    Can we just relish the fact, that USSR/CCCP managed to - more or less blindly - land a vehicle on mars at 2nd attempt, setting the template for all future landings?
    Well-produced and well-told, thanks for the good work! Ending was a bit abrupt, though! :) Would have liked to know more about why the failure etc, since the archives were scrounged when the Soviet Republic collapsed....

      It shows how competition entoxicates the science and all the other stuff. No sharing of informations and no really help.
      The US gov tried as well for the space progam the socialistic model of a public project in science and production. Companies were included like in a public, sharing of everything process and the rescources were used after they were available, not after the crazy artificial cost.
      Of course the german scientists like v Braun were extremely useful, or lets say decisive(He had his success as well in a public national cooperative-supportive system before).
      The SU had accidential tried once in their progam two a bit competing scientists projects, that shared not so much(information and rare stuff). So they were slower and less efficient like normal capitalistic big companies.

    Only people on the fringes still thought there were canals on Mars before any flybys or landings in the 60s. In the early 1900s better telescopes had shown the canals not to be so visually and spectroscopy had shown that there simply wasn't enough water there.

    "our closest planetary neighbor." Incorrect. At :55 seconds in. Venus is our closest planetary neighbor. The USSR also landed a probe on the surface of Venus. Further, you could make a case that 'on average' Mecury is closer to the Earth than Mars.

    I'm 59 and grew up during the US-Soviet space race. Of note is that the US/NASA always covered its space launches and missions live on TV while the Soviet missions were always a secret until/unless they were successful. If successful, the world would hear about it in the news after the fact. During the space shuttle years, the US/NASA did have numerous missions that were entirely for the Department of Defense. We knew from the news that these missions occurred, but there were no details as to the specifics of those missions. Even to this day, I don't believe that much is known to the public about those NASA/DOD missions.

    When you say Kazakhstan, it reminds me the need for rockets to launch from as near to equator as possible. When countries part with RuSSian federation, Kremlin is losing ground to keep launching its stuff (if they had any at this point). We could see how their attack on Moon ended last year. It wasn't a normal mission that is planned and worked on for years and years. It was a sudden decision to prop up the opinion of public when everything has been failing.

    Ohh, I guess this means that we must be sharing space on Devon Island with the Russians so that they can also provide their people with beautiful footage of their exploits on "Mars".

    If the Soviets were so secrative... Why are we to believe that all of their missons were a failure?

    2.9 diameter heat shield doesn't describe anything.

    The Russian products demonstrate that it has highly qualified and innovative research and development activists. At times when one hears of USA as Americans distorts the fact that such nomenclature supposed to cover North and south America.

    The next Mars spacecraft should try to avoid landing on alien habitats; they 👽 could take it the wrong way. 😆

    Just think how ridiculous this is.
    The Russians can keep boats afloat or planes in the air

    It's unfortunate, even tragic, that instead of the working together if brilliant people, albeit from different countries, the government of these countries instead competed and fought against each other because of foolish political ideals. If only people strive to pursue common interests in making a better world through science and technology, and not try to kill each other militarily.

    It's funny to hear him talk about how few people knew how a parachute behaved, and least of all the Soviet scientists knew about it. It sounds as if, for example, scientists from Sweden or Ethiopia knew more about the behavior of a parachute on Mars than the Soviet scientists who were going to send this device there. Hey, Ivan, let's send a parachute there, because we know less than anyone else on earth about the behavior of a parachute on Mars. and so I called my mother (she was young at the time) and asked if she had heard about the Martian ship. she replied that the news was on the radio and in the newspapers. and about a year later a detailed article about the flight of this device appeared in a scientific journal. turns out you're lying
