Soyuz TM-2

Soyuz TM-2 was a crewed spaceflight to the Soviet space station Mir, which was uncrewed at the time.

The crew of the long duration expedition, Mir EO-2, who were launched by TM-2 consisted of Soviet cosmonauts Yuri Romanenko and Aleksandr Laveykin.

On April 5 the EO-2 crew retreated to the Soyuz TM-2 spacecraft so that they could escape in the event the module got out of control.

About 200 m out, the docking system lost its lock on Mir's aft port antenna.

The cosmonauts watched from within Soyuz TM-2 as the Kvant/ FSM combination passed within 10 m of the station.
