An untended Soviet spacecraft carrying fuel, food, equipment, and mail, docked with the Mir space station. Two Soviet cosmonauts, on a long duration mission, tended Mir. The cosmonauts, Vladimir Titov and Musa Manarov, arrived at the space station in December and were expected to stay in space for about a year, breaking the 325-day endurance record set the previous year by Yuri V. Romanenko. (FBIS-Sov-88-108, Jun 6/88; SSR 1988 038A; AP, May 14/88)
