The Soyuz 37 recovery area about 180 kilometres southeast of Dzhezkazgan, where Leonid Popov and Valeri Ryumin landed on October 11, 1980 after Salyut 6 EO-4. The source identifies the recovery area by distance and direction rather than exact coordinates; the mapped 46 degrees north, 69 degrees east point is representative of the broad published area and is not claimed as the capsule's exact touchdown point.
