Does anyone know which module MIR the shuttle used to dock with the station?

The shuttle docked to the Kristall module. One its second docking, STS-74, the red colored docking port was attached to the end of Kristall. It is easily seen in this picture:

Thanks Ben. I had read the answer to that in Dragonfly, but when I went back to look for it again, I never could find it.

Thanks again.

No prob...my main hobby is space modeling, so Mir is one current project. I had found and printed about 50 photos, as well as used Dragonfly and Off the Planet for reference.

Speaking of which...Dragonfly is good; but Off the Planet is much better...you shoudl consider it if not already! -Ben
