An interesting quote from the February/March issue of "Air & Space" magazine.
"The Rescue of Salyut 7", pg 57.
Cosmonaut Dzhanibekov on docking with Salyut 7 while the station was 'dead'.
"Docking is like driving a seven-ton truck with fragile freight
on an icy road into a narrow gate at the end of this road."
Rather appropriate, eh?
