@@Iamlurking504 that was cause of just one failure. Lets say each flight ecountered different issues, but big problem was vibration, which had tendency to damage plumbing, destroy engines, cause fires... and so on... Tbf im curious how it will turn out on super heavy. People like to say multi engine rockets were figured out beacuse Falcon Heavy has 27 engines lit on pad, however, Falcon Heavy is technically 3 9 engine boosters so it is quite a different situation. We will see in the hopefully not far future
FOUR N1 launches in SINGLE episode, thats impressive man Even if due to bad luck you will loose the race to the moon, i feel like your program could be way more sustainable
It is days like these that the borders of the world, just for a moment, disappear. For wether we are socialist or capitalist, russian or american, we are all one thing. Explorers. And as explorers, we always know that there is a risk inherent in journeying to the stars. These realms above us, the cosmos, as we have come to call it, is so hostile to life in every way. And far from everyone who dares journey into this realm returns safely. For some, it is their last journey. For all of us, we always know that this one might be. Yet, it is in the kerbal nature to want to explore. To step beyond the known boundaries. See what is behind that hill. Atop that mountain. Inside that cave, no matter how dangerous it seemed. Kerbalkind, for as long as we can think, has explored, no matter what. It has explored, it has discovered, it has charted new land since the beginning of time. No amount of danger has ever stopped kerbalkind from pushing beyond its comfort zone, and no amount of danger ever will. We cannot conceive yet of what dangers lie ahead of us. We cannot even begin to imagine. Yet, we know that danger has never stopped explorers, no matter how unimaginable it must have seemed to their ancestors. When the Wilbur Kerman first took flight, not once could he have conceived that men who were alive to see their first feeble attempts at flying would be alive to see other explorers take all the risks that came with flying to the Moon, though had they known, they would have understood the risk these same men were about to take. And of course, not all are bound to return to Earth alive. But such is the nature of explorers. Explorers know that they may not return, and that, in fact, many do not. Yet they go anyway. Pavel and Gherman were not the first to die in pursuit of this dream of a new frontier. Neither will they be the last. Yet, we, as explorers, know the risks involved with our jobs. And we shall remember these explorers forever as what they were. Brothers. Brothers in our exploration of the cosmos. And even if they were not destined to tell their tales themselves, they shall be remembered. For their bravery, for their dedication, for their willingness to go beyond the cradle we call Earth, and allow us to reach beyond its confines. Not for Moscow. Not for Washington. For all Kerbalkind.
Beardy, if you ever have a stage failure like Rodina 4 again, point the nose high. You're not going to space today, but at 4000m/s downrange velocity, a very nose-high attitude can give you the precious time you need to get your kosmonauts to a safe reentry trajectory, especially as you're at 350km when you have your engine-out failure. Even if you need turn burn at 60 or more degrees above the horizon, you'll also improve your TWR as you dump fuel overboard. Especially as you have the fourth stage to give you the extra push when it's done burning. Fun fact, this is why the Atlas-Starliner uses a twin engine Centaur, as a single engine would need to be lofted onto an unsafe reentry trajectory to properly orbit the spacecraft. We salute you, Heroes of the Soviet Union.
Even with the failures of N1 in this Series, it's still more reliable than the real deal ever was. RIP Pavel and Gherman, may you not be forgotten, but we all know this is the Soviet Program so....

