{{DISPLAYTITLE:List of ''Mir'' expeditions}}
This is a chronological '''list of principal expeditions to ''[[Astronomy:Mir|Mir]]''''', a [[Place:Soviet Union|Soviet]]/{{wipe|Russia}}n space station in [[Astronomy:Low Earth orbit|low Earth orbit]] from 1986–2001. All principal ''Mir'' crews (those that were resident long-term on the station) were named {{nowrap|"Mir EO-''n''"}}, where EO stands for Expedition Operations, and the ''n'' is sequentially increased with each expedition. Visiting expeditions, which made short-term visits to the station during handovers between principal expeditions were named {{nowrap|"Mir EP-''n''"}}, and are excluded from this list (see [[Astronomy:List of human spaceflights to Mir|List of human spaceflights to Mir]] for details). ''Mir'' commanders are listed in ''italics''. "Duration" refers to the crew and does not always correspond to "Flight up" or "Flight down".
