I feel very lucky to have his autograph and photo. Rest in peace, Cosmonaut Kubasov. I have a video of a mission with Dale Gardner in it (51A) that I show as part of the presentation that I do, and people love it. It's the best part of my presentation. Rest in peace. |

Joe Allen took some phenomenal photos on his flights using natural light. I love the pic above of Gardner from 51A.Great tribute, Ed! |

A cS reader notes that the camera is a Kiev FK6, which was designed specifically for use on the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project.On edit: An additional website in Russian about the Kiev FK6 camera. |
