To anyone else curious of the current Moonshot timeline: (dw no spoilers, but it is still the timeline so be warned) 06/64 - Soviet successful uncrewed test flight 08/64 - American successful uncrewed test flight 10/64 - Soviet Failed crewed LEO flight 11/64 - Soviet Successful crewed LEO flight 12/64 - Soviet Failed crewed lunar orbit 03/65 - Soviet Failed crewed lunar orbit (RIP :( ) 04/65 - American Successful Crewed LEO flight 05/65 - American Successful Crewed Lunar flight and (assumed) Soviet Crewed Lunar flight Now onto some thoughts: This race is insanely close, and the fact that they (probably) both are ready to go for lunar landing in the same *MONTH* is astonishing, and speaks to how amazing both of them are in this. Now onto speculation: the Soviets have had WAAY more launches, atleast double, and so the likeliness that everything goes well for beardy is extremely high, atleast in terms of TestFlight. From what I remember from these videos, Beardy has also put an emphasis on single-production rockets, which despite being less cost-efficient means the Soviets will be way more capable of spitting out another N1 very, very soon. On the flip side, we know that their Baikonur launch site is pretty poorly aligned with the moon, so it will likely be atleast another month before they are ready to launch (probably about the time they need to roll out anyways so nbd). We also know that N9 has doubled down on the moon landing, so he'll probably be using all 3 build lines for Saturn V production meaning he may very well have his newest Katurn already ready to go. KSC also has a much more convenient latitude, so my money is on N9 launching extremely soon, probably no later than mid-July. N9s biggest problem is his limited number of flights (and specifically engine failures) so while I dont know the individual engine reliabilities, I would bet that they are slightly lower than the N1's right now (then again more engine=more potential problems so we will see). This is really concerning for his lander system, but then again beardy is in the same boat. Either way, this is a nail biter, and I cant wait to see what happens! Thank you all for the amazing work you have put into this cinematic and dramatic masterpiece, I'm already pumped about season 2!
keeping in mind that american LEO and Lunar orbit were achieved just a week apart, I'd guess that american lunar landing will happen within late may actually, or early june.
@@stuchris absolutely, I mostly just put the mid-July note as a worst case scenario thing. In the same boat, I strongly suspect that Beardy has been multi-queueing his latest N1's, since he had so many failures in late 64/early 65. He has already shown that his construction speed is more than capable of spitting out N1's at a somewhat similar cadence to NASA, when Beardy launched three N1s in three consecutive months in 64->65. Given that Beardys last video ended with a proton launch, I wouldnt be shocked if he had another rocket ready to go right away, so in all actuality we will likely see atleast one kerbal on the moon by early July. (For N1 at least, the Lunar orbit test took a total of 2ish weeks, so at earliest the launch would be may 24, meaning the absolute earliest landing date would be ~may 27th). At this rate, rolling out a rocket early might literally be the difference between winning the race or not, which absolutely blows my mind.
@@frankl8492 from what I understand, beardy has his points invested into one queue and N9 has his invested equally into 3 queues. beardy can build N1s incredibly fast, usually building a new one each launch afaik, though it sounds like he has built one extra extremely slowly using an additional mostly unupgraded queue, and N9 has had his Saturn V's produce slower, but output 3 at the same time after the first (meaning N9 should have the lander mission already ready to launch within a week of the lunar orbit mission, just like it was a week after the LEO mission), which is why I say late may. we can only await the next videos to know really
This really is one of the highest-quality series I've ever seen on UA-cam. At first, I wanted beardy to win, then n9 after he pulled ahead now I just love the suspense you two make with these videos, I want it to be as close as possible. Your channel is criminally underrated.
@@N9GamingOfficial I think its the effort that you put in that really sets this apart from any other game playthrough I've seen. I love the music, visuals and particularly the storyline you craft. Best of luck for the moon!
To N9, Beardy, and Carnasa: Thank you, you three, for making such an entertaining RP-1/RO series. And congratulations on getting to this point. Cheers!

It may just be me, but I'm hoping that post moon race, we stick with Apollo instead of jumping to the space shuttle. But that may just be me. I'm curious how far the Apollo, or in this case, Trinity could be pushed.
