Members of the third crew that will live aboard the International Space Station, from left Pilot Vladimir Dezhourov from Russia; Flight Engineer Mikhail Tyurin from Russia; and Commander Ken Bowersox, a astronaut, participate in Soyuz winter survival training in March 1998 near Star City, Russia. The training prepares the crew in the event the Soyuz spacecraft, used as an emergency crew return "lifeboat" for the station, were to land in a location where the crew could not be immediately reached.
