The original footage was grainy and with large color shifts. This was corrected as best as possible, trying to increase shadow detail and display more neutral colors.
Footage was sourced from the Soviet documentary "Steep Roads of Space", supplied by "for all mankind" - many thanks!.

========================================
Salyut 1 (Салют-1) was the world's first space station launched into low Earth orbit by the Soviet Union on April 19, 1971. The Salyut program followed this with five more successful launches of seven more stations.

Salyut 1 was visited by Soyuz 10 and Soyuz 11. The hard-docking of Soyuz 10 failed and the crew had to abort this mission. The Soyuz 11 crew (Georgy Dobrovolsky, Vladislav Volkov, and Viktor Patsayev) achieved successful hard docking in 1973, and performed experiments in Salyut 1 for 23 days.