Excellent video, although the loss of your two Kerbals was a definite low point. One small thing, and I don't pretend to be an expert here, but I read somewhere the Soviet docking system was only capable of being used once. The act of docking smashed the system required to make the two vessels join together, so they didn't plan to carry out a transposition. Enjoying your videos, and looking forward to seeing a Soviet victory in the Space Race.
Hi, I might be a little bit late to the party, but I think Pavel and Gherman could have reached orbit, and even perhaps the Moon if they had adopted a different piloting style. As other comments under this video have pointed out, performing your burn with a bigger angle allows you to buy time before atmospheric reentry, during which you can add more horizontal velocity. I thus tried to do a simulation to see if reaching orbit was possible under such conditions, and I found out that it was possible, with 787.55 m.s^-1 of deltaV still remaining in stage 6. With the extra 2149 and 1502 from stages 5 and 3, you would have 4438.55 m.s^-1 of deltaV, enough to leave Earth's SOI, so you could at least fly by the Moon. I am not sure, however, that you could have got into an orbit of the Moon and could have gone back to Earth. Here are the parameters I used: I assumed the radius of the earth to be 6371 km, which is the value that most often arises in flat-earth debates, and the gravity at sea level to be 9.80665 m.s^-2. The Kerman line seems to be 140 km high with the mods you use, as the change of color at 32:51 on the video suggests. I added an extra 5km margin, so the rocket flying under 145km would be considered a failure. Around 32:18, at 6'00" time elapsed since launch, Pavel and Gherman take back control of the rocket, with its nose being pointed at a reasonable angle above the horizon, so I took it as the starting point of the simulation. At this time the UI shows a TWR of 0.32 for the current stage 7, I assumed the current acceleration was then exactly 0.32*9.80665 m.s^-2, so 3.138128 m.s^-2. To be consistent with the 2940 m.s^-1 remaining deltaV and the 10'21.3" remaining burn time also shown in the UI, the value of the specific impulse of stage 7 engines was then forced to be approximately 338.17317085648 s (assuming constant thrust and fuel consumption). In the same way, I took the value of 4.6091255 m.s^-2 for the acceleration at the start of stage 6, with a specific impulse of 351.65732341946 s. I also assumed an interval of 10 seconds between the cutoff of stage 7 engines and the start of stage 6 engines to avoid an unfortunate explosion. The initial vertical velocity is shown to be 393.98 m.s^-1 at the top of the screen, and the horizontal velocity displayed is the one with respect to the ground, which is not the one relevant here. So I used the value of 4359 m.s^-1 of the orbital velocity and the Pythagoras theorem to get the value of the initial horizontal velocity. The wall of numbers below give the pitch angle of the rocket, the horizontal and vertical velocities of the rocket and the altitude above sea level each 30 seconds of the simulation.

I might be a little off with some parameters, especially the acceleration of the rocket since the TWR was displayed with a bad precision, but I think that it wouldn't prevent reaching orbit with the true parameters. So a lack of proper training for piloting rockets in the specific case of low thrust to get to orbit is what actually killed the brave kerbonauts. Hopefully, their successors will learn from their mistakes and go to the Moon, or even beyond. May the fallen ones rest in peace.

Are you SURE Rodina 2 splashed in the Caspian Sea? Because that looked an awful lot like Crete and then the coast of Turkey, who may or may not have given your cosmonauts back considering they were in NATO. Still great content, 11/10. Also what are the chances of randomly finding a small probe in such a huge empty environment?
I must disagree with the statement "Venera 4 took the first photosof venus's surface". While it is true that Venera was the 1st probe to reach venus's surface (Successfully, at least), the 1st images of said planet's surface were taken by explorer 10, as it penetrated the cloud (& sent pictures) layer before losing comms (I'm talking about FAK, not real life)
So how do you get those TV camera shots (the ones from the camera parts on your probes)? I have a lot of those same part mods you have downloaded, but the camera parts don't seem to do anything for me. Am I missing something?
Comrade I’m from glorious Ministry of Soviet defense. I work on many glorious submarines. Tell me comrade have you ever consider a space torpedo to slow down those pesky Americans.

Not a criticism in any shape or form, but wondering if you don't use Holst's 'The Planets' for copyright reasons? Is there no creative commons version?

This deceleration death seems a bit over the top. There was a real Soyuz abort from about 5km/s and the crew survived. Maybe you would want to review your g-tolerance settings.
Not trying to criticize your gameplay, or rub salt in the wound, but if you weren't trying to get to the moon, could Rodina 4 have aborted safely? Either by immediately separating the capsule, or by burning Blok G and D at angle that would slow your descent?
Nope. The problem was deceleration. Atmospheric drag would have prevented any sort of turn around to retrograde with any of the stages. Beardy's hope by continuing to burn prograde, was to get more, and thinner atmosphere to slow down the descent more gradually, betweeen his kerbals and their inevitable demise... suffice to say, that engine failure happened at the worst, possible moment.
@@HALLish-jl5mo The main problem is how much time you have before impact. If you don't have enough time to bleed off velocity safely then you'll be dead no matter what you do. If he burned retrograde he would have only reduced his horizontal velocity by a little bit, still having all the potential energy from being so high up. That potential energy will convert into kinetic one way or another so that's why he had no choice but to keep burning prograde to try and achieve a gentler reentry trajectory. Extreme g-forces will still be present unless you ensure that your reentry is gentle, spread out over time.
It feels like the n1 is just cursed to be unreliable no matter what.
fate does NOT want to see an N1 land on the moon lmao. Poetic timeline realignment.
The number of engines clearly didn't help
@@dimanyak373 well, on the real N1 it was actually the failure suppression system. Something isn't perfect? Shut down every engine.

