Although the USA won the race to the moon, if you’d been a betting person from the mid 1950’s to 1960’s, the chances are that you would have thought the Soviet Union had a very good chance of getting there first.
So why didn’t Russia put a man on the moon?
At the time the soviets were leading the space race, they had already started with the launch of Sputnik, then launched several probes to the moon, including one in 1959 that orbited and taken photos of the far side and By 1961 they were the first to put a man in to space.
So when Kennedy made his now famous “We choose to go to the moon” speech in 1962 to rally public support, Khrushchev’s response was silence, neither confirming nor denying that they had a plan for a manned moon mission.
But at the time Khrushchev wasn’t really interested in competing with the US over the moon, he was more interested ICBM’s the Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles for the strategic rocket forces.
But there were others that had harboured plans for manned mission for a long time, these included the man whose name was a state secret and the most powerful man outside the Kremlin when it came to space.
He was Sergei Pavlovich Korolev, outside the inner circle of the top space scientists he was known only as the “Chief Designer” or by his first 2 initials SP, because the Soviet leadership feared that the western powers would send agents to assassinate him........

If the space race continued back then, we'd already have been on the mars lol
This is one of the reasons why I really want China to keep pushing their space achievements to get the West to become a bit more ambitious.
Brother, one of the main issues on the earth is the war between some countries that inevitably slow down lots of situations. I’m not sure why after decades of conflicts, Middle East is still a mess as well as the Russia Ukraine border and so on.....if We all were able to be peaceful, now we had more money to spend in research related to health, space exploration and other significant matters. We are in 2021 and some races seem to be stuck in the past take in consideration how they behave. I have been wise enough to stop watching news and other shit in tv. Just brainwashing. I prefer instead pick the topic I like and decrease my ignorance reading. I’m trying hard to enhance myself as a person and cultural speaking. We all should have that spirit of be ambitious and improve. Seems like is an utopia. Hopefully this pandemic taught us something. No matter how effective your warfare is, the most powerful countries have been affected deeply and if you want in a embarrassing way , take in consideration the ego that is deliver all the time by them worldwide. I might have been little bit out of topic but .....the core is : we must stop fighting each other’s and create a worldwide joint venture investing money on important matters that will give benefits to all of us. Stay blessed 🇮🇹❤️

+Curious Droid closed systems are pretty cool. They're also known as staged combustion engines.
+Armani Webb err, no sorry. The Merlon engines use gas generator combustion. Reason being they want it simpler for reusability.
It is the ORSC Oxidiser rich staged combustion used on kero-lox engines to avoid formation of carbon residue in the plumbing post the preburner phase.USA used fuel rich staged combustion in the shuttle engines and there was no need for oxygen rich environment because hydrogen is a clean fuel

WOW!

That's pure, ballsy capitalism right there!
The primary reason America baught Russian engines was to keep ex Soviet engineers working so that they wouldn't be recruited by countries like China, Iran, or NK.
Capitalism and free enterprise Richard Branson will fake again! China will astound.
@@mikefay5698yo look insane
Really interesting video, thanks. Imagine lifting a building by its base. The pressure on those engines must be huge. The "Space Race" was really a motivation for technological advances and precision by all involved. Nothing for anyone to be ashamed of.
Except its mostly a big, fat lie, that's something to be hugely ashamed of. There were absolutely no technical advances, zero, because by NASA's own admittance, they LOST IT !! If you can believe that. The so called space race was a sham, the Russians knew early that no human can go through the Van Allen belts. Still can't. Could in 1969, but not now, again, if you can believe that ?? One millionth the computer technology we have now, ut they somehow did it ?? Get real mate.
Its now 2024, what technological advances are you talking about ? There have been none, in fact, for the first time in recorded human history, technology went backward. Artemis is postponed again, again, again, no country is even close to sending humans through the Van Allen radiation belts. In fairness, your comment is 5 years old and hopefully you've seen the truth since then. Cheers.
You are right we appear to be either stagnant or going backwards the 14 trillion dollars spent on the forever wars and what was it 2.3 trillion lost apparently reminds me of George Orwells 1984 novel where the powers within the story expend their industrial surplus in wars whose only purpose is keeping the deep States in power more prophecy that went unheeded.
The end of this story only proves we're stronger when we act together.

