Today, we take it for granted that the Apollo lunar landing was possible, but at the time, no one had done anything remotely like it – let alone in a craft that had never been fully tested.

The LK ("Lunniy Korabl" - Lunar Vehicle) was the Soviet lunar lander - the Russian counterpart of the American LM Lunar Module. The LK was to have landed a Soviet citizen on the moon before the Americans, winning the moon race. Because the trans-lunar payload of the Russian N1 rocket was only 70% that of the American Saturn V, the LK differed in many ways from the LM. It had a different landing profile; it was only 1/3 the weight of the LM; it was limited to a crew of one; it had no docking tunnel (the cosmonaut had to space walk from the LK to the LOK lunar orbiter). Unlike the LM, the LK did not use a separate descent stage to go from lunar orbit to landing on the surface. A braking stage, the Block D, took the LK out of lunar orbit and slowed it to 100 m/s at an altitude of 4 km above the lunar surface. From there the LK used the engines of its Block E stage to soft land on the moon. The Block E also served as the ascent stage to return the LK to lunar orbit.

Photographer- Yale Joel Time Life. REMASTERED by Dan Beaumont. Grumman.co INFO: This is an early (c 1962) module of the Lunar Excursion Module (LEM). Excursion would latter be dropped because, it made the moon landing sound frivolous. At the time this module was made the astronauts sat in seats to fly the LEM and got to the lunar surface by climbing down a rope. This LEM proved to be too heavy and did not fit well into the Saturn 5 rocket. APOLLO: "The Lunar Module story" by Grumman co. (1989) VIDEO: www.youtube.com/watch?v=vjDdu7WzjQw
