The N1 rocket was a super heavy-lift launch vehicle intended to deliver payloads beyond low Earth orbit, acting as the Soviet counterpart to the US Saturn V. It was designed with crewed extra-orbital travel in mind. Development work started on the N1 in 1959. Its first stage is the most powerful rocket stage ever built. Just like the Saturn v it consists of 3-4 stages, even though the SaturnV doesn't have a 4th stage.
If successful They would have been the first to put man on the moon, However Since the 4 launches failed its was lead to cancelation. Not only it would have been taken man to the moon but also been useful for trips to mars or even a colonization.
Since 1966 The Soyuz (Rocket Family) is a family of expendable launch systems developed by OKB-1 and manufactured by Progress Rocket Space Centre in Samara, Russia. With over 1700 Flights The Soyuz is the most frequently used launch vehicle in the world. When The Shuttle program ended in 2011 Soyuz rockets became the only launch vehicles able to transport astronauts to the International Space Station.
Its used as a launcher for the Soyuz Vehicles to transport people to the ISS. Even though Useful for carrying people to the ISS The launch Vehicle experienced some Incidents and failures from the past. In October 15 2002 while carrying the Photon-M satellite fell back near the launch pad and exploded 29 seconds after lift-off. This caused A long string of successful Launches to be broken, One person was killed during the explosion while 7 others where injured. Others incident happened in 2005 and in 2011. The latest and most recent was on October 11 2018, the Soyuz MS-10 mission to the International Space Station failed to reach orbit after an issue with the main booster. The launch escape system was used to pull the Soyuz spacecraft away from the malfunctioning rocket. The two crew, Aleksey Ovchinin and Nick Hague, followed a ballistic trajectory and landed safely over 400km downrange from the Baikonur Cosmodrome.
Point out what I did wrong on the comments and I'll fix it.
Some POV stuff. That man is much nearer to the camera than the rocket. Like 500+ meters from the rocket@TurboSnail
