Soyuz 38 (Soyuz Programme) Black Coffee Mug

Soyuz 38 (Soyuz Programme) The Soyuz 38 was a mission launched as part of the Soviet Union's manned spaceflight program, the Soyuz Programme. This particular flight occurred on April 16, 1974, and it carried cosmonauts Pyotr Klimuk and Vitaly Sevastyanov to the Salyut 3 space station for a research mission that lasted until July 28, 1974. The Soyuz Programme, initiated in 1966, has been instrumental in carrying astronauts and cosmonauts to and from orbiting spacecraft and the International Space Station (ISS). The Soyuz spacecraft, a workhorse of human spaceflight, continues to serve as a reliable means of transport for crewed missions today.
