Launched on 29 September 1977 by a Proton rocket, the station was the first of the \"second-generation\" type of space station. Salyut 6 possessed several revolutionary advances over the earlier Soviet space stations, which it nevertheless resembled in overall design. These included the addition of a second docking port, a new main propulsion system and the station's primary scientific instrument, the BST-1M multispectral telescope. The addition of the second docking port made crew handovers and station resupply by unmanned Progress freighters possible for the first time.", "orbit": "Low Earth Orbit", "owners": [ { "id": 63, "url": "https://lldev.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/agencies/63/?format=api", "name": "Russian Federal Space Agency (ROSCOSMOS)", "abbrev": "RFSA" } ], "active_expeditions": [], "image_url": "https://thespacedevs-dev.nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/media/images/salyut25206_image_20190318095930.jpg" }, { "id": 18, "url": "https://lldev.thespacedevs.com/2.2.0/spacestation/18/?format=api", "name": "Tiangong space station", "status": { "id": 1, "name": "Active" }, "type": { "id": 2, "name": "Government" }, "founded": "2021-04-29", "deorbited": null, "description": "The Tiangong space station is a space station placed in Low Earth orbit between 340 and 450 km above the surface.

Although the basic design of Salyut 1 was retained, it switched to three large solar panels mounted on the forward module rather than its predecessor's four small panels on the docking module and engine compartment, presumably to generate more power. It had an interior floor area of 34.8 sq. The pitch of the station was 2 X 59 N, yaw was 2 X 59 N and roll was 2 X 20 N. The electric System produced an average of 2.00 kW of power. It had 2,000 kg of scientific equipment alongside two sets of three solar panels each and was equipped with the Delta Navigation System which was a new autonomous navigation system that calculates orbital elements without assistance from ground. It was powered by KTDU-66 thrusters.
