The Kerbin-departure stage of an N1-C in parking orbit. The Soyuz 9K-LOK "Kestrel" CSM is visible, with a next-generation LK vehicle still protected under the second set of fairings.

Well don't just sit there, show us what's under the fairings!

Shroud and stage jettisoned...

Powered descent with a new "crasher" stage...

Seven seconds from touchdown...

Safe on the surface.

And while we're at it, how about upgrading the N1 for enhanced flight performance?

Orbital craft. Some historical. Some not so much.

Old! Screw that! This thread is never too old! I mean, the last post was only... oh. Four months ago. Well, no matter. I'm posting here anyway.

What's better than a 'Salyut' station? In the mid-'60s? Two 'Salyut' stations! I present to you, 'Zemlya!'

Glorious 'Proton-FGR' rocket launch vehicle of the Soviet Union! Tremendous upgrade over ageing 'Proton-K' rocket! With 2.5 metre core instead of 1.875 metre, and asparagus-staged boosters rather than inefficient old clustered core! Отлично!

Отличный booster separation of the glorious 'Proton-FGR!' Rest in peace, simple 1.25 metre booster! You have served your country proud! You are glorious hero of the Soviet Union!

*Scoff* Korolev would not be proud! Begone, foul boosters!

Here is tremendous first stage separation and second stage ignition!

Fairing jettison! Красивая! Observe brilliant Soviet engineering marvel, new DOS station core! Upgrade over dusty old 1.875 metre DOS 'Salyut' cores! New 2.5 metre core, and monopropellant maneuvering engines! DOS Mk2, the 'Zemlya' module of new 'Salyut-1!'

Glorious rendezvous and docking of brand-new DOS module! Valentina and Erillian Kerman, great heroes of the Soviet Union, aboard to oversee docking procedure!

Closer... and closer... and -- давай! I can't wait any longer! Full throttle!

Brilliant 'Zemlya' DOS module docks to 'Salyut-1,' glorious Soviet achievement!

Solar arrays deployed! Marvel at this glorious Soviet engineering and tremendous space station! Отлично!

More is to come later in time.... but first, KAS/KIS struts!
