 1998-047A


The EO-26 crew of Gennadiy Padalka (callsign Al'tair) and Sergey Avdeev were launched on Soyuz TM-28 (11F732 No 77) in Aug 1998. Former national security adviser Yuriy Baturin also was on the crew as cosmonaut-researcher. Baturin, once a test pilot, was chairman of the Defense Council until Aug 1997.

Launch mass of Soyuz was 7000 kg. It used a GPS system for the first time.

Flight 2 was a docking port switch in Feb 1999, with Padalka and Avdeev aboard.

Flight 3 was return to Earth, with Padalka and Bella. The Phantom dosimeter carried up on Progress M-34 was probably returned on this flight.
