Looks fake, that doesnt seem possible

I heard somewhere that the engineering that went into the primary stage is lost technology.

NASA really does need a bigger budget, with all the advancement wrought from space and whatnot
Daniel Clark
Gotta get that wall and drone money from somewhere.
Isaac Reyes
Th is pic is so old
We have GSLV MK III now with cryogenic propulsion
William Campbell
>cost
If you account for inflation, each saturn V launch cost about a Billion dollars.
Adam Ortiz
You could literally build 3 walls at the border with the entire project cost.

> 1.16 Billion dollars
That's the entire budget ofSRO programme

russians still use their soyuz
William Jackson
that is still literally fucking nothing compared to the hundreds of billions we put towards other useless shit

buran >>>>>>>>> shuttle
don't @ me
Ian Cruz
I agree.
But some people, especially politicians, are not that forward minded. Justifying the cost would be difficult out of the cold war.

how can the falcon 9 1.1 be more heavy than the delta IV?
Benjamin Rivera
Look at all that trash humanity shot into space
Kayden Cox
It uses Kerosene, Delta IV uses hydrogen
Jaxon Robinson
thanks

Private industry is where it's at.
NASA is still very important, and will always be remembered.

They even did the Space Shuttle better than the americans
Andrew Cox
it's a shame that their economy was so much weaker.

Sputnik and Vostok look KINO as fuck
Dylan Reed
you morons spent 141 billions on vietnam war and gave up on space the very moment USSR dissolved simply because it was nothing more than a rival and not actual objective for you
Joshua Edwards
they no longer invest much money in the NASA, they prefer invest in a magic wall
Xavier Jones
Credit where it's due, Russians are pretty good at designing things that shoot
Thomas Thomas

Didn't the Russian space shuttle fail miserably?
The shuttles are rotting in some old soviet hangar no?
Dylan Fisher
it was a rocket for Project Apollo
and Project Apollo is over

The buran started flying when the USSR started falling. the first 3 flights failed but the 4th one went absolutely perfectly as they had worked out the kinks, but they couldn't continue it bc of the collapse of the USSR
Carson Mitchell
buran have success flight in full automatic mode btw. but ceased due 2 lack of moneys
Brandon Richardson
We should bring it back desu

we're going back to the moon soon, but Saturn V is super inefficient for our standards today. we'll use things like Falcon Heavy for unmanned payloads and Starship for people. This time it won't be "ok i touched the moon kthxbye", now the goal is to make a moon base
