Good morning!
I am retired from the European Space Agency (ESTEC in Holland) and I am writing a book chapter on the history of space antennas.
I want to mention quite a bit about russian achievements in this area.
Is it possible to use some of your excellent photos?
Do I have to make an official request ? and if so to whom .
Thanks a lot and best regards.

Hi, this is Dan.
I’m interested in knowing the location of a particular Soyuz capsule that flew to space in 1986, Soyus-TM1.
Is there a way to find its location?
Can you help me finding more information about that flight?

Thanks a lot.

Your site is really cool
