  1. Re:Russians Do It More Economically on Energiya Pushes For A 6-Person Space Capsule · · Score: 3, Informative
    Actually I think your numbers might be a bit off. The 800 figure you quoted is the total number of soyuz flights (manned and unmanned).

    The correct number of _manned_ soyuz flights is ~87. This includes soyuz, soyuz-t, soyuz-tm and soyuz-tma flights.

    So, the reliability of _manned_ flights is statistically approx. equal between sts and soyuz.

    Ofcourse, soyuz hasn't had a serious accident since the seventies.
