Packing Tips

Packing Tips

The crew works through the plan for packing the descent module of the Soyuz with the results of their experiments and personal belongings. The descent module is tiny and very densely packed. Also, it needs to have a very precise center of gravity, so each item that will be returned must be carefully planned for. This training happened in a hall that is used to store a few real Soyuz capsules, seen in the background.
