Return from Orbit (Russian: Возвращение с орбиты, romanized: Vozvraschenie s orbiti) is a Soviet 1984 science fiction film directed by Aleksandr Surin.[2][3] It featured scenes filmed in orbit onboard Salyut 7 space station and Soyuz T-9 spacecraft.[4]
The film depicts an accident on an orbital station where a meteor storm results in a life-threatening injury for the mission commander which requires an emergency return to Earth. An experienced team is sent to evacuate the crew and repair the station, but faces another serious incident which puts their own lives in grave danger.