Synchronizing 30 engines, and having a stable plumbing/delivery system to them was a nightmare, probably the reason for every one of the technical failures, since they apparently did no modeling or simulation, but depended on trial and error. In this case, heavy on the error.
Controlling the 6 engines in the centre would've been fairly simple, but the other 24 ..... nyet tovarich.

The sun is too hot... they'll have to go at night...
and during the winter time ?
Well... They will have to fly from a different country or hemisphere...
The plan for 12 uncrewed flights is an interesting point. Supposedly the Soviets were shocked by how soon (i.e. after only a couple of uncrewed tests) the US began crewed flights.
Yhep, NASA really took waay to many risks to be first
They didnt even have a backup lander in case one failled (the acent stage had a single ignition), they considered a Gemini backup, but abandoned it
Russia planned to land a backup LK Lander, wich had backup engines if the main engine failled
@@jesusramirezromo2037 well, across all the 32 launches of all the Saturn variants, only the uncrewed Apollo 6 launch was even a partial failure. Whatever could be tested, was, and what couldn't be tested was simplified as much as possible. While risks were taken, they were well calculated risks, shown by the success of the program. And by the way, the lunar module ascent engine, as a hypergolic fueled, pressure-fed engine, had NO ignition.

If the Russians and Americans had cooperated, I think we would be living in mars by now.
qbonumber1 that's wrong because innovation only works with competition
indeed
except, there wouldn't have been any incentive. We went to the moon to beat the Russians at anything because, frankly, they were building better rockets, better weapons and communism was spreading all over the globe. Therefore, within 10 years, the US built a rocket and went to the moon. We've been able to go to mars since the 70s, but it would have cost a whole hell of a lot and held a lot of risk. Because, we won and people just didn't care about space anymore we put the space program back on the low burner. That's why, even with cooperation, we're taking 50 years to even consider going back to the moon and mars. And frankly, it might be a commercial interest that gets us out there first.
Not true, a lot of innovation has been done through co-operation too.
Asphodelle Rose yeah but what drives innovation even further? Competition. It drives companies to do better than others in order to do better and sell more. Cooperation does make innovation but not as fast as competition
These videos are informative and enjoyable to watch, good job!
Now that is what I call a video worth viewing! Excellent work!
I went to the Museum of Cosmonautics when I visited Moscow, and it was definitely worth the visit. Artifacts inside include Yuri Gagarin's ejection seat from Vostok 1, the stuffed bodies of Belka and Strelka (the first Soviet space dogs to return safely to Earth), Michael Collins' spacesuit from Apollo 11, and a miniature model of the Lunokhod (луноход - "moon walker") lunar lander. In nearby VDNKh (ВДНХ) are an actual Korabl (корабль - ship) rocket and the Monument to the Conquerors of Space (aka "Yuri Gagarin Monument").

Could you imagine if we'd worked together?
we did work together after the moon landings
Look at the ISS - in its current shape it was possible because of the shuttle program and Roscosmos' expertise on building the Mir.
Yes indeed the nations of the world are working together now... but the 50s 60s n 70s space programs of the USSR / USA were a strain on both economies
One program for both countries would obviously have been far more cost effective.
Potentially could have resulted in fewer deaths as well
Definitely interesting to daydream of what could have been if our governments were more reasonable..
We are working together in the sky lab! The Russians use their ships as taxi cabs to ship food in New astronauts in and out of the space station.
felix mendez how much evidence do you need footprints have been spotted on the moon
If I was an engineer working on the N1 I would’ve also felt like a complete failure after that 4th blow.

