Soyuz TM-34 was a Russian Soyuz TM passenger transportation craft that was launched by a Soyuz-U rocket from Baikonur at 06:26 UT on 25 April 2002.

It carried two cosmonauts and a South African tourist, Mark Shuttleworth, to the International Space Station (ISS).

Shuttleworth performed some biology experiments, as he carried a live rat and sheep stem cells.

Soyuz TM-34 was the final flight of the Soyuz-TM variant, due to its replacement by the upgraded Soyuz-TMA.
