DocM Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Space is hard Anatoly Zak of RussianSpaceWeb (great site!!) looks back at the events of April 24, 1967. In his article are pics of Komarov's capsule taken by would-be rescuers. It's a multi-page article so don't forget to click the next-page links. Soyuz-1 wasn't supposed to be a solitary mission; Soyuz-2 was to join it for a 2-ship docking attempt and 2-man crew transfer via spacewalks, but things went downhill and Soyuz-2 never launched - probably saving the 3 cosmonauts who were to fly on Soyuz-2.
