Biography of the Savin cosmonaut

Born on March 7 years in the village of Berezkin of the Orichevsky district of the Kirov region. In the year he graduated from 10th grades of the school in the village of Tarasov, Orichevsky district, in the year - the Perm College of Railway Transport. In March-October, he worked on the Sverdlovsk railway by the foreman of the brigade for the repair of artificial structures of the 6th distance of the track service.

In the army since October. He served in the railway troops by a soldier of the topographic service of the GO topographic detachment, the city of Sarapul, Udmurtia and the assistant chief of the Civil Defense of the Separate Railway Battalion Sverdlovsk Region. He took part in the construction of the Ivdel - Privoy railway. In September, senior sergeant V. Savin was dismissed.

In the year he graduated from the Optical and Mechanical Department of the Moscow Institute of Engineers of Geodesy, aerial photography and cartography. Koroleva: the technician-engineer-an engineer-, a senior engineer-participated in the development of optical devices for lunar spacecraft, orbital stations and Soyuz spacecraft. I was engaged in the development of on -board documentation.

In the year in absentia he graduated from graduate school of the Moscow Institute of Engineers of Geodesy, aerial photography and cartography. In the Cosmonauts detachment from December to February. He made 3 space flights with a total length of the day 17 hours 38 minutes, completed 1 exit to the outer space lasting 5 hours. In January - May, the group as part of the group was prepared for the space flight on the Soyuz TS spacecraft.

In September, he began preparations for the flight under the program of the fifth main expedition to the Salyut-6 station as a bortinger of a duplicate crew. In October-November of the year, directed preparations for the second test flight on the Soyuz T-3 ship as a bortinger of a duplicate crew were carried out. In December, he resumed preparations for the flight under the program of the fifth main expedition to the Salyut-6 station as a bartinzhener of a duplicate crew.

In February, the duplicate crew was appointed main. Kovalenka made a space flight lasting 74 days 17 hours 37 minutes. It was the fifth main expedition to the Salyut-6 orbital station. During his stay at the Cosmonauts station, two visits expeditions received-on the Ships of Soyuz with the Soviet-Mongol crew and Soyuz with the Soviet-Romanian crew. For the successful implementation of a long space flight on the orbital research complex “Salyut-6”-“Soyuz” and at the same time the courage and heroism by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR of the year of the year of the Savani, Viktor Petrovich, was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union with the award of the Order of Lenin and the Hooper of Golden Star.

In December-August, there was direct preparation for flight under the program of the second expedition to visit the Salyut-7 orbital station. In September-March of the year, preparations for flight under the program of the expedition to visit the Salyut-7 orbital station were undergoing. In March-April, there was direct preparation for the flight as a sorcerer of the duplicate crew of the second main expedition to the Salyut-7 orbital station.

In May-January, preparations for flight were trained as a sorcerer and duplicate crews of the third main expedition to the Salyut-7 orbital station. In March - June, there was direct preparation under the flight program with a woman’s exit to outer space as a bortinger of a duplicate crew. In October-March, he was preparing for flight as a sidebrand of the main crew of the fourth main expedition to the Salyut-7 orbital station.

However, the unexpected happened. Since October, the Salyut-7 orbital station has been in an autonomous flight. After that, the command was filed for the reverse switch, but at the next communication session, the station no longer responded. Without adjusting the orbit by signals supplied from the ground, the station began to decline, which could lead to the orbit and the uncontrolled fall of its remains to the surface of the earth.

It was decided to send a rescue expedition to restore the station. It was decided to send a rescue expedition to the Soyuz Tu -T modified for these purposes. A system of automatic docking and the chair of the third astronaut was dismantled from the ship, visual surveillance tools for manual joints were improved, additional reserves of water, nutrition and oxygen were placed.

Dzhanibekov made a second space flight lasting day 3 hours 51 minutes. Since Salyut-7 did not respond to the commands of the field of flight management and did not transmit telemetric data, guidance on it was provided by missile defense means, which in practice proved the fundamental possibility of ensuring the close-up of the Soyuz ship to any object in space.

At a distance of meters from the station, the ship caught up with the station, after which V. Dzhanibekov carried out a docking manual.Even at the approach, the astronauts found that the solar batteries of the stations were not deployed to the sun, which indicated the inoperability of the battery orientation system and the disconnection of the entire power system of the station.

The reserves of the water remaining at the station were frozen. The first task of the astronauts was the reactivation of the power supply system and the restoration of the water supply system "spring", on which the fate of the rescue expedition depended. I had to work in difficult conditions, for security purposes in the first days, only one astronaut could work at the station, the other insured him and controlled the situation.

The temperature was so low that it had to wear warm overalls, woolen caps and mittens. On the fourth day of the flight, June 10, the astronauts deployed with the help of Soyuz engines the solar panels of the “salute” to the sun and began to charge the batteries. By the next day, five blocks of six operating units managed to charge and connect part of the electrical equipment of the station to them.

The station systems began to come to life gradually - lighting systems were connected to the charged batteries, atmospheric regeneration, orientation of solar panels, heating, and telemetry transmission. By June 14, it was possible to restore all the vital systems of the station, due to which it became possible to launch the Progress Supply ship from the land.

Over the next month, the astronauts carried out the repair and replacement of non -critical station systems. Dzhanibekov and V. Savin, an exit to outer space, lasting 5 hours, during which additional solar panels and equipment for conducting experiments in outer space were installed. Dzhanibekov and G. Grechko returned to Earth, and V. Savin continued to work at the station with V.

Vasyutin and A. At the station there was equipment for more experiments. However, due to the illness of V. Vasyutin and an unscheduled early end of the flight, its duration was less than a third of the planned majority of the work program, as well as the planned visit expedition. During illness, commander V. Savinov performed his duties. For the successful implementation of the space flight at the Salyut-7-“Soyuz” orbital research complex and the courage and heroism shown by the Decree of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR dated December 20, Viktor Petrovich, was awarded the Order of Lenin and the second medal “Golden Star”.

In September - July, he underwent direct preparations for flight as a sorcerer’s sinfunner under the program for visiting the Mir orbital station by the Syrian cosmonaut. Since November, he has been preparing for flight as a sorcerer of the main crew of the third expedition to visit the Mir orbital station. Solovyov and A. Alexandrov Bulgaria made a third cosmic flight lasting 9 days 20 hours 9 minutes.

These were the thirteenth international flight under the Intersmos program and the third expedition to visit the Mir orbital scientific station, at which the third main expedition worked at that time - V. Titov and M. For the first time, the astronaut from Bulgaria visited the orbital station. In February - May - the rector of the Moscow Institute of Geodesy Engineers, Aerial Photo and Cartography since March - Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography.

In the year he graduated from the diplomatic academy. Since June - President of the Moscow State University of Geodesy and Cartography. The People’s Deputy of the USSR in the years. Member of the Union of Writers of the Russian Federation. The Cosmonaut Pilot of the USSR Cosmonaut of the 1st grade member of the Russian Academy of Sciences Candidate of Technical Sciences Major of the reserve lives in Moscow.

The hero of the Mongolian People’s Republic was awarded the Russian orders “For Merit to the Fatherland” 1st laureate of the State Prize of the Russian Federation awarded the gold medal named after K. Tsiolkovo Academy of Sciences of the USSR, for the successful implementation of a scientific research program during a long flight at the Salyut-7 orbital station.