I might be a little off with some parameters, especially the acceleration of the rocket since the TWR was displayed with a bad precision, but I think that it wouldn't prevent reaching orbit with the true parameters.
So a lack of proper training for piloting rockets in the specific case of low thrust to get to orbit is what actually killed the brave kerbonauts.
Hopefully, their successors will learn from their mistakes and go to the Moon, or even beyond.
May the fallen ones rest in peace.
As always your videos have me on the edge of my seat! I'm sure we can make up for lost.time in the next one!
Very very very sad ending!
Hope this lifts off the whole program and not be a stop to any space activity!
hell yeah, been waiting for this one!
Damn you N1!!
Hopefully their deaths won't be in vain, and you can pull of the moon landing.
Having 2/6 functioning engines and jettisoning the LAS for minuscule delta V savings is a very...interesting decision lmao
Edit: wow 4 N-1 launches in 1 video is crazy impressive! But also RIP Gherman and Pavel Kerman they will be remembered by the motherland
Knock over the Mayflower just to stablish superiority
27:34 Mayflower: "zzzzzz"
Lunokhod 1: "What's this?"
Mayflower; " WHAT THE HECK!?!?"
Lunokhod 1 pulls out weapon
Lunokhod 1: "You landed first. YOU WILL ALSO BE ENDED FIRST"
I already miss Pavel Kerman :c (I thought you named Pavel after the Star Trek character)
Same!
rip
I'm coming to this in 2024 and obviously you know what comes after... But Chin up, carry on, and go kick ass. Be the best Penguinaught you can be!! You need a Sergeant to kick your ass and motivate you, come to me! I got faith in you bro!
Beardy If you make a N-II can you use a Nuclear Second stage like the Soviets Intended too
Man, that first stage failure on the first N-1 launch of the video. That's the exact same failure that destroyed one of the real N-1s.
Anyone else find it pants on head stupid that the algorithm put a medical abortion context thing on this video just because it has Abort in the title?
Yeah I had a good laugh at that
@@jellybeaniac152 I hate these algorithm driven context things
the 3 n1s ended up like the real ones.
atleast gherman and pavel can get a propper burial
n1 first stage strapped to the side of a UR-900 when?
Rip Pavel and Gherman
RIP Pavel
RIP Gherman
I Cannot wait to see who lands in the mun first
the mun doesn't exist in this universe.
@@Destroyer_V0 my bad, your right
@@walnutcloud That being said. if they did somehow manage to do some stargate BS to get to kerbol, and then launch to the mun? I dunno.
Are you SURE Rodina 2 splashed in the Caspian Sea? Because that looked an awful lot like Crete and then the coast of Turkey, who may or may not have given your cosmonauts back considering they were in NATO.
Still great content, 11/10. Also what are the chances of randomly finding a small probe in such a huge empty environment?
hello Beardy great series
I must disagree with the statement "Venera 4 took the first photosof venus's surface". While it is true that Venera was the 1st probe to reach venus's surface (Successfully, at least), the 1st images of said planet's surface were taken by explorer 10, as it penetrated the cloud (& sent pictures) layer before losing comms (I'm talking about FAK, not real life)
This series is great. Will it end once someone lands on the moon or will you keep going For All Mankind style?
Answering very late but the series is planned to end with the first Mars landing
N1 is a cursed rocket, both in game and irl.
Well it may be 2:17 AM in the Morning and I really should be sleeping buuuut uh I guess sacrifices will have to be made.
YESSSS
5:50 is a beautiful failure
Nice Video 😁👍
Is this a video that doubles as a video for the Sputnik anniversary?
Yes
Rodina 1 was clearly an unmanned test of the launch escape system, no idea what these amerikanskis are talking about!
Omg yesssss
31:42 The third stage, with the NK-39's fails, is my guess.
Im disappointed you didn't try to push the mayflower over just out of pettiness
been a long time since you lost a kerbal
... Ouch. 😖
ABORT!? WHAT!?
Does the series end at the mun landing or can we expect to get more mission maybe to Mars and such?
It's gonna go far beyond the moon landings
@@jesusramirezromo2037 Oh okay, that's relieving, cuz this series is way too good to end so soon.
So how do you get those TV camera shots (the ones from the camera parts on your probes)? I have a lot of those same part mods you have downloaded, but the camera parts don't seem to do anything for me. Am I missing something?
@@wrath908 I add those effects in post, that isn't how those camera parts look, though you can achieve similar effects with the Reshade mod
Beardy! Surely the N2 will have 60 engines on Blok A?
Da Comrad
RIP Pavel o7
Comrade I’m from glorious Ministry of Soviet defense. I work on many glorious submarines. Tell me comrade have you ever consider a space torpedo to slow down those pesky Americans.
I figure after beardy gets to lunch the Buran space shuttle. There are not gonna be spacecraft for him to mirror
And he is gonna go crazy with his ideas aint he. (Just like the soviets)
I realy hope carnasa wins because that would be stupid lol
Damn, sabotage anyone?
Nope, just N1's engine unreliability.
Quit killing Kerbals!