@@victor_silva6142 true, but you can't deny the idea of having a more advanced system of Apollo that evolves to become almost like an American Soyuz would be neat
This is the first of your videos I have watched. Your cinematography instincts are excellent. I do have a technical film making critique: during a sequence of any particular maneuver, whether its a space craft, an airplane, or even an automobile, it is usually good practice to use the 180 rule. This means the camera can move anywhere within a 180 degree, spherical zone of the subject, but it should never cross over into the opposing sphere. With a moving object, this 180 line is usually parallel to the vehicle's direction of movement or a line drawn front to back of the vehicle. People instinctively register the direction the space craft is moving around the planet in the first establishing shot. If you cross over the 180 line in any subsequent shot without a transition pan, it suddenly appears that the craft is now orbiting in the opposite direction. In film school you learn that the only time you can break this rule without confusing the audience is if you include a panning shot from one side of the line to the other. This way the viewer knows the camera has transitioned to the other side of the 180 line. It's a small detail, but when the 180 rule is broken it often leads to viewer confusion even if it's only at a subconscious level. I personally would make sure in an Earth orbit that the camera is always located south of the 180 line simply because people are used to thinking and viewing the Earth as north-up. I would probably use the same camera direction for any other planet or moon.
Beautiful episode! I couldn’t wait for it to come out. I probably shouldn’t play favorites, but you’re definitely my favorite of the three FAK UA-camrs. Keep up the awesome work, and win this race. Onwards! Cum trinitate ad lunam!
imagine the plot twist: carnasa lawnch 4 rocket, perform few orbital assemblies and land one the moon first. it would be awsome. (i realy want to see an european lunar crewed mission, maybe with ariane 5 or 4 and lots of docking)
@@N9GamingOfficial gotta say. The addition of sepratron on the top of the first stage, because it wasn't there IRL and was only in the cones. I was kinda iffy on it. But I love the way it looks tbh.
Carry on my wayward son There'll be peace when you are done Lay your weary head to rest Don't you cry no more... I believe that even if Penguin lands second place ... the fact TTL both Nations managed to achieve moon landings will keep the Space Race going and the kold war lukewarm...
I really hope everything goes well on the first moon landing, but... You reading the speech prepared for the president in the case of a tragedy on the moon would be quite iconic
Look amazing so beautiful, so can some one question, can bit help teach how to work with “waste and wastewater” if run out but how did worked and been keep say c20 poisoned make dead, I been trying make it get to moon but I realised I see it some “waste is been full already but should long time so can some help and thank you
hey! generally waste and wastewater doesn't effect life support really. Your c02 poisoning is happening due to scrubbers running out of their fuel, being turned off, or certain scrubber types only run for a certain amount of time - namely earlier ones. Make sure to check on your scrubbers basically!

Have you considered downloading a mod that makes it so that rockets vent oxygen on the pad like in real life? i saw a mod in a video that showcases that feature, and it would make rockets in your series feel even more real and alive.
It was an expert launch of the N1. Am still pulling for TheBeardyPenguin to land first. If I had the time I would have played the Chinese. But it's just too far down the road.
I wonder I n9 is part of the russian rocket failures. It would also be cool to see developments of recon missions in kerbal vietnam and the development of the x15 jet

I seriously need to watch the right stuff!
@@N9GamingOfficial It's not a particularly accurate portrayal of how things actually happened, but it's a fun movie and definitely worth watching.
Let's hope it lasts long enough for the sea dragon
It may just be me, but I'm hoping that post moon race, we stick with Apollo instead of jumping to the space shuttle. But that may just be me.
I'm curious how far the Apollo, or in this case, Trinity could be pushed.
Just use the Dynasoar for krewed transfer and missions. They can leave the building to dedicated lifting systems right?
@@victor_silva6142 I guess, I just personally prefer capsule designs over space planes
@@spencerconstant7997 well. Capsules are safest to reentry. You just need to calculate their trajectories and reentry profile.
