NK-33, and NK-39 rocket engines.
NK-33 was for the N1, (with the NK-43 high altitude version).
The NK-39 was developed for the advanced N-1F, stage 3 (Block V). It could be restarted.
Yes, this is another Patreon plug, yawn.
But consider this: if we had a dollar for every time someone told us our comic made them laugh, our livelihood would be ensured and we wouldn't need a Patreon.
Unfortunately, laughter is not legal tender in any country we've checked. But without it, our hearts shrivel up into sad little clumps. So, invest in laughter! Invest in us: Sign up for secret comics, behind the scenes stories, early access, and more laughs.

When the vote came at 2:14 a.m., the overflow room to the City Council chambers roared with cheers. The 50 or so people who remained in the building represented a small portion of the hundreds who showed up for the vote. The meeting began at 6 p.m., but demonstrators started gathering in front of the city hall at around 3 p.m. Citizens who showed up to testify were overwhelmingly against the proposed data center. There were 125 people who signed up to speak in the citizen comment section of the meeting, and another 57 who signed up talk during the public hearing portion. Fort Worth-based Highlander SM One LLC proposed to build the data center on a 200-acre site on Francis Harris Lane between San Marcos and New Braunfels, next to the Hays Energy Power Station. Speakers came from all parts of Hays County, where droughts and water shortages have been felt for years. “You are either going to greatly harm your relationship with your community or you’re going to buckle down and work with us and come up with an alternative which we are all willing and eager to help you on,” Torrie Martin, who lives on a ranch next to the proposed data center, told the council. Data centers are large buildings filled with computer equipment that supports things like cloud storage and artificial intelligence and typically use huge amounts of water and energy. Developers had touted the jobs their proposal would bring to San Marcos and made some concessions on things like water use at the site. Tap the link in our bio to read more.
