After the Cold war ended, American scientists were invited to view the inside of several older Soyuz capsules. The technology was about on par with American 1920's railroad trains. Also, safety precautions for the cosmonauts were literally non-existant. You can argue that this was all due to the budget, but there were many other issues as well. [/QB][/QUOTE]