@@victor_silva6142 true, but you can't deny the idea of having a more advanced system of Apollo that evolves to become almost like an American Soyuz would be neat
@@spencerconstant7997 yeah, eyes turned skywards supposedly did that and turned the apollo into a LEO ferry type of thing
I really look forward to every release by you, Beardy and Carnasa in this series. Love your attention to detail.
Truly epic. I really love FAK, thank you so much ♥️
This is nicely done, good job champ!
This is the first of your videos I have watched. Your cinematography instincts are excellent.
I do have a technical film making critique: during a sequence of any particular maneuver, whether its a space craft, an airplane, or even an automobile, it is usually good practice to use the 180 rule. This means the camera can move anywhere within a 180 degree, spherical zone of the subject, but it should never cross over into the opposing sphere. With a moving object, this 180 line is usually parallel to the vehicle's direction of movement or a line drawn front to back of the vehicle. People instinctively register the direction the space craft is moving around the planet in the first establishing shot. If you cross over the 180 line in any subsequent shot without a transition pan, it suddenly appears that the craft is now orbiting in the opposite direction. In film school you learn that the only time you can break this rule without confusing the audience is if you include a panning shot from one side of the line to the other. This way the viewer knows the camera has transitioned to the other side of the 180 line. It's a small detail, but when the 180 rule is broken it often leads to viewer confusion even if it's only at a subconscious level. I personally would make sure in an Earth orbit that the camera is always located south of the 180 line simply because people are used to thinking and viewing the Earth as north-up. I would probably use the same camera direction for any other planet or moon.
Okay that's something I'll try to keep in mind, thanks for the expertise!
Awesome! Really missed this series!
GREAT narration. Wonderful production.... bravo!
Dude, this is SUCH a great video. Great job! I'll be watching it more later but for now I'm going to go play KSP!
Beautiful episode! I couldn’t wait for it to come out. I probably shouldn’t play favorites, but you’re definitely my favorite of the three FAK UA-camrs. Keep up the awesome work, and win this race. Onwards! Cum trinitate ad lunam!
Lovely video. Good luck, and have a nice day.
Woo! Go N9!!
fuck yeah
AMERICA!!!1!

God I love your vids, cheers!
imagine the plot twist: carnasa lawnch 4 rocket, perform few orbital assemblies and land one the moon first. it would be awsome. (i realy want to see an european lunar crewed mission, maybe with ariane 5 or 4 and lots of docking)
Carnasa must go for a North Korea Landing!
I swear for all kerbal kind makes my day
Trinity III should carry a missile or two, just in case things get close again
HEY. The sepratons under the engine cones. That was my contribution made proudly by the Saturn V owner manual.
Indeed! You were one of the many who pointed me in right directions during the design, thank you! (:
@@N9GamingOfficial gotta say. The addition of sepratron on the top of the first stage, because it wasn't there IRL and was only in the cones. I was kinda iffy on it. But I love the way it looks tbh.
Nice, this 0:52 Katurn launch would have been on my birthday if it were real and if it wouldn't have been so long ago.
I cant wait until 1970s when all the planets are aligned and he does a voyager mission, he will get so much science lol
Im hoping they both land within like an hour of each other, i think that would be very funny
Like they did with Luna 8 and Mayflower?
Carry on my wayward son
There'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Don't you cry no more...
I believe that even if Penguin lands second place ... the fact TTL both Nations managed to achieve moon landings will keep the Space Race going and the kold war lukewarm...
Once i rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse behind this illusion,
I was soaring ever higher!
But i flew too high…
I really hope everything goes well on the first moon landing, but... You reading the speech prepared for the president in the case of a tragedy on the moon would be quite iconic
I just started on this game. I wish I had the knowledge and skill to make a video like this one day…
Look amazing so beautiful, so can some one question, can bit help teach how to work with “waste and wastewater” if run out but how did worked and been keep say c20 poisoned make dead, I been trying make it get to moon but I realised I see it some “waste is been full already but should long time so can some help and thank you
hey! generally waste and wastewater doesn't effect life support really. Your c02 poisoning is happening due to scrubbers running out of their fuel, being turned off, or certain scrubber types only run for a certain amount of time - namely earlier ones. Make sure to check on your scrubbers basically!
