 .... But
it now appears that cosmonaut Boris
Volynov acted as back-up to Pavel
Popovich, the commander of Soyuz
14. Under the original Soviet system,
Volynov should then have flown as
commander of Soyuz 15. Instead, a
new cosmonaut, Gennady Sarafanov,
flew the mission. Soyuz 14 and 15
were both flown in connection with
the military Salyut 3.
Volynov subsequently turned up
as commander of ...

 ...MANNED SPACECRAFT believed to be at least a component of an elementary orbital space station k was launched by the Soviet Union on April 19.
Almost four days later, on April 22, another spacecraft,
Soyuz 10, carried three men up to join it.
A brief Soviet announcement issued on April 19 stated
that the USSR had "launched an orbital scientific station,
Salyut, on April 19. The station was laun...

Salyut flights date back to April
1971, when the first station was placed
in orbit. It was the target for Soyuz
10, although this crew did not enter
the station, and for Soyuz 11, whose
threes-mail crew spent more than 22
days inside the cylindrical vehicle.
Salyut 2, launched in April 1973, was
never manned. Salyut 3, sent up more
than a year later, accommodated...

 ... RUSSIA continued to observe official silence aboutthe exact purpose of the Soyuz 3 flight, all the indica-tions are that the main purpose of the mission (the
first Soviet manned flight since that of Soyuz 1 in April last
year) was the development of techniques for use, at least
initially, with manned space stations.
Soyuz 3 was launched from the space centre at Baykonour at

1975 but had been abandoned as a
result of scheduling and training
problems. Observers suggest that the
