The 1975 mission marked the first time manned spacecraft of two nations met in space. On the left is the Apollo command and service module. This spacecraft was used as a test vehicle during the Apollo program and was restored for display here. In the center is a docking module that served as a backup for the docking module used during the mission. One the right is the green Soyuz spacecraft, which includes a spherical orbital module, a bell-shaped landing module, and a cylindrical service module. The Soyuz displayed here is a model built by the Energia Scientific Production Assocaition, the company still manufactures Soyuz flight vehicles." - Quote from Plaque located at the National Air and Space Museum.