@@N9GamingOfficial but how did my scrubber basically coz my first time rss like five day ago I had new lesson and lots learn from the rss
If only they had even more agencies like isro
can we see the landing in iMAX lol
Just brilliant!
We HAVE TO land first!!!
The first time I approached the moon in RSS... just wow!
why didnt the middle engine lit up
The middle engine shuts down in flight to keep acceleration lower
Four words: I LOVE THIS CHANNEL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎃🎃
NASA Facts: Secret NASA documents reveal the real shape of the Earth!
1 - LOCKHEED SR-71 BLACKBIRD: Technical Memorandum 104330: Predicted Performance of a Thrust Enhanced SR-71 Aircraft with an External Payload:
Page 08: DIGITAL PERFORMANCE SIMULATION DESCRIPTION: The DPS equations of motion use four assumptions that simplify the program while maintaining its fidelity for most maneuvers and applications: point-mass modeling, nonturbulent atmosphere, zero side forces, and a “nonrotating Earth”.
2 - NASA Reference Publication 1207: Derivation and Definition of a Linear Aircraft Model: 08/1988:
2.1 Page 02: SUMMARY: This report documents the derivation and definition of a linear aircraft model for a rigid aircraft of constant mass flying over a “fiat and nonrotating Earth”.
2.2 Page 30: 3 CONCLUDING REMARKS: This report derives and defines a set oflinearized system matrices for a rigid aircraft of constant mass, flying in a stationary atmosphere over a “flat and nonrotating Earth”.
2.3 Page 102: 16. Abstract: This report documents the derivation and definition of a linear aircraft model for a rigid aircraft of constant mass flying over a “flat and nonrotating Earth”.
3 - NASA General Equations of Motion for a Damaged Asymmetric Aircraft:
Page 02: Rigid Body Equations of Motion Referenced to an Arbitrary Fixed Point on the Body There are several approaches that can be used to develop the general equations of motion. The one selected here starts with Newton’s laws applied to a collection of particles defining the rigid body (any number of dynamics or physics books can serve as references, e.g. reference 2). In this paper, the rigid body equations of motion over a “flat non-rotating Earth” are developed that are not necessarily referenced to the body’s center of mass.
4 - NASA: A METHOD FOR REDUCING THE SENSITIVITY OF OPTIMAL NONLINEAR SYSTEMS TO PARAMETER UNCERTAINTY: NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION WASHINGTON, D. C. JUNE 1971:
Page 12: A NUMERICAL EXAMPLE: Problem Statement: The example problem is a fixed-time problem in which it is required to determine the thrust-attitude program of a single-stage rocket vehicle starting from rest and going to specified terminal conditions of altitude and vertical velocity which will maximize the final horizontal velocity. The idealizing assumptions made are the following:
(1) A point-mass vehicle
(2) A “flat, nonrotating Earth”

he said the thing from FAM!
Is this going to be For all mankind thing?
Beacuse if it is well i'm waiting :)
We'll see what happens ;)
25:10 goosebumps
Love the music. Seems familiar to the show
Have you considered downloading a mod that makes it so that rockets vent oxygen on the pad like in real life? i saw a mod in a video that showcases that feature, and it would make rockets in your series feel even more real and alive.
Yeah there is the VaporVent mod but it honestly doesn't look that great. WaterFall actually is far more capable of creating something like this
lets go
It was an expert launch of the N1. Am still pulling for TheBeardyPenguin to land first. If I had the time I would have played the Chinese. But it's just too far down the road.
I wonder I n9 is part of the russian rocket failures.
It would also be cool to see developments of recon missions in kerbal vietnam and the development of the x15 jet
SR71 vibes!
@@N9GamingOfficial yeah lol
@@N9GamingOfficial it would be cool to see the bell uh1 recreated in this mod and some cold war jets like the f4 phantom
I want to ask something,will beardy land first so you guys will race to mars too?
We'll aim for Mars no matter who lands on the Moon first!
@@N9GamingOfficial oh,its bcs i thought this series is inspired on for all mankind
Vagueley inspired by, but nothing has been scripted to happen
Are these series reference to For all Mankind
Vaguely inspired by! (:
@@N9GamingOfficial I just started watching For all mankind and I was wondering if anyone does a similar thing in KSP! Keep up the good work, I am looking forward to new episodes!
