About this work
STS076-344-003 (24 March 1996) --- The Space Shuttle Atlantis Orbiter Docking System (ODS) and the Docking Module (DM) on Russia's Mir Space Station appear near the center of this frame, as the Atlantis and Mir link in Earth-orbit, at about 160 nautical miles altitude. The STS-76 crew later diminished by one and the Mir-21 crew grew by one, as astronaut Shannon W. Lucid, mission specialist, went aboard the Mir Space Station and became a cosmonaut guest researcher.
