Soyuz in the Smithsonian

Description

Apollo-Soyuz was a joint American and Soviet space mission in July 1975. Three American astronauts flew in the Apollo spacecraft, and two Soviet cosmonauts flew in the Soyuz spacecraft. Their capsules met in orbit, and the men shook hands in space, ending the Space Race on friendly terms. As it has been in use in 1967, Soyuz (Union) is the oldest type of spacecraft still in active service. A replica of the Soyuz spacecraft used in Apollo-Soyuz is on display at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum in Washington DC.