Don't call it N1 its name is Slava!
This is true! Apologies!
A rat done bit my sister Nell

How long does it take to make videos like this?
Definetely not asking because I want to take inspiration from this series.
Planning/Building/Testing/Flying/Writing/Narrating/Editing does take a while! It varies on the complexity of the missions at hand for sure
7 months
how do you make infernal robotics work with RP1?
It need a config to place the parts in the tree is all!
Lovely skip re-entry on Trinity 2, well done.
dock your spacecrafts and land together
Danm let Gordo and Ed land
We are gonna win this race also, will you race each other to mars?
He said the series will continue after the Moon landings.
Mars will be a collaborative effort between the three of us most likely! :)
@@Carnasa OMG ITS CARNASA!!! I am a huge fan!
Random Prediction: The Soviets and the American end up choosing the same landing site and they land only a Kilometer away from each other.
Shackleton crater vibes
Thanks for the great video. What graphics mods do you use? I thought the reflections on the spaceship were especially beautiful. Sorry if this is a duplicate question.
RSSVE, and several mods that come with Realism Overhaul - those parts happen to just be very shiny!
@@N9GamingOfficial Thanks for the reply. I understand! I am very excited to use it.
What mods were used for the tanks and petal adapter? Doesn’t look like FASA
Procedural Tanks and Procedural Fairings, I made the thing myself - because I enjoy painfully long build livestreams apparently!
@@N9GamingOfficial Wait, petal adapter with procedural fairings. How? Also, how do you get the fuel cells in the ROCapsules CSM working? Or rather, how do you get them working long enough for the craft to go a whole lunar mission. mine seem to run out.
You simply attatch the fairings to robotics (: and yeah the fuel cells will run for two weeks no problem
@@N9GamingOfficial Really? And that's with the ROCapsules Service Module and kerbalism?
Yup!
What are your specs on your PC and how much does it probably cost?
RTX 3070, I9 9900k, SSDs, 32 GB of RAM, I think all in all my PC costs around 2k
@@N9GamingOfficial nice, what do you recommend as a minimum to play this mod without it being slow? I’m thinking about getting a pc but I don’t want to go over board with the cost
@@villager5633 It can be quite processor heavy, so don't cheap out on the CPU! Otherwise, something like the GTX 1080, my previous card, runs the game perfectly fine and has for years
Mission is first kerbal on the moon not the the moon and back
hype
lets goooo!!
HOLYYYYYY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT
What’s the configs for test flight on sstu
They are provided by RealismOverhaul, if at all
When will you post for n9sa again? After the landing or?
Not sure yet, there will be another video coming up sometime
It would appear that the Targaryens ain't got sht on the Kerbins. If ya kno what I mean...
Hey, what config are you using to get the BDB LM working in ro/rp1?
I made my own (: just copy pasted stuff from a few files, gave it life support, placement, etc
Capkirk's working on configs right now too, I was able to nab a WIP from their github as a starting point a while back too
@@N9GamingOfficial okay nice. Just wondering cause I had made some of my own personal BDB LM configs and they aren’t to good haha. The only thing I got working well was the LRV
real life needs a graphics update to catch up to RA
SNOOPY never had enough fuel to land and return. This was done on purpose to prevent the astronauts from taking it upon themselves to alter the mission and land on the moon out of temptation. Astronauts knew this. Now you do, too. 🙋🇨🇦
I know that about IRL Snoopy yeah! Our lander did have enough however ;)
what mod did you use to get a precise landing on episode 16?
That indicator is from Kerbal Engineer Redux
@@N9GamingOfficial what buttons do I need to press to get it to appear theres alot so its kinda confusing lol
Easy! With the mod installed, there should he a new button on the toolbar to the side of the screen. Opening that will give you a menu of various new info windows that can be toggled. One of them is labeled "Landing" and has a show/hide marker option (:
Halt ,schnell ,nein ! Nien nien ! Emergency rondevous here on the dull side of Luna ..
Is this series still being made?
Yes (:
