Mission highlights

Michel Tognini, passenger aboard Soyuz- TM 15, was the third Frenchman to visit a space station. He conducted ten experiments using 300 kg of equipment delivered by Progress-M flights. Tognini spent 2 weeks in space as part of ongoing space cooperation between Russia and France.

gollark: No.

gollark: Besides, it assumes CraftOS's existence when it TLCOs it to... remove CraftOS, partly.

gollark: no u.

gollark: You would need a craftOS partial compatibility layer.

gollark: But potatOS needs it.
