Title:
Soyuz-Apollo
Description:
Stamps listed by Michel catalog notes that they are local issues and not valid for use on international mailing. The Abkhaz World website states they are postage stamps "legally valid for international mail” but as Abkhazia is not recognized by the Universal Postal Union, their use on international mail (sent via Russia) is simply tolerated by postal administrations and do not confer international legitimacy upon Abkhazia. Please see the illegal stamp categories for stamps that have been made by criminal counterfeit producers outside of Abkhazia that are determined to be illegally produced. Stamp number in Catalog of Republic of Abkhazia: SF18
The "Soyuz-Apollo” space project was a joint mission between the Soviet Union and the United States in 1975. The mission involved the docking of a Soviet Soyuz spacecraft with an American Apollo spacecraft in Earth orbit, marking the first time that spacecraft from different countries had docked in space. The purpose of the mission was to test compatibility between the two spacecraft and to demonstrate the ability of the two countries to work together in space. The mission was a success and paved the way for future international cooperation in space exploration.
