I’ve been hearing all day that this is the first splashdown since Apollo 17 in 1972, but certainly the Apollo part of Apollo-Soyuz splashed down. That was 1975.

Maybe they’re not counting it because that mission didn’t go to the Moon.

@drdrang Also Skylab in 73 and 74.

@drdrang I think the skylab missions also ended with splashdowns. Were they considered to be part of Apollo Soyuz?
