Soyuz 11 (Russian: Союз 11 Union 11) was the first and only manned mission to board the world’s first space station Salyut 1 (Soyuz 10 had soft-docked but had not been able to enter due to latching issues). The mission arrived at the space station on 7 June 1971 and departed on 30 June. The mission ended in disaster when the crew capsule depressurised during preparations for reentry killing the three-man crew.