Why did nasa not go back to the moon.They just wasted decades orbiting the earth makes no sense
trans am - Why go back? And who would pay for it? There is no economic or scientific payoff great enough to make it even close to cost effective. I'd love to see us go back, but the American taxpayer doesn't want to foot the bill. You may be too young to remember, but general interest in manned Moon missions declined so quickly after Apollo 11 that the last three Apollo missions were cancelled. Sad, I know there are millions of us who would have gladly suffered higher taxes to see a continued manned presence on the Moon.
Ameerah, yup, we owe them astronomy, mathematic and medecine far beyond what european dark age could invent in the 15th century. But as always, no matter the religion, extremism/integrism was always there. What was the point of the crusades, really ?
Great job. I'm hook , on your video, audio and your voice. What a complex space engine.

I guess they believe if it works ,don't fix it.
It's heavily revised with a glass cockpit and many other features that allow it to automatically dock to the ISS.
But they have no rocket with power to send a spacecraft toward the moon!

tldr: the soviet moon project started 5 years later, had a fraction of NASA's budget and didn't have a single centralised & coordinated programme.
And their rocket was an unreliable piece of junk.
And they had a communist dictator regime government with the bad politics that went with it. The USA had more free thinkers and were not expected to be put to death for failure.
@@benn454 those soviet moon rockets were ahead of their time.. but too complicated to be realised in 60s without a proper electronics and computing
@@impaugjuldivmax Right, by themselves they're great. But put a bunch of them together with primitive 60s-Soviet thrust control and they go boom.
And they didn't have the industry to properly make and test things
Probably the biggest weakness in the Soviet design was the lack of computer processing power at the time made it almost impossible to manage such a complex system of 30 rocket engines.
Possibly.
Not really. These systems are not that complex with analog computers and all of those failures were due to issues in rocket or engine designs. Neither USA nor USSR had any meaningful computing power. Apollo mission for example was done on ridiculously feeble computer.
lastest neil test lem on earth with manual pilot system it fall and expload
They were unable to perfect large engines like the F1 in the Saturn five that’s why I think they had 32 engines in there very large rocket built by an airplane manufacturer
@@yoskarokuto3553 The Lunar Landing Training Vehicle allowed astronauts to master the intricacies of landing on the Moon by simulating the lunar module’s performance. The open-framed LLTV used a downward pointing turbofan engine to counteract five-sixths of the vehicle’s weight to simulate lunar gravity and LM-like thrusters for attitude control. The astronauts were thus able to simulate manoeuvring and landing on the lunar surface while still on Earth.
Out of over 100 flights only one LLRV and two LLTVs were destroyed in crashes, but the rocket ejection seat system safely recovered the pilot in all cases. Following the loss of LLRV-1 on May 6, 1968, in which Neil Armstrong ejected seconds before the vehicle crashed, NASA grounded all the vehicles pending an investigation. It was revealed that unanticipated depletion of helium used to pressurize fuel tanks resulted in loss of vehicle control.

@Horatio KJV Bible You're an idiot.
You forgot to mention that Korolev died from the severe consequences of his earlier 6-year Gulag stay, which caused him lifelong health issues that ended up killing him prematurely.
So basically Stalin's paranoid purge caused his nation to lose the chance of winning the space race (among many other disgraces).
RIP Sergey Korolev, one of the most brilliant engineers of all times
5:18 This fact has been mentioned here though indirectly. It is surprising that he survived that 6-year gulag life.
This story is a thirdhand myth. before he got in gulag, Korolyov was involved in severe accidents of being traumatized by exploding jet engines he developed. Even more, his negligence in test and development safety was among other things the reason of him being arrested and sentenced to gulag.
They should have created their own space agency from real Jew killing nazis, like US did with NASA, which was created around nazi scientists. /sarcasm (Google operation paperclip)
The space race was clearly won by the Soviets.
The U.S. did win the moon race though.

