The Soyuz 7K-OK is the first generation of soviet Soyuz spacecraft, flying from November 11, 1966 to June 1, 1970. It had a crew of 2-3 astronauts and was produced in two versions, "Active" and "Passive", describing its role during docking and the configuration of the early docking port. It was a major evolution from the early Vostok spacecraft and plagued with early problems.
Description[edit]
The Soyuz spacecraft consists of three modules, of which only the descent module CA returns to Earth. Every module is specialized for its tasks.
Orbital Module БО[edit]
Extends habitable space, contains galley and toilet, acts as airlock, contains the ingress hatch for entering the spacecraft on the launch pad. Contains the Игла/Igla (Needle) docking guidance system. The orbital module is easily adapted for new docking adapters, docking guidance systems or scientific payloads.
Descent Module СА[edit]
Crew, crew seats, front hatch, Sirius-7K IDS, Visor (Визр) periscope, hydrogen peroxide attitude control, heat shield, landing rockets.
Propulsion Module ПО[edit]
Contains all navigation sensors, solar arrays, pressurized electronics compartment, hydrogen peroxide for the ДО and ДПО thrusters, Dinitrogentetroxide and Unsymmetrical Dimethylhydrazine for main(СКД) and backup engine (ДКД).
Subsystems[edit]
Attitude control[edit]
ДО (DO) and ДПО (DPO) thruster systems, using hydrogen peroxide.
45K sun tracker[edit]
TV cameras[edit]
КР-75, КР-71/1, КР-71/2, КР-91. КР-74 TV signal multiplexer.
СКД main engine[edit]
ДКД back-up engine[edit]
