Description
The Soviet Space Program: The N1, the Soviet Moon Rocket By Eugen Reichl Schiffer Publishing, 2019 144 pages, hardcover This book presents the complete history of the Soviet manned moon program, focusing on the N1 rocket. Standing at an impressive 345 feet tall, the N1 was the largest rocket ever built by the Soviets and played a crucial role in their space ambitions. Despite initial advantages, the N1 program faced numerous technical and personnel challenges, leading to spectacular failures and delays. The book provides detailed technical descriptions of the N1's design and development, as well as a full discussion of its attempted launches, disasters, and ultimate cancellation in 1974. By examining this rarely known Soviet program, readers can gain insight into the complexities of space exploration and the challenges faced by the Soviet Union in their pursuit of lunar success. A comprehensive history of the N1 rocket and the Soviet moon program, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in space exploration and the history of the Soviet space program.
