MIR Space Station

MOSCOW � MARCH 19: A Buran spacecraft is seen in a hangar, on March 19, 1992, in Moscow, Russia. The Buran (Russian for Snowstorm), influenced by the American Space Shuttle design, completed one unmanned spaceflight in 1988. It was later destroyed by a hangar collapse in 2002. The Buran spacecraft made its first flight on November 15, 1988 from Baikonur Cosmodrome site in Kazakhstan. On March 17, 1992, a Soyuz TM-14 spacecraft left the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan and docked at the Kvant rear port of the MIR space station on March 19, returning to earth after almost 8 days in space, on March 25, 1992. The MIR-92 mission carried German astronaut Klaus Dietrich Flade, Russian cosmonauts Aleksandr Viktorenko and Aleksandr Kaleri. Flade realized gravity experiments aboard the MIR space station. The MIR (Russian word for Peace, World), was a space station operated by the Soviet Union, and later by the Russian Confederation. It was built between 1986 and 1996 and operated for fifteen years until March 23, 2001. It holds the record for the longest continuous presence in space, eight days short of ten years. In its fifteen year lifespan it was occupied for a total of twelve and a half years. The station was made accessible for astronauts and cosmonauts from thirteen different nations.
