Ive been saying this for months, if apollo continued and nasa still got funded as it was back then, we would already have a mars colony and a moon city!!

You showed a picture of a nuclear fusion reactor but said the soviets planned to build a fission reactor.

I’ve recently had your channel pop up on my recommended videos and I have to say I love your content, ive learned more information about the space race than I ever learned in school . It’s been my go to the past several days.

Korolev had numerous health problems stemming from his time in the Gulags the operation he underwent was an exploratory operation that discovered a large tumour on his colon the surgeon attempted to remove it but Korolev didn't survive. Korolev was a high profile patient even though he was not famous in his own lifetime so his Surgeon was the Russian Surgeon General Boris Petrovski

Oh we have pretty good idea what would happen if Soviets got to the moon first. It's called For All Mankind and it's absolute banger of a TV serie

[johnmcglynn]

Thanks. I was unaware of N1 launches 3 and 4.

I pay Youtube for no ads for a reason. YT should automatically skip your in-video sales pitch for those of us with Premium accounts.

The N1 seems very similar in critical path to Starship.

[dogukanatici]

i pay youtube for no ads and still here they are

[davidstepeck]

That’s all nice to say that the Soviet N1L3 rocket produced more thrust that the Saturn. One small point to make is the N1 never completed a test flight. The Soviets had twelve test flights planned, but the four flown, and I use the worn flown very lightly here, ended in failure. I bet your next video will be of the Buran, and how much better it was than the space shuttle. It flew once, was unmanned and only had two orbits before landing back on earth.

Great video, however beyond fixing the N-1 issues the Soviets would never have been able to land multiple Lunar landing modules within the same hundred mile area at the time this was happening. I actually wish the N-1 had been successful because it possibly could have caused Congress to approve the final three Apollo flights and maybe we could have performed an American/Soviet flight on one of those. Talk about history.

What happens if capsule re-entry parachutes fail do the occupants have parachutes or if they designed a ring with engines and a net

[rdelrosso]

At the 14:50 mark -- the LARGEST non-nuclear explosion in history! That's pretty Awesome.
But as for the "70 Years" reference --
-That means the Soviets began planning the Moon Base in 1953 ?
Or 4 years before Sputnik?
That's hard to believe!

[SlyNation]

These questions are probably the exact reason why we have the show 'For All Mankind'.

[robcat]

The Soviet lunar landing plan was a desperate Hail Mary thing. They had done none of the incremental testing of every component of the mission that Apollo did before attempting an actual landing.

[Allan_aka_RocKITEman]

@TheSpaceRaceYT >>> Great video...👍

[kirstin]

Okay but do we know why the rocket kept failing to launch?

[toolzshed]

We're Whaler's on the moon, We carry a harpoon,
For they ain't no whales
So we tell tall tales
And sing our whaling tune.

[NeedsLessWedge]

Thanks for insight into some history.
Looks all too familiar to todays age, all things old are made new.

[jirislavicek]

The Space Race was not really a race between the Soviet Union and the United States. It was a race between Korolev and von Braun
