- July 17, 1975: In the silence of the vastness of space, the American spacecraft Apollo joined the orbit of the Russian Soyuz… The airlock hatches opened and the Commander Thomas Stafford exchanged a warm handshake with his counterpart Alexey Leonov. A challenge that was symbolic, scientific, political, ideological, but first and foremost military.
After six years of tricky collaboration, the Apollo Soyuz Test Project ended a twenty-year struggle for control of space. By collaborating, the two superpowers wanted at once to defuse the tensions linked to the Cold War and to reaffirm that they were the only ones to have mastered manned space flight.

To me the best part about Apollo/Soyuz is that Deke Slayton finally got to go up. The last Mercury 7 astronaut to go up.
Did Deke assign himself to that mission??

I like to consider myself a space nut, but the fact that I never knew about this mission is criminal. What a special message and a special group of individuals.
Where have you been, comrade?
Sad that politics and fear keep the world separated 💔
It sure is
Same here.
I remember seeing this on the news when I was a kid. I found the whole thing fascinating.
I watched it at my Grandma's.
They literally redesigned the entire docking assembly because “neither side wanted to have the female part”… did I hear that right? 🤣
Truly a wonderful mission I was proud of it and I love the “we are better together” truer words never spoken
Great video. So glad to see this footage of Thomas Stafford. I was raised about 175 miles east and 20 years after him. I listened on TH-cam about a year ago to the entire audio of communication of Apollo 10 when he was commander. His voice seems familiar to me.
I was 5 years old and remember clearly watching this
In my mom's laundry basket that was my rocket ship
It is one of the happiest memories l hold
Grew up during the space race..cooperation in space gave us all hope that the world would not blow up.
If there was one astronaut/cosmonaut that I would have liked to meet, it would have been Alexi Leonov, second choice would have been Georgy Grechko, Mike Collins would have been a third.
i have to wonder how irritated the more conservative members of the British Establishment must have been in early 1969 with the uncertainty of whether one of the first to set foot on the moon could be a bloke called Micheal Collins….🙄👍( famous founder of the iRA )
An interesting fact about Apollo Soyus, was Mercury Astronaut Deke Slayton finally got to fly into space, Slayton was grounded due to a mild heart problem around the middle of the mercury program, he stayed on at NASA as the head of the astronaut office, he got the heart problem under control and got to fly on the last manned Apollo mission.
I remember the nuclear weapon tension between the Soviet Union and the United States at that time. I was about 10 years old.
The air raid sirens were tested once per month.
When the air raid sirens sounded, students would go under a table in case the building collapsed.
That's what Boomers dealt with in grade school.
Who said the 70s was a miserable time😂 what a marvellous moment and a wonderful testament to humanity at its best. A great film of it too.
Terrible for fashion & hair styling.
I remember watching this as a nine year old during the summer of 1975.
RIP Alexei Leonov and Deke Slayton
I love Tom Stafford but he along with Gene Cernan flew the 2nd flight of the lunar module on Apollo 10. Jim McDevitt and Rusty Schweickart flew it 1st during Apollo 9.
Smiling the whole way through, it was beautiful. And how close Leonov and Stafford became, as they themselves have said they're brothers.
The symbolic act of shaking hands over the Elbe, East meeting West. "Together we are better." Truer words have never been spoken, yet once again a few of the utterly insane and spiritually demonic in high places seem hell bent on igniting WW3.
I thought I knew most of my space history. But I never knew the detail that the handshake took place in part over the Elba or the throwback to the WW2 era handshake at the same general location. Fascinating and wonderful stuff.
We are better together 💗
The very best example of human nature, resulting directly from a race to cause destruction on an apocalyptic scale. There is hope for us yet.
It annoys me at the start how the americans tried to downplay the russian acheivements in terms of "being first" and "taking the lead".
What the heck are you taking about. Any educated American historian knows that Russia had the first satellite, animal, man, woman, orbital, three man, and two man crewed space flights. Not to mention the first two space stations.
