Zond 7B

  1969-F10


The 11F92 No. 5 (L-1S No. 5) spaceship was the test payload on N-1 5L, the second N-1 test launch. At launch, one engine failed and caught fire, and it and three others were automatically shut down. However, at 100 m above the pad, the remaining engines shut down except one, and the N-1 fell back to the pad and exploded. The plan was a circumlunar flight.
