Mission highlights

This was the 30th expedition to Mir. An ESA astronaut from Germany was included on the mission.

Soyuz TM-25 is a Russian spacecraft that was launched to carry astronauts and supplies to Mir station. It was launched by a Soyuz-U rocket from Baykonur cosmodrome at 14:09 UT to ferry three cosmonauts for a 162-day stay at the station; it docked with the station at 15:51 UT on 12 February 97. Within meters of automatic approach to the station, a slight misalignment was noted, and the commander of the module had to dock it by manual steering.

gollark: But what if you want to be able to SSH into your ceiling lamps, ħmmmmm?

gollark: You could use an ESP32 thingy, yes.

gollark: I don't know. They might. Do not trust companies to keep running the backend without a subscription payment.

gollark: Plus it won't randomly break when Philips inevitably discontinues stuff.

gollark: THINK OF THE PROGRAMMERS who have to deal with random clock jumps and stuff (although sane applications will use UTC internally, I think Windows actually is stupid and sets the clock to *local time*, thus problems).