@@Dbag5000 That's exactly my point. Watch it again and listen carefully.
Soyuz having a limit of 1300km altitude? More like 360km, if even that high
What is facinating and a message to governments and politicians everywhere - during the middle of the cold war, US and Soviet scientists, engineers, astronauts and cosmonauts put differences aside to complete this mission!
The 1968 movie Marooned depicts a Soviet cosmonaut assisting in the rescue of three Apollo astronauts - not so far fetched considering ASTP. Even to this day, despite the Russian invasion of Ukraine - US and Russian scientists, engineers and astronauts/cosmonauts continue to work together in space.
NASA saved the Russian space program. In fact, the U.S. taxpayers continue to finance the Russian program. Without America, the Russian program would fail.
That's freaking wild at a time when they were dealing with the Cold war. They were able to find some way to work together to get to space that's pretty cool! I just wish one day all these people who are in power of all these countries. Would realize we're all on this little blue planet together maybe one day we could stop all the hate and useless wars and killings! One day.. 🙏🙏 ✌️and ❤️ to all out there shit you may not know it but we are in this together and we may not even know each other but we are! 💯🙏
IF my neighbour & chum Johns’ older brother Mark hadn’t got home to outnumber him ,I’d had missed this because John preferred to watch Scooby Doo rather than John Cravens Newsround.
Besides rockets being super😎 and the universe being very mysterious🧜♂️ this is one of my favorite things about space exploration 🌀за нашу дружбу!🥃🥃
RIP Alexei Leonov
Those 8track tape days 1975
If Russia and US worked together
I wish so much I could have been alive then. Test pilots and nasa astronauts. My heroes all. A different kind of men that don't exsisit the same way anymore.
Forgotten 8track tape era history. 1975 real history more innocent times then.
I like this story 👍
One thing you got wrong : tom Stafford did not conduct the 1st flight of the LM ( that was done on apollo 9) He did conduct the 1st flight of the LM in Lunar orbit
and they showed a picture of a Saturn V launch at the beginning, although this was a Saturn Ib mission
Of course they practiced the handshake.
Happy to known.
I remember.
Americans & Russians deserved to work together during the cold war.
Imagine trying this today with... Oh, I don't know... China. The espionage would be unreal!
Pobre NIKITA.
Whole crew hospitalized for 2 weeks?? They were pretty messed up than😊
"because in space, there is no room for improvisation". Hmm if that were true Apollo 13 would be flying out of the solar system right now with 3 dead men on board ........
Dónde está DISNEY
Where are EMILY BLUNT...La Dulce...
wow
at 25:45 Alexey Leonov spells the truth about space programs 50 years ago !
alexey Leonov : i want to visit Hollywood
brainwashed crowd :hahaha why ?
alexei Leonov : because i want to be a Movie Star !
RIP alexey !
👍
Soyuz was much smaller than Apollo
But the crew cabin of the Soyuz had more room for the crew with two rooms instead of one and the Soyuz had solar panels so they needed less battery’s.
How did u walk on s
Empty xpjux
Russian English Accent is interesting.
Russia was and is and will be more technological than the U.S. People on here do not what they were talking about. To have automous fly by wire and communications you needed CPU processing power. Infact the Pentium 1, 2, 3, and all they way to Pentium Intel i9 chips have sse1 and sse2,3 instructions sets that were developed by the Russian Academy of Sciences. They Americans copied this. This is why Buran flew solo while it took NASA another 20 years to do so. I know this because I have Bachelor's and Master's in Computer Science and stumbled upon this information in a science journal from 1978 as part of my thesis.
Soviets did nothing, U.S. built the docking module , the Apollo rendezvoued with the Soyuz .
U.S. Built the soviet designed docking port 😅

Please change the title of this video. You are misleading people by taking a scientific collaboration and making it look like a political collaboration. What you are really doing is lining your pocket by lying.
They are not actually. Don’t be a tool
I find it impossible to believe no one had shook hands in space prior to this. AWFUL title
Well, not the international one. Which is kinda obvious reading first part of the title...
You're taking it too literally, dummy
🤣
😂😂😂😂
wow
That's all you have to say?
