Soyuz TMA-5 is aSoyuz spacecraft that was launched on October 14, 2004 by aSoyuz-FG rocket fromBaikonur Cosmodrome.
TheExpedition 10 crew, Leroy Chiao of the US and Salizhan Sharipov of Russia replaced theExpedition 9 crew,Gennady Padalka - Cdr. Russia andEdward Fincke U.S.A.
The launch of Expedition 10 was delayed beyond its scheduled October 9, 2004 launch date. During preflight testing, anexplosive bolt was accidentally activated on the Soyuz TMA-5 spacecraft. The resulting damage was repaired prior to launch.
Thedocking maneuver had to be done manually, as the approach by the automatic system was too fast.
The undocking was done manually as well, as a cautionary measure to save power on a faulty battery.
After 193 days in the station the Expedition 10 crew returned to a soft landing inKazakhstan together with ItalianRoberto Vittori who had flown up with theExpedition 11 crew onSoyuz TMA-6.
