The N1 (from Ракета-носитель Raketa-nositel', "Carrier Rocket"; Cyrillic: Н 1) [5] was a super heavy-lift launch vehicle intended to deliver payloads beyond low Earth orbit. The N1 was the Soviet counterpart to the US Saturn V and was intended to enable crewed travel to the Moon and beyond, [6] with studies beginning as early as 1959. [7] .

Three rockets were designed by OKB-1 utilizing these engines: The first variant, YaKhR-2, followed the layout of the R-7 ICBM. With a length of 48 m, it had six strap-ons using 36 conventional LOX-Kerosene Kuznetsov engines. The core of the missile used the nuclear engine.

2020年2月21日 · The N1, or Raketa-nositel "rocket-carrier", was a Soviet heavy-lift launch vehicle intended to send Soviet cosmonauts to the moon in the late 1960s and early 70s. The L3 complex was the four-component system designed to fly and land cosmonauts on the moon.

The N1 Moon rocket At the end of the 1950s, the OKB-1 design bureau led by Sergei Korolev began development of a super-heavy rocket booster, later designated N1. Originally, it was proposed as a multipurpose vehicle for a variety of military and scientific tasks, including launches of space stations, expeditions to the Moon and even a potential ...
