 6-Soyuz 26, 21 inches long, with three 8 x 3 inch solar panels, body in green and white with white and red lettering. On wood base, with engraved plaque reading: "ОРБИТАЛЬНАЯ КОСМИЧЕСКАЯ СТАНЦИЯ 'САЛЮТ 6 - СОЮЗ' 11.XII.1977" [Trans: Orbital Space Station. 'Salyut 6 - Soyuz' 11.XII.1977].

Salyut 6 was the Soviet space station, prior to Mir, and was in operation for almost five years. Soyuz 26 took the first long-duration crew to Salyut. A problem with the docking hatch had prevented Soyuz 25 from connecting successfully. An attractive, highly detailed model.
