The first space station, Salyut 1, burned up over the Pacific Ocean after 175 days in space. The station was launched by the Soviet Union in 1971. 

During its 175 days in space, Salyut 1: 

• Completed 2,929 orbits of Earth 
• Traveled a total distance of over 118 million kilometers (73 million miles) 
• Was only manned for 24 of its 175 days in space 
• Was intentionally crashed into the Pacific Ocean 

The Salyut program, which means “salute” or “fireworks” in Russian, was the first space station program. Salyut 1 paved the way for future space stations. 

No, Salyut 1 is not still in space. The station’s mission was terminated on October 11, 1971, when its engines fired for the last time, bringing it into a lower orbit that resulted in its eventual plunge into the Pacific Ocean. 

The backup module for the Mir Base Block became incorporated into the International Space Station (ISS) as the Russian Segment’s Zvezda Service Module, launched in 2000 and still on orbit today. The Zvezda Service Module traces its heritage back to Salyut.

The first crew of Salyut 1 died while returning to Earth. The three-man crew, Georgy Dobrovolsky, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patasayev, were killed by asphyxiation caused by a failed valve in their Soyuz 11 spacecraft shortly before reentry into the Earth’s atmosphere. The crew are the only people to have died above the Kármán line. 

The crew spent 23 days aboard the station in June 1971, setting a new space endurance record. They performed experiments and explored the then many unknowns of human space habitation. 

Further missions to Salyut 1 were canceled, and the Soyuz spacecraft was redesigned.

The first crew to successfully live on Salyut 1 was the Soyuz 11 crew, who lived on the station for 24 days.  The crew consisted of cosmonauts Georgi Dobrovolski, Vladislav Vokov, and Viktor Patsayev. They successfully docked with the station on June 6, 1971, after which they remained on board for 383 orbits for 24 days.  This set a new space endurance record. 

The Soyuz 11 capsule depressurized during reentry, killing the crew. The crew died when their Soyuz, which at that time carried no support system for individual pressure suits, inadvertently lost its air.

The early first-generation stations, including Salyut 1, were plagued by failures: 

• Docking mechanism problem The crew of Soyuz 10, the first spacecraft sent to Salyut 1, was unable to enter the station because of a docking mechanism problem. 
• Electrical fire On June 29, after 23 days and flying 362 orbits, the mission was cut short due to problems aboard the station, including an electrical fire. 
• Toxic air supply During the re-entry process, a problem rendered the air supply of Soyuz 10 toxic, and one of the cosmonauts slipped into unconsciousness. 
• Launch failure DOS-2, a space station launched as part of the Salyut programme, was lost in a launch failure on 29 July 1972. The failure of the second stage of its Proton-K launch vehicle prevented the station from achieving orbit.

The Mir space station was larger than the Salyut 1 space station: 

• Mir: The Mir space station was 60 feet (19 meters) long and 100 feet (31 meters) wide. It was the first modular space station. 

• Salyut 1: The Salyut 1 space station was 65 feet (20 meters) long and 13 feet (4 meters) in diameter at its widest point. It was shaped like a cylinder. 

The Mir space station was designed to house more cosmonauts on longer stays than the Salyut could support. It had a greater mass than any previous spacecraft. It was the largest artificial satellite in orbit at the time. 

The Mir space station was assembled in orbit from 1986 to 1996. It had a record six docking ports. It hosted scores of crewmembers and international visitors. It raised the first crop of wheat to be grown from seed to seed in outer space

The Salyut space station had several objectives, including: 

• Testing space station systems 
• Conducting scientific research and experiments 
• Making human presence in space routine and continuous 
• Testing equipment to make space stations more habitable 
• Carrying out long-term research into the problems of living in space 
• Conducting astronomical, biological, and Earth-resources experiments 
• Carrying the Apollo Telescope Mount, the most powerful solar telescope ever placed in orbit 
• Carrying apparatus for Earth resources observations and materials science research 

The Salyut program included military space stations, such as Salyuts 3 and 5, and scientific space stations, such as Salyuts 4, 6, and 7. Salyut 4 was launched in 1974 and was mainly for scientific purposes. Two crews spent 30 and 63 days aboard the station in 1975, setting new Soviet space endurance records and conducting science experiments. Salyuts 6 and 7 were of an advanced design that featured a new refueling system and better living quarters.