They say nothing is constant but change, but looking back at history... the history that "might" be a true account (as most recorded history is a book of lies), is doomed to repeat it. Look at WWII... they said it was the war to end all wars, and now we're talking WWIII. It never ends. We are doomed to repeat. Only the years change... but everything else remains the exact SAME.

Fantastic and very interesting video. Thank you very much for making this. How did you obtain all that old Soviet video material?
Soviets had inferior special effects, USA had Kubrick.

Hey Einstein, it looked like a movie because guess what? It was a movie! Do you actually think they were going to make the moon landing look like a movie? The only thing that is dead, is your brain.
That's a rather poor response my friend. There are SO many errors made in the moon scenes in "2001: A Space Odyssey" including false assumptions about the environment, where not once do they ever attempt to simulate 1/6th gravity (they simply asked the actors to walk slowly and carefully), that it's laughable to claim that it's same work of those who faked the Apollo footage.
Hence watch the following two part video (10 minutes each) that lists all the obvious errors in the 2001 moon scenes;

Look at the 'astronauts' in part 2 at 7:26 until the end of the video. That's 1/6th gravity to you? :)
Please explain, not why you believe nobody has been to the moon, why you WANT and NEED to believe nobody went to the moon?

Wonderful video..very interesting thank you.
Excellent video!
Watching CD reruns and enjoying each episode just as much as the first time around if not more. So good.
Great video. Really appreciate educational channels like yours. keep it up.
"educational"?...you must be kidding or very dumb...
@@car-ls8uc you must not have much of a life. Good bye.
Brilliant video.
Great video!...Interestingly, the Americans had assumed the bottleneck for the Soviets would be their ability to create a lunar lander but in fact the Soviets had that part completed - The LK (Lunniy Kkorabyl; Russian for 'lunar craft') as it was known was completed but decommissioned once the N! failures precluded the Russians going to the Moon. Ref: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LK_(spacecraft) . One major difference between the Russian LK and tte American LM (Lunar Module) was the Russian craft was designed to take ONE man to the lunar surface whereas the US LM was able to take TWO men (per mission) to the Moon suface.
Also, the entire LK lifted off to rendezvous, and the cosmonaut would have to do an EVA to get back to the mother ship - no docking tunnel. Interestingly, the movie Apollo 18 (fictional - I've never seen it, but I've read the story synopsis) postulated that they found a Soviet LK on the moon and one of the astronauts used it to get off the moon.
russia was to lazy and greedy like their putin
While on this subject I’d thought you could have covered Chelomei’s competing rocket the UR700 and UR700 nuclear. The engines for that rocket and it’s whole structure just appeals to me, even to this day. Although by now we can dispense with the UDMH propellant and use RD180 or RD170
BANG!
russia was to lazy and greedy like their putin
It would have been **very** interesting to see the outcome of the Soviet moon landing attempt if the N1 worked. And there's no sarcasm in that statement. It would have been fascinating to see how two different programs went about landing men on the moon from a totally different perspective.
Several astronauts stated that vostok rockets are on the moon.
@@lasvegassecurity2958 That'd be impossible because for the entire rocket to get to the moon it'd have to escape Earth's atmosphere, which simply isn't doable.
Nighterlev bro what
I think it would fuel an entirely new space race.
The two most terrifying things would probably have been orbital rendezvous, and lunar touchdown. Though the Russians were ahead of the Americans in some areas - the oxygen-rich preburner cycle engines, for example - they were way behind on computer technology. There would have been no guidance computer in the LK lunar lander; the cosmonauts who would have gone to the moon trained to land it BY HAND. Anyone who's played Kerbal space program will likely turn pale at the mere thought of a lunar landing under manual guidance in real life.
Vastly increasing the psychological pressure was the fact that whilst the Apollo-Saturn programme sent three people to the moon each time, two of whom would land whilst the third stayed in orbit, the N1-L3 system was a two-person affair - one would orbit the moon in the Soyuz module (which, much like the NK-33 engine, actually turned out to be a pretty good piece of kit and is still in service today, upgraded to carry three people, but originally only carried two) whilst the other would SPACE-WALK from the Soyuz orbiter just to get into to the LK lander (the two craft could be clamped together, but the lander did not have a true docking port), then descend to the moon *alone,* and land *manually*.
Then do a lunar EVA with no partner to help you into your suit, or help you stand up if you fall on your back and "turtle" yourself. A lot of clever thought went into the design of the lunar "Krechet 94" suit as a result of this - it was a "semi-hard" suit with rear entry, almost a tiny space-capsule in its own right, and so had a "hatch" that allowed you to get into it and seal it up without assistance, and a large offset "hula-hoop" could apparently be attached to ensure that if you did fall backwards, you'd roll around and land on your front.
Fantastic video!
Great stuff!
It is really inspiring that the video is mostly about the science than politics.
Thank you!
Politics started space Khrushchev. Needed a Rocket to reach the USA. Too small so they launched Sputnik.
I agree. It was a very thorough discussion of the scientific factors. The political ones we can all infer = )
For everyone saying we did go to the moon or didn't .do a gofund to build a big telescope to search the surface of the moon see if the landing gear is there still there after all it was left behind on take off. And anything in no atmosphere will not rust or decompose. And the moor does have some grav so the landing gear should still be on the surface
The moon is too far away to see an object a few meters across.
"no telescope on Earth can see the leftover descent stages of the Apollo Lunar Modules or anything else Apollo-related. Not even the Hubble Space Telescope can discern evidence of the Apollo landings. The laws of optics define its limits."

