A Soviet space capsule landed in eastern Siberia, thousands of miles from its designated landing site in Central Asia. The capsule, a biosatellite Cosmos 1887, which carried two monkeys, rats, amphibians, fish, and insects, was launched into orbit September 29, 1987. The planned 2-week fly in space, of the capsule, was almost aborted when one of the monkeys freed his left hand on the fifth day of the mission.
