Voskhod was a Soviet Union crewed spacecraft, built as a development of and a follow-on to the earlier Vostok spacecraft, and flown as part of the Voskhod programme. Voskhod 1 carried a three-person crew, and Voskhod 2 carried a crew of two, each spacecraft consisting of a spherical descent module that housed the cosmonauts and instruments and a conical equipment module that carried propellant and the engine system. Voskhod was superseded by the Soyuz spacecraft in 1967.
