Here is Salyut 6, a Soviet space station launched on September 29, 1977 and used until 1982.
Although similar in appearance to the previous Salyut stations, it had several innovations, including a second docking port allowing either the refueling of food and fuel by a Progress cargo ship, or the visit of a second crew.
It is moored here at Soyuz 29 and 30.

Lovely project - had no idea that rockets capable of launching a satellite could be as small as the Japanese one indicates. Learning something everyday.

Kind regards, Leif

Thank you very much, Leif.
Glad to see you.

Named Salyut 3 to make it look like a civilian scientific orbital station of the Salyut series, it is in fact the military station Almaz 2, operational from June 25, 1974 to January 24, 1975. It is moored here at Soyuz 14.
It was armed with a 23mm self-defense cannon that was tested in orbit.

It is very fine steel needle for insect (OOO)size). Equipment for entomology.

The German-Brazilian VSB30 sounding rocket replaces the British Skylark 7 from 2005 for the Texus program ("Technologische Experimente unter Schwerelosigkeit", microgravity technology experiments).
Model reduced from 1/96 to 1/220 which is very tiny.
