it exploded in the air after launch 5 times I don't think there would be any feasible way to make it work

Honestly the N1 was tuff, they should build it with five engines instead of 30 so that it actually has a chance of getting more than 50 meters off the ground without one failing and blowing the entire thing up

>>3699340I mean starship has 36 engines now and it havent blown up once.

>>3699070Too many motors. SpaceX might be able to get one to work, they have similarly huge numbers of motors on some rockets. It would be funny if Elon did one just for laughs and to flex on dead communists.

>>3699352Why not build one with 5 M-1 engines

Did they ever finish the M-1? Thing is huge, and I've seen F-1s at Houston before

>>3699375No they realized F-1 mogged the M-1 engines in thrust level so they canned the entire project.

>>3699375But i would rather use 33 Nk-33 engines
For the first stage.
