Salyut 5 at 50: Soviet station sickened and nearly drowned crews

The Soviet Union launched the final crewed Almaz station, Salyut 5, on June 22, 1976. Soyuz 21 crew Boris Volynov and Vitaly Zholobov suffered sensory deprivation. A third mission failed to dock and nearly crashed into water. The crewed program was canceled after Salyut 5.
