Soyuz Missions

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) flew the first piloted Soyuz mission in 1967. Over the next three decades more than 70 Soyuz spacecraft were used to send cosmonauts into space. One of these spacecraft is shown here, along with some of the cosmonauts who have flown on Soyuz missions.
