I'm probably #10,000 to write this: Buran was not stolen. It looked much the same as the shuttle, but had no technical similarity whatsoever. It didn't have main engines, but was lifted by an Energia rocket. It had a fully automatic flight system, actually using AI to plan the landing based on weather dats. Many people say that it was better -- but that's neither the truth, because nobody can know. Buran was never completed. It did one fully automatic orbital flight and landing (not remote control, like the video states), which is a very impressive feat, but it was missing many systems to make it a usable manned vehicle. There are a lot of great videos about Buran, and even a few explaining the very advanced AI landing system. Fun fact: when it reentered and was going to land, the scientists thought the landing system had failed because it took a very strange course. But the AI system had interpreted the weather system better than the humans and took a perfect route to land perfectly.
And the one prototype OK-GLI which flue 25 suborbital tests and could fly lice an airplane under its own power actually ended up as an exhibit at speyer technikmuseum in Germany🇩🇪
Define space... if in orbit then yes, but if just over the Karman line (100km recognised by most counties), e.g. a suborbital flight then most people would be surprised tha the first spacecraft into space would be by Nazi Germany during WWII - the V2 did manage it
I know about soviet venus project. The first venus voyager failed on entry in venus atmosphere due to extreme temperature and pressure. But the soviets decided to land a satellite on the planet's surface with full functionality. Afterwards they launched many voyagers until they succeeded. A BIG SALUTE to the SOVIET UNION.

Its like this with almost all large projects. Mount rushmoore was also famously halted during ww2 and the "father" of the project died a few years later so no passionate leader was left to lobby for continued funding, when there are 100s of other project leads begging for further funding too its more feasable to continue another project than trying to get a new lead with the same passion an drive up to speed
Love the video, but a small correction: at 15:53 you said that the first N1 Failure was the big explosion. you´re actually describing the 2nd launch. But other than that it´s a great video and we need more space videos.
they are complettly wrong. It was the ICBM R-19 failure when the rocket exploded during fuel filling and there were 91 dead. There were no causalty during the second failed launch of N1

I could see how the space mirror could help Russia. In the winter, they have a good 3 months or so of no sunlight. The space mirror could provide the region with sunlight during this time frame. It could increase their growing season for food as well as productivity in other areas as well. Though I'm glad it didn't work. We have created enough issues with our climate as it is. We really don't need to cause any more damage than we already have. Very interesting premise, though.
well, it only created a reflection of sunlight about 3 miles wide, so, unless they made it like 20+ times bigger i don't think it would do much really, especially since i don't think they could have stabilized it with the rotation of the earth to well.

It is worth adding that space stations were also successfully invented in the Soviet Union and modern modules for space stations are made based on Soviet technologies.
For some time a public transport company in the Dutch province of Noord-Holland operated a number of the mentioned Russian made hydrofoil boats on a regular service between IJmuiden (on the coast) and Amsterdam Central Station along the coastal canal. It was quite a ride; I've been on them. 👍🏻
Should have mentioned Soyuz, the Soyuz program is the longest operational human spacecraft program in the history of space exploration and still ongoing. Soyuz 7 rocket and Soyuz Spacecraft were the only mean of human transportation to ISS for just about a decade, since last Space Shuttle flight in 2011 to first Space X crewed Dragon Spacecraft in 2020.
It is worth adding that space stations were also successfully invented in the Soviet Union and modern modules for space stations are made based on Soviet technologies.
And how many are there? Three men died in a launchpad fire, and they lost two space shuttles and their crews. When NASA makes mistakes they do not hide the mistake from the public. But Russia hides their mistakes the time! NASA does not do ocean exploration.
The ammunition for the laser gun was small glass vials filed with a mixture of magnesium and oxygen - that is, pretty much the same as an old-fashioned disposebal flash bulb.
The space station with a machine gun was a bad idea. Rapid firing would have knocked it out of orbit and it probably wouldn't slow down enough for the engine to counter the movement for quite stop.
Nah, you just turn it around and fire the same amount of shots in the opposite direction 😊 Fun fact: The gun was stationary, so to aim, the impulse controls for the station were used to move the whole station so that the gun pointed at the target.
The Soviets spent a lot of rubles to get the space shuttle plans. When NASA found out, they said if the USSR had covered the duplication and shipping cost, they could have had all the plans and drawings for free.
I think one of the reasons why we retired our space shuttle was maintenance right. I think it was growing in difficulty after each mission, which ended up having to retire the shuttle, and for a time any ambition to conquer space flight. Anyway, not sure if NASA would of even considered using a Russian Built clone, but considered they shelved 3 of em, it seems like a missed opportunity. We should of bought the 3 Shuttles and continued the space missions. At least our astronauts wouldn't have to hitch hike on other nations missions until Elon comes around
to say that the Buran was copied from the Shuttle is absolutely not correct.. you can say that it was almost the same in design (even if in many aspects they were different) because at that time that was the most appropriate aerodynamic shape for a cargo spacecraft, but in reality they were completely different. internally they were totally different
@rswpt I know; I've visited it. As I've been in the cockpit of the Buran test article next to the Baikonur museum (next to the house where Gagarin slept the night before his flight).
The history of space is largely secret. Remember the X-20 ? It operated for a full year longer than the Gemini program. Pilots were trained to fly the craft and they had a craft built and ready to fly when they claimed the program was canceled. I am pretty sure it just went dark, it was never canceled.
Nope. Sputnik 1 fell out of orbit and burned up after 3 months. "What happened to Sputnik wasn't unusual. In fact, this is what happens to most satellites if you launch them into low-Earth orbit and leave them there to fend for themselves. With each orbit that goes by, the satellite will swing by apogee, where it reaches its maximum distance from Earth's surface, followed by perigee, where it makes its closest approach to Earth... Such disaster is inevitable due to satellite drag, which is a way to quantify how much speed a satellite loses over time due to the atmospheric particles it runs into at high relative speeds. Any satellite in low-Earth orbit will have a lifespan ranging from a few months up to a few decades, but no longer than that." --Forbes
"But, murica is still the only country to put people on the moon"...(rockets build by German engineers and scientists, completely designed in metric measurements)...
The lunar rover was first used on Apollo 15... "The aluminum-framed rover had a three-part chassis that was hinged in the center so it could be folded up and transported in the lunar module on the way to the moon during the Apollo 15 mission... The chassis was hung in the lunar module quad 1 bay, with the underside of the chassis facing out. To deploy the vehicle, one astronaut would climb a ladder on the lunar module and release the rover... The second astronaut, on the ground, would use reels and tapes to slowly tilt it out. As it was let down, the rear wheels folded out and locked in place. Once the wheels touched the ground, the front of the rover could be unfolded, the wheels deployed, and the frame was lowered to the surface with pulleys." --USA Today

Soviets has launched their “Sputnik” satellite but nobody knows why it was round shaped . Americans were given no-nonsense signal: ball shape was exactly size of plutonium sphere of atomic charge. So soviets warned: next time we can send a real nuclear rocket into space and drop it on US. Soviets have never been doing things without double meaning or purpose.
It's still kind of sad to me that we never get a space laser up there. And in a way it is kind of good that we didn't. But I would think it would help to have something up there to help deorbit old satellites and space junk. As well as push asteroids out of Earth's orbit.

While America and NASA took the space race one step at a time, Russia tried to rush things and leap frog NASA. While America lost three astronauts in a capsule fire at the launch pad, Russia lost at least seven men mostly because they landed on land while American astronauts landed on water after practicing with unmanned capsules several times.
