The℗ℓchapters shed light on the space program that was at that time a prime outlet for℗ℓthe Soviet Union's aims at becoming a world power. Interkosmos℗ℓwas a highly publicized Russian space program℗ℓthat rapidly became a significant propaganda tool for the Soviet℗ℓUnion in the waning years of communism. Billed as an international℗ℓℓ́ℓresearch-cosmonautℓ́ℓ imperative, it was also a high-profile means of℗ℓdisplaying solidarity with the nine participating Eastern bloc countries.℗ℓThose countries contributed pilots who were trained in Moscow for℗ℓweek-long ℓ́ℓguestℓ́ℓ missions on orbiting Salyut stations. They did a little℗ℓsubsidiary science and were permitted only the most basic mechanical℗ℓmaneuvers. In this enthralling new book, and following extensive international℗ℓresearch, the authors fully explore the background, accomplishments℗ℓand political legacy of the Interkosmos program. Through personal and℗ℓoften highly revealing interviews with many of the participants they℗ℓrelate the very human story behind this extraordinary but controversial℗ℓspace venture. 000752864 650_0 $$aAstronautics$$xHistory. 000752864 650_0 $$aHistory. 000752864 650_0 $$aSpace sciences. 000752864 650_0 $$aAstronomy. 000752864 650_0 $$aAerospace engineering. 000752864 650_0 $$aAstronautics. 000752864 7001_ $$aVis, Bert,$$eauthor. 000752864 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319241616 000752864 830_0 $$aSpringer-Praxis books in space exploration. 000752864 852__ $$bebk 000752864 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-24163-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000752864 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:752864$$pGLOBAL_SET 000752864 980__ $$aEBOOK 000752864 980__ $$aBIB 000752864 982__ $$aEbook 000752864 983__ $$aOnline 000752864 994__ $$a92$$bISE
