Imagine the US's lunar lander engine fails, given its one time ligthing, and have to ask the USSR to rescue their astronauts with the backup LK landers
Absolutely agree. I love Eyes turned Skywards, Kolyma's Shadow, Boldly Going; A History of an American Space Station, Right Side Up; A History of the Space Transportation System, and a ton of other fantastic space-centric alternate timelines, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on them!
if you did space alt histories, eyes turned skyward, proxima (which has a soundtrack, by the way) eyes turned skyward and small steps giant leaps would be excellent topics to cover
Sadly it seems the RP-1 does not account for POGO, which is an oscillation which travels up and down the side of the rocket because of the shaking from the engines. Just like waves at sea, sometimes there is a convergence of vibration (waves) which threatens the structural stability of rockets. If this aspect of engineering were taken into account, it would require further engineering and testing. I would surmise that perhaps this aspect is simulated in the testing phase of rockets in RP-1.
Not impossible, imagine N9 loosing one of test Katurn V, desperately asking Carnasa for funds to rush build another in exchange for 1 seat in lunar mission, that mission launching, and successfully landing on Moon, just to realize, they cannot go back due to malfunction/deltaV. then Carnasa could talk to soviets to "borrow" their unmanned lander to escape for exchange for science.
I love watching this series - it's so entertaining. The models you have built are awesome and I love how your race against N9 is so neck and neck. As always - all the best with your ongoing studies too. Do you plan to do any joint missions with N9 or Carnasa - like the ASTP?
@@TheBeardyPenguin i put a man on the moon 1 year before you and n9 so the moon race is over it was a top secret DOD mission the first man on the moon was Charles Gordon kermen
I have some questions 1-what is the mod that gives you the soyuz/R7 rocket tanks 2-what is the multiplayer mod? 3-what is the mod that gives you the wheels of the rover? good video 👍
did Russian space program use any eva packs? just messing with this area of the timeline myself and had as an issue/question. in rp1 for some reason eva pack won't get nitrogen supply from LK lander (even if you add as resource). i know in previous episode you used the handrails (i can't seem to pull that off). but with the LK lander system, was there a plan to "dock" back with the orbiting module or just space walk? make sure you test before your attempt (I didn't notice till after landing, so the space "jump" my kerbal had to pull off was a bit risky ;PPP). amazing as always, thanks for the videos!
will the series continue after someone landed on the moon or will it end there i hope your guys will continue and maybe even go into the future from now
Since you are doing a crewed n1 mission to leo, why not replace the Lk with a probe (maybe to outer planets), and fire the stage after separating soyuz
@@TheBeardyPenguin I mean you did technically test it on this launch and if you insist on it, you can drain some fuel from the soyuz and Lk. So if the probe fits in the fairing that would be a good use for the block g and d
Thanks Madzor
Who?
@@mariasirona1622 did you even watch the first 3 secs of the video lol
@@skyethecat7366 those three seconds are largely irrrelevant
@@mariasirona1622 my bad
Imagine both Beardy and N9 are neck and neck to the moon and suddenly they find out that the United Kingdom landed first

Carnasa supremacy!!!
Plot twist: Carnasa launches a manned mission next month and beats both of you to the Moon.
Plot twist: TD Channel joins "For All Kerbalkind" and beats them all to the moon with his purest insanity
Imagine the US's lunar lander engine fails, given its one time ligthing, and have to ask the USSR to rescue their astronauts with the backup LK landers
Those rovers being folded down were so good, and Damn good looking rovers! 🎉
It'll be hilarious if N9 has to use your backup lander to get off the Moon lol.
Apollo 18
That would be awesome. In VAOS series "Solar Nations" an incident like that was a major plot point in creating the Astra Alliance!
If you like that hypothetical, check out the series "For All Mankind" on Apple TV!
@@polishkerbal6920 nice reference
20:55 love the Kraken drive train going by
9:00 closest named crater i found so far is von karmán about 10 degrees longtitude to the west
found a closer one within .4 degrees lat and 6 degrees lon Nishina crater
It would appear Nishina is the closest named crater to your landing site
Once we see the winner you guys should have a joint Lunar mission, it be cool to see how Soyuz-Apollo would perform if they actually went to the moon.
it took us 2 years but the moon is finally within our grasp
God that N-1 launch was incredibly satisfying.
Shoulda called it Dave
I should be writing my history essay right now but this is more important
This is history, alternate history.
Alternate space history timelines would be cool videos to be able to watch from you
I would LOVE an Eyes Turned Skyward Video! I've wanted to know more about it for such a long time!
Thank you Beardy for bringing the N1 to life. Epic
You do such a great job editing and scoring these videos. If I haven't said this before, I wanted to say it now.
I've been looking forward to For All Kerbalkind - thanks! :)
Damn this is getting tense. For glory!
I would be up to see some space alternate history stuff. Good vid by the way.

