Soyuz T-10A

 1983-F02


7K-ST spacecraft 11F732 No. 16L was prepared to deliver astronauts Titov and Strekalov to Salyut-7. The Soyuz-T spacecraft sat on top of an 11A511U Soyuz-U launch vehicle at Baikonur on 1983 Sep 26. As the countdown reached T-20s, a fire in the first stage caused an emergency abort, the first time a spaceship launch escape tower had been fired with a crew aboard. The mission would have been Soyuz T-10 if the launch had gone according to plan. The SA was reflown on the Soyuz T-15 mission in 1986.
