Kizim and Soloviyov conducted two EVAs while staying on Salyut 7 on 28.05.1986 (3h 50m) and 31.05.1986 (5h 00m), repairing heat, power and environmental control systems and collecting experiment results, experimental apparatus, and samples of materials. After done work returning to MIR on 26. June 1986. It was the first transfer from one space station to an other space station in space history.

When back on MIR Kizim and Soloviyov installed there some systems taken from Salyut and they performed some scientific experiments. One of these experiments was GEOEX 8, in which some areas of the German Democratic Republic were explored by an airplane, a satellite and from space. This was useful for agriculture, geology and environmental protection.

Before returning back to Earth the crew put he MIR into an automatic working modus.
