Black and white photograph of the Soviet Buran orbiter at the Baikonur Cosmodrome launch pad. The spacecraft is vertically positioned within the Energia launch vehicle and is undergoing pre-launch processing.

The Buran spacecraft was a key element of the Soviet reusable space program, developed in the 1970s and 1980s as a response to the American Space Shuttle program.

Buran's only spaceflight took place on November 15, 1988.

The photograph is mounted on cardboard; lines from a poem are inscribed on the reverse side.
