Soyuz TMA-5 is a Soyuz spacecraft that was launched on October 14, 2004 by a Soyuz launch vehicle from Baikonur Cosmodrome.
The Expedition 10 crew, Leroy Chiao-Cdr U.S.A. and Salizhan Sharipov-Russia is scheduled to replace the Expedition 9 crew, Gennady Padalka-Cdr Russia and Edward Fincke-U.S.A.
The launch of Expedition 10 was delayed beyond its scheduled October 9, 2004 launch date. During preflight testing, an explosive bolt was accidentally activated on the Soyuz TMA-5 spacecraft. The resulting damage caused was repaired.
The docking maneuver had to be done manually, as the approach by the automatic system was too fast.
