Leonov and Stafford became lasting friends. Leonov was godfather to Stafford's children and Stafford delivered a eulogy at Leonov's funeral in 2019.

This mission was amazing, for so many reasons. I think Americans and Russians actually have a lot in common: we're both just crazy enough to make a mission like this possible.

According to Leonov, there were 3 languages spoke on ASTP. Russian, English, and Stafford's Oklahomski.

The flight that ultimately led to cooperation on Mir and ISS.

Arthur C Clarke, when writing 2010: The Year We Make Contact, named the Russian spaceship "Leonov." When asked about the name of the ship, Alexi said "it will be a good ship." Leonov was quite a character. 😊

It was a fascinating period, and even more fun to look back on it now in this way.

This was, perhaps, the first "international space station", even if it only lasted a couple of days.

It may be fantasy, but how great would it be if the US, Russian, China, India et al, could cooperate on a unified mission to Mars. It's going to take an enormous amount of resources. The ISS is an example of what can be done when we're willing to put the future of mankind ahead of politics.

This brought a tear to my eye

This latter day documentary is a little bit cheesy, but speaking as someone who was a child when this happened, it was huge. I didn't know all the politics, but our parents told us as small schoolchildren that this was a great day: people who had been and still were adversaries on earth could nevertheless cooperate in a shared mission of discovery, for the sake of science and the advancement of all humanity with regard to economic theory (surely, because it was expensive for both countries). I am an American but love the name of Alexei Leonov, not just for his command of the Soviet half of the Test Project, but by his later and lasting commitment to world peace, and international friendship. What American of my generation cannot but admire the counterparts on the Russian side who shook our hands in outer space. That legacy lives on in ISS, and every astronaut who leaves earth from Baikonur, in the Soyuz, to this day the most reliable human rated spacecraft ever flown. Saylut, Alexei Leonov and Deke Slayton!

i read a comment from “ a space nut “ whom admitted they’d never heard about this event until discovering it on YT. This is shocking to someone whom watched it happen as a 10 yr old in England. 👽👍

Peace through cooperation. We need more of this

I try to explain to my kids what it was like growing up during the cold war. They just don't believe me. They can't believe how BIG the world used to be. To be honest, I kinda miss the world being so big. Just once and awhile.

These guys really enjoyed each other and had fun! I don't remember this although I must've seen it and heard of it. Was a teenager and things were hectic in those years. I looked this up because of the series For All Mankind. Blows me away all the cooperation that went on with this... especially given it was cold war times.

Never even knew there was such a cooperation between the USA and USSR in spaceflight until yesterday when looking at the list of manned spaceflight Wikipedia article.

I feel ashamed i didnt know about this mission until recently. Probably one of the most important ones ever done, even though the world seem to try its best to forget about it :/ Astronaut or cosmonaut, you are all spacemen to me 👍

We should never forget this

Marvel: Avengers: endgame is- NASA and RKA: We're gonna stop you right there

How wonderful it would be if all the nations of the world contribute to development and research, not only of our planet, but in all of the universe. How wonderful it would be, it would be....

Me hace muy feliz ver a Slaton formando parte de la tripulación. Era una deuda del 'espacio' con él, se lo ganó. Se merecía integrar una misión, además de otorgarle a esta la honra que tiene que unos de los 7 originales abra la puerta a la nueva etapa en la exploración del espacio y el broche de oro del Apolo. Gloria eterna para él!

The astronauts stayed at Tripler Army Medical Center after decompressing in their customized Airstream trailer. And on the parade grounds during the festivities for the upcoming Bicentennial celebrations, the astronauts came out on their balcony and waved to us. [Self Edit] It was the 200th anniversary of The U.S. Army's Medical Corps. I remember it being the highlight of my most patriotic period to date.

That Is Amazing!

BELLEZA ABSOLUTA!!! Un mundo impensable que GRACIAS A LA BUENA VOLUNTAD DE GENTE DE BIEN, se hizo realidad!!! Ojalá sigan encontrando más puntos de contacto que de divergencia.

If anyone wants to see the Apollo CM from that mission, it's currently at the California Science Center!

Party gag after undocking might be the greatest practical joke EVER!

I'm all in on joint lunar missions and joint Mars missions.

How did this happen in the height of the Cold War and I never even knew??

Amazing achievement

hi, great video it helped me a lot with my school paper. I just have a question. Did this project really ended the cold war, or did it just contribute on the road of ending the cold war? Also, what was the effect of the Apollo-Soyuz on the ISS "project"?. Thank you allready for the video.

The fact that it's never been tried is evidence it wouldn't work. You can't force people to abandon their native language in favor of some language engineered by globalists.

There's a world of difference between _cooperating_ in space and _depending_ on another country to ferry our astronauts. Here's hoping that never happens to the United States again.