@@Dewydidit The Japanese moon orbiter SELENE has managed to photograph them, because of being in the Moons' orbit.
Considering the poor US/Soviet relations at the time. it's a GUARANTEE that if the moon landings were fake, the Soviets WOULD HAVE EXPOSED IT AS SUCH.
Those pictures have already been taken from lunar orbit many years after the Apollo program. They show the lander base, astronauts footprints, lunar rover, rover tracks, etc.

Great documentary. It's great to know all that hard work by Soviet engineers come to good use to develop our current systems.

An excellent explanation with the facts (I wasn't aware of) put together. Perfect diction and the way of the data presenting! Thank you :-)
perfect pacing too... very important for documentaries saturated with information.
AMAZING. I never knew this stuff. Very interesting.

Kind of weird when, at 2:10, talking about Korolev's innovations, to have a photo of a mockup of the Apollo-Soyuz from 1975. I mean, you're talking about the competition, and you show an image of a mission that took place more than five years after the competition was over and almost a decade after Korolev died.
lol! true!
Another info filled "great" video 📹 👍
It turns out that carrying a payload in Earth’s orbit and to the Moon are two wildly different things. I thought the race was way closer!
This is the best documentary I have seen on the subject of the Russian lunar program. Very nicely done!
Ima Jeffrey too!
Well, no mention of the lunokhod...
With all the technological advances in the past 50 years, hopefully, we will see another person on the moon, soon.
The twist with the rocket engines was unreal - I couldn't believe it when i heard it as a kid.

Short answer “ they ran out of money “. I also read , years ago , that their design for a space capsule included levers and treadles similar to a steam locomotive, crude and not able to do the job. Nice report thank you for sharing.
ran out of reason
give china credit they will get to the moon before the great russia ,lol.
This is fascinating. I've always wanted to know more about the N-1. This is the first time I've seen actual N-1 footage 🌙🚀