Rodina Program started in true soviet Spirit :)
Fun fact, the US has milled more astronauts than the USSR...
I wonder if there's anyone left alive from the original Soviet team who could watch this series? Or NASA for that matter... It would be awesome to have their reaction and comments.
You really have to change engines on N1 to entirely different ones.
Only the 3d stage, the rest are now upgraded
what mod are you using that adds grid fins?
Soviet rockets by raidernick I'm assuming
R.I.P
Not a criticism in any shape or form, but wondering if you don't use Holst's 'The Planets' for copyright reasons? Is there no creative commons version?

That didn’t come from for all mankind, it was an actual speech written in the scenario an astronaut on the moon dies.
the one in the show is different from the original speech written for nixxon, sorry but i know my stuff
Omg if the American's don't have a launch failure I'm going to cry it just seems rigged lol
Why did it add context for what an abortion is lmao 💀
heres hoping n9 has massive failures
This didn't really age well
@@deanmilos4909 he won didnt he?

07 Pavel and Gherman
This deceleration death seems a bit over the top. There was a real Soyuz abort from about 5km/s and the crew survived. Maybe you would want to review your g-tolerance settings.
why is no one talking about the youtube context? lol
I think it's cause he had to abort the mission lok
@@mrmaverick007 I know, but i just thought it was funny how one could butcher the term "abort" so badly
Oh no! Hope this isnt the fall of the CCCP
RIP
Still waiting for lunar-Buran
Not trying to criticize your gameplay, or rub salt in the wound, but if you weren't trying to get to the moon, could Rodina 4 have aborted safely? Either by immediately separating the capsule, or by burning Blok G and D at angle that would slow your descent?
No, The rocket didn't even get to Orbit, would of been the same result
Nope. The problem was deceleration. Atmospheric drag would have prevented any sort of turn around to retrograde with any of the stages. Beardy's hope by continuing to burn prograde, was to get more, and thinner atmosphere to slow down the descent more gradually, betweeen his kerbals and their inevitable demise... suffice to say, that engine failure happened at the worst, possible moment.
@@jesusramirezromo2037 What about flying backwards? Burn retrograde, so there’s less velocity to kill, and less g-forces?
@@HALLish-jl5mo The main problem is how much time you have before impact. If you don't have enough time to bleed off velocity safely then you'll be dead no matter what you do. If he burned retrograde he would have only reduced his horizontal velocity by a little bit, still having all the potential energy from being so high up. That potential energy will convert into kinetic one way or another so that's why he had no choice but to keep burning prograde to try and achieve a gentler reentry trajectory. Extreme g-forces will still be present unless you ensure that your reentry is gentle, spread out over time.
rather random i know, but have you read project hail mary? if not you should read it, its amazing.
Yep, I enjoyed it but it wasn't as good as Andy Weir's previous work imo
@@TheBeardyPenguin ok cool, best book i have ever read imo, but i have not read the martian yet. also thanks for replying! (best of luck with uni btw)
