N1 Rocket Rocket
The Vostok Europe watch N1 Rocket is inspired by the heavy rocket of the same name. Indeed, this rocket was designed to send the cosmonautics on the moon and place huge space stations in orbit. So, N1 was the Russian equivalent of the American rocket Saturn Vat the time of the first political and military space issues.
The drafts of N1 Rocket started in 1959 under the direction of Korolev within theB OK-1, following a decree of January 1960. Korolev will express in the Pravda: "The possibility of a direct exploration of the Moon, ... the construction of a scientific station inhabited on the moon. ". We are then at the beginning of the space conquest. And at that time, technology, science fiction, fantasy and politics mixed for the happiness of viewers and the anguish of the secret services!
Gigantic, the N1 rocket actually had 5 floors, the first comprising 30 engines running on kerosene and liquid oxygen. Unfortunately the development of this heavy launcher has suffered from political and technical problems. Finally, she was replaced by the rocket Energia who has reused his modified launch pad.
