Descripción : Manned spaceflight to the Salyut 3 space station. The mission was part of the Soviet Union`s Almaz program to evaluate the military applications of human spaceflight.
The mission proved to be the only one for Salyut 3 as Soyuz 15 failed to dock with the station in August and the station was de-orbited January 1975. With the American Skylab missions now complete, the flight marked the start of the monopoly of manned space activities by the Soviets until the 1981 launch of STS 1, the first space shuttle flight, save for the joint Apollo-Soyuz flight of 1975
