Nice documentary, but there is some essential innacurracy. First, NK-33 was reliable from the begening, the N1 exploded mostly because of the computer system. NK-33 was made by Kuznetsov bureau indeed but not the RD-180. Second, the RD-180 is coming from the Soviet Space Shuttle program of the 80s. The space shuttle program in USSR was different from the US one. The rocket system was separated from the shuttle orbiter, in that sens, they could launch payload without the Shuttle orbiter. And on that rocket system called ENERGIA, USSR developped Hydrogen high performance engine for the maine stage, and close cycle kerosene engine for the booster, RD-170. RD-170 is a close cycle, one pump 4 nozzle engine. The most powerfull engine ever build (more the Saturn V rocket). It was high efficient for a kerosene engine, thanks to the close cycle technology from the 60s. The RD-170 is 4 nozzle, RD-180 is the same engine but with only 2 nozzle. Also there is the RD-191, the same with only 1 nozzle and use on Angara rocket. RD-180. Those engine from ENERGIA project, were developped by Valentin Glutchko bureau. Not the same bureau as NK-33. (diffrent bureau in USSR, is lilke different compagny in the US). NK-33 was indeed used on orbital rocket, but for the Antares US rocket, and send cargo payload to ISS during the 2010s. In 2024, the RD-180, initially developped during Soviet Space shuttle program, finally sended human to space, but american instead of soviet man. Ironic.
The slime-ball hit-girl strikes again: Sergei Korolev was a Soviet rocket designer who worked with German rocket scientists and technology after World War II. Korolev modified the German V-2 missile, increasing its range to about 426 miles. He led the first Soviet tests of the V-2 in 1947. The first Soviet tests of V-2 rockets took place in October 1947 at Kapustin Yar. 13 GERMAN ENGINEERS participated in the tests, among them Helmut Gröttrup, Johannes Hoch, Kurt Magnus, Fritz Viebach, Hans Vilter, Waldemar Wolff. Notice how this clever little trollop specializes in the lie of omission. She's like a next generation Lord HaHa.

Thanks for the Very interesting video.
I love this new channel
Keep it up
Excellent video !!!
thank for FHD version
This is the same video as the engines that came out of the cold
Even in these old documentaries you can tell the Americans were still trying to cope with having completely lost the space race.
The Americans didn't steal it; they were happy to buy it. :-)
But America invented Coca Cola !!
A história da desventura do N-1 e do motor NK-33 é de uma beleza singular.

🙏🙏🙏 The Russian Rocket engine technology was way ahead. Some make BMWs some make rockets.
if you know anything about it... xD They made a closed cycle engine thats it.
Soviet Union was, is and will be the best country in the world's history.
