SALYUT 7

It was one of the most daring missions in the history of space exploration. At the height of the Cold War in 1985, an unmanned Soviet space station spun out of control. With the U. S. getting ready to capture it with the Space Shuttle, Soviet astronauts raced into space to salvage it. This extraordinary film moves between the unfolding drama playing out in Earth and the cascading events in space.
