SALYUT 7 - First Spacewalk - Real Speed, Stabilized Footage (1982) - Салют 7 Russian Space Station

Footage of the first EVA (spacewalk) performed by the first Salyut 7 space station crew on July 30, 1982. Anatoli Berezovoy and Valentin Lebedev arrived at the station on 13 May 1982 on Soyuz T-5 and remained for 211 days, until 10 December 1982. Salyut 7 (Салют-7) was a space station in Earth orbit from April 1982 to February 1991. Performing the first EVA from Salyut 7, Lebedev anchored himself with a foot restraint, while Berezovoy assisted from the hatch. After collecting and placing samples on the exterior surface of the spacecraft, Lebedev tested methods for assembly and disassembly work in space, including the Istok panel experiment of turning bolts with a special wrench. The EVA lasted 2 h 33 min.

Gemini B cockpit layout

The Gemini B was the military version of the Gemini spacecraft, adapted for use on the MOL (Manned Orbiting Laboratory) program. The general cockpit layout was similar, but many instruments were changed. I'm doing a 3D model of the cockpit, and as part of that I need to recreate the dashboard layout. For the normal Gemini we have great detailed instrument layouts, but for Gemini B we must work based on photos. I've identified as much labels as possible. Some probably have errors, but still I think you get the idea of the general operation. The main difference from the stock Gemini is that gauges and switches are more protected perhaps from accidental touching. Also you have controls for the MOL laboratory on the right hand panel.

Hermes space shuttle interior, cockpit and instrument panel resources

The ESA Hermes space shuttle project ran from 1975 to 1992, after an original proposal from the French CNES (National Space Studies Center). The spacecraft was intended to serve two proposed  European  space stations:  the Man Tended Free-Flyer / Columbus Space Station and the Polar Platform. Before cancellation, some mock-ups and trainers were built.   Because the project was developed in the 1980's there aren't many reference photos on the web.  I'm taking the liberty of posting the all the images I could find on the web  of the Hermes interior, cockpit and instrument panels. This way they are grouped all  together in a single place for the convenience, so that the general layout can be understood and the different mock-ups / simulator versions can be sorted out.  Hermes shuttle flight simulator Hermes shuttle simulator Hermes shuttle misc mock-ups Hermes shuttle mock-up version "a" ...

Vostok panels

I've more or less completed the Vostok panels. The main panel is reasonably accurate, but the side panel is still very rough. Without better reference images it will be hard to do.
