Apollo-Soyuz Test Project docking, 1975. Footage of the docking of the two spacecraft involved in the joint US-Soviet Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP). The ASTP mission took place from 15-24 July 1975. A Russian Soyuz and American Apollo spacecraft docked in orbit on 17 July 1975 to test a jointly-designed international docking mechanism. The clip first shows the Apollo spacecraft, then the Soyuz spacecraft, and then the Apollo spacecraft again. The moment of docking (0:15) is seen from the Apollo spacecraft with the Soyuz spacecraft visible. The two mission commanders, Thomas P. Stafford for the USA (at right) and Alexey Leonov for the USSR (at left), are seen shaking hands through the docking connection. | |
