we thought about it but then we remember lemurians, get depressed get drunk and forget about space for one more day

Brazil launched a satellite some months ago, that's all I know.

Some of those Atlas Vs have been used to launch DoD satellites and Russia became butthurt about that, partially because Putin back when he first took over, had banned sales of defense-related hardware to the US, and although RD-170 engines aren't a defense-related item per-se, the use of them for DoD launches exploits a loophole there.

Of course not everyone in the US was enthusiastic either about using Russian engines to launch s33krit military payloads. The reason this happened in the end was because the Shuttle program had wrecked our ability to manufacture rocket engines, nothing new had been developed since the Apollo era.

Because it's very costly and today NASA mostly operates at low earth orbit.

>>76038518
is he kill

>>76038800
It would be darn near impossible since a lot of the details about constructing and operating them were intuitive and not written down anywhere. That knowledge is essentially lost since the people who worked on them are dead or they're in their 80s and the still living ones have probably forgotten a lot of it

That's just referring to the mechanical parts like the F-1 engines. The avionics of course would have to use modern digital hardware, the Saturn flight control computer weighed a couple hundred pounds and predated microprocessors.

France launched it. They also built it. Brazil basically bought the whole thing. Last thing we did the chinese blew, as far as I know.

Saturn V is very heavy relative to other rockets and therefore it takes more fuel for it to take the same payload into LEO.

>>76039198
Some of that weight was due to extra hardware needed to man-rate it; an unmanned vehicle would have less shit aboard.

So that U.S.A. can get a monopoly on the supply of Helium-3 and India's investment on ITER fusion reactor goes to trash.

>>76038518
Looks fun

>>76039256
Yeah Saturn V was cool but now NASA should focus on developing reusable rocket boosters to bring down the cost of going to space.

>>76042238

I'm afraid no.
10 years ago Roskosmos promised to establish a Moon base by 2015 and start a manned mission to Mars by 2027, but now they barely have enough money and qualified personell to perform simple orbital launches.

They're lucky no manned launch to the ISS has failed yet.

>>76042238
You mean will we get back on track? No idea. Probably too late, USSR finished us.

>>76042238
These all happened due to rushing unready spacecraft and trying things that were beyond what Soviet technology was capable of.

>>76042934
You don't try what you're capable until you try. Some of the soviet achiement remain to be repeated

>>76037280
it's a joke nowadays

>>76038587
As far as i know, US stopped buying RD-180s already. They are planning to start using locally designed engines in a fiew years, right after the last shipment of already purchased RD-180s.

>>76042238
they did get orbital probes and landers to Venus a whole bunch of times though

>>76044405
More of an engineering than a scientific feat since it amounted to not much more than getting back some quick pics before the probe was destroyed by extreme heat and pressure. NASA never bothered with Venus landers, instead preferring orbiters and radar mapping. But then, Soviet technology wasn't up to the task of radar mapping Venus anyway.

>Of course not everyone in the US was enthusiastic either about using Russian engines to launch s33krit military payloads. The reason this happened in the end was because the Shuttle program had wrecked our ability to manufacture rocket engines, nothing new had been developed since the Apollo era

During the 80s, production lines for the Rocketdyne engine family that formed the basis of the engines used on the Saturn, Atlas, and Delta families were closed down in anticipation of abandoning disposable LVs altogether, but after Challenger they were forced to restart production (the Aerojet engines used in the Titan vehicles were still in production for the time being). The shuttle main engines were also produced by Rocketdyne and shared a basic design, but were too complex and expensive to be suitable for disposable LVs. Of course, all of these designs also dated back to the 50s-60s,

So it was ultimately poor management of the US space program that led to this situation.

>>76038587
TBF most spy satellites launched in 2000- were probably intended to look at Mudslime cunts rather than Russia.

>>76038498
That one happened because improper, low-grade alloys were used that allowed the third stage LOX pump to disintegrate. They discovered that factory records at the Khrunichev plant had also been falsified.