Because their moon rocket launch facility at Baikanur was obliterated when one of their rockets exploded on the launchpad
Nederlin disaster?
@@batvette Nope. That was much earlier and had a very large number of victims.
The one that took out the scientists and project leadership? Where they wanted to make the launch date coincide with a national celebration, so to fix a simple-ish problem they didn’t drain the fuel?
great video
Didn’t know about all this. Time for a follow.
Very informative video...I always wondered anout it ...great explanation
I was born in 1950, and grew up during "The Cold War", everyone thinking they were seconds away from "The Button" being pushed, and instant atomic annihilation, the U.S. and Russia. In retrospect, it's all just sad. What could have been accomplished, had we all worked together. Just sad. I can't say things have really changed today...different faces, different names...still politically the same. You could say, "Well, there's the ISS." But seriously, what does that amount to.
Agreed
USA and Britain wanted to blow the USSR up already in 1945. Cold war was declared specifically by Churchil using misinterpretation of Stalin speech (Stalin original speech as video is here on youtube btw). If you are interested, research - but USSR was not the one interested in cold war or keeping any tensions.
Absolutely tragic these great minds were not and still not joined in a common mission. It happened marginally but now we race forward yet again toward MAD.
Inevitable that nuclear weapons propelled by this technology will devastate the world.
Dios este con nosotros.
In retrospect, it's all just sad. What could have been accomplished, had we all worked together. The answer IS: nothing.
Hey, how do you like the government trying to restart the Cold War today? People like you and I have to remind these dumb idiot kids what kind of terror was the Cold War.
I don't think the US or the USSR was much interested in actually going to nuclear war. The US I think was more interested in justifying a huge defense budget and any other war they actually wanted to engage in, and the USSR was just matching the US because they felt they had to.
Today, there is no USSR and Russia and China probably have superior weaponry and military to the United States. We're as corrupt in the United States in terms of our establishment as the Soviet leadership was back in 1985.
Love your videos. Dude you
Must know and someone probably also noted this video explains the time turning point of history with the death in the for all man kind tv show. Your videos are incredibly educational.
Cause they didn’t have Hollywood !
Korolev and Kuznetzov - two **hugely brilliant** guys! Respect from New Zealand!
I'm from New Zealand, to!!!
Glushko was responsible for the engines. Also many unnamed german engineers and scientists.
Sergey Korolev is pretty high up on my list of people I would like to have met. The responsibility he took on was tremendous.
Does that mean Michael Jackson faked the moonwalk?
His Moonwalk was probably the ONLY-REAL-MOON-WALK!
the moonwalk was actually called the backslide and the moonwalk was a forward moving dance that looked like floating.
😂
Actually he did cheat. He had special souls on his shoes that caught on counter-sunk "holds" in the stage.
@John Sinclair NOT SO: RUclips: (vitiligo michael jackson)
Vitiligo is a permanent loss of skin-pigmentation, which people have falsely labeled "WHITE-SKIN", as opposed to colorless skin, and as against "Black Skin" which is just "Tinted Skin", similar to the various tint-shades in car-glass-windows, from NO-tint, to very tinted! "White" is an actual pigment, such as in white-paint (Titanium-Dioxide-particles), or as in milk (Calcium-Carbonate-particles), both of which are white-particles! There is NO white-particles, or white pigments in humans (even in albinos), or in animals (such as in colorless pigs & mice)! I hope that made sense!
The Soviets cosmonaut's worried that they will feel homesick
nice one xD
"Get Your Ass To Mars" - Carl Hauser Total Recall.
USSR:First to launch spacecraft
First to orbit the earth
First lifeform in space
First man in space
First woman in space
First to do a spacewalk
First to orbit the moon
First to put a manmade object on the moon
First soft moon landing
First to have a Spacestation(other countries have since then connected their spacestations to the Soviet one)
Basically first in anything in space
USA: puts two men on moon, "we win"
USSR:"am I a joke to you"
USA: YES
On a more serious take. The US managed to do all that after the USSR did it. But the Soviet Union never managed to put a man on the moon. According to that reasoning yes. But its not like I'm downplaying the USSR. Their space program is a good legacy.
Soviets also had the first soft landing on the moon, with Luna 9 beating the American Surveyor 1 by a few months.
