Two Soviet cosmonauts and a French astronaut returned to Earth aboard a Soyuz TM-6 capsule, following the completion by the Soviets of a record breaking year-long endurance mission aboard the Mir space station. Cosmonauts Vladimir Titov and Musa Manarov, launched into space on December 21, 1987, and French astronaut Jean-Loup Chretien, successfully landed their capsule in Kazakhstan. Titov and Manarov were to undergo extensive medical tests to determine the effects of prolonged weightlessness.