Another beautiful episode.
Is it bad I’m rooting for the soviets? Anyway that n1 is just amazing, these next few episodes are going to be nailbitingly close between you and n9,
Nope. We are Soviet, bum bada bumbum bum bum
No tovarisch, it's good
Depends on the context
Of course not, this is just a fun game series
You shall be greatly rewarded for your support comrade, after our glorious communist revolution.
long live our kovite motherland
20:58 hard bass train
Yes, eyes turned skyward and other space alt history please!
The n1 is the best rocket
Fun fact: "Pogoda" in Polish means Weather, and i find it funny that is is a weather satelite
... yes that's why they're called Pogoda
if you did space alt histories, eyes turned skyward, proxima (which has a soundtrack, by the way) eyes turned skyward and small steps giant leaps would be excellent topics to cover
LUNOKHOD MY BELOVED!!!!!!!!!!
also if you needed lunokhod wheels tantares has some lunokhod parts, and theres always tweakscale
@@starch_1 nah I quite liked the way the treads looked
@@TheBeardyPenguin oh, but tantares still has the rover body and circular folding solar panel
I’ve been waiting 2 years to say ‘give it treads’, and I’ve already been outmanoeuvred in the first video….
I knew there'd be at least one :P

You should get a fourth content producer to play Zambia just for the lols
It should be Matt lowne, just for him to roll kerbal down the hills of earth
Eyes Turned Skyward is GREAT!
Yes! The radioactive bathtub! Lunakhod.
Waiting for Carnasa to somehow get to the moon first

Ah yes, the Space Clarinet.
The rovers opening the solar panels look like toilets

You should paint your manned lunar lander green. Make it look like Starbug from Red Dwarf
You do appear to have a lot of luck with N1s, not just in KSP 😅
(tips avionics bay) m'lady
The race is finally getting hot
It's a weather satellite to monitor the blue storm.
Dint even start n9 video intro and went in here
yay new video!
US: _Better Call Werner_
Idea turn the LK you launch into a base if it is not used attach a power module on top and your good to go🌑
The LK isn't pressurised and can only support a kosmonaut for two days.. It would be a pretty crappy base
@@TheBeardyPenguin i put a man on the moon 1 year before you and n9 so the moon race is over it was a top secret DOD mission the first man on the moon was Charles Gordon kermen
Ah yes will Apollo Soyuz happen in it?
Holy shit when did you start this again damn I am going to have to re wach the hole series again
They came back in August
Rodina? That's my idea :D
I have some questions
1-what is the mod that gives you the soyuz/R7 rocket tanks
2-what is the multiplayer mod?
3-what is the mod that gives you the wheels of the rover?
good video 👍
1) RO Tanks and RN Soviet Spacecraft
2) None, we splice eachothers' craft into our respective save files using notepad++
3) Kerbal Foundries
@@TheBeardyPenguin Thank you!
Add a homing missile and shoot n9's space center

Whats the story he mentioned that use the same name as his missions will? It was written by someone on his server.
Small Steps Giant Leaps
will the series continue after someone landed on the moon or will it end there i hope your guys will continue and maybe even go into the future from now
It will continue until the 80s, ending with a mars landing
Since you are doing a crewed n1 mission to leo, why not replace the Lk with a probe (maybe to outer planets), and fire the stage after separating soyuz
..because I kinda need to test the LK, that's the point of the mission :P
@@TheBeardyPenguin I mean you did technically test it on this launch and if you insist on it, you can drain some fuel from the soyuz and Lk.
So if the probe fits in the fairing that would be a good use for the block g and d
how did you manage to get bon voyage to work with kerbal construction time
I installed it and it just worked
*shrug*
@@TheBeardyPenguin as with most mod problems, works for some, breaks KSP for others
Das a really big rocket....

Hey! Russian fan here. It's r*O*dina, not rod*I*na :D Just a small correction so it doesn't hurt my pesky russian ears
Holy shit it reminds me of that one british guy who tried to speak polish, his Bri'ish accent was fucking bad and funny
it is rOdina not rodIna
when i ry do download the mods you use for the series my game just crash, I it posebal to get some adwice to how to make it work
Everything you need is on the RP-1 install wiki
I did rss, but every time I try to launch a sounding rocket it looses communication once I turn my science on any ideas to fix?
Probably running out of electric charge? If it's a bug, ask for help on the RO discord
you could strap on some solar panels - thats what i do lol
Do you not have NK-33s yet?
No, they're a later upgrade I haven't unlocked yet
How did you solve the issue you had during the live stream?
Which one? The roll problem was solved with all the RCS ports along the second and third stages
Wait I thought Rodina means family and Slava means Fame... admittedly my russian may be more than a little rusty
I will protest against Slava, Dave is wayy better, more heroic, and more swag overall smh smh
I broke my arm yesterday and cant play ksp for 3 weeks ;-;
I couldn't play for months when I injured my back, I feel you bud :(
Hopefully FAK can keep you entertained in the meantime! Get well soon
i hate people who say first
Uh, FIRST
😡
But what do you think about people that say second or third?
Long Live the Soviet Union!!
if this gets pinned i will go to pluto in rss with 0.5 tonnes
You can actually
I know how to do that
