That’d be a cool place to take your girlfriend.
“Hey, babe! Wanna make out in the Death Star or in the lobby?”
LOL!
Russia does raise some very cute chicks, and obviously some with brass huevos. The WWII sniper chicks were not to be trifled with.
Clinton’s Red Chinese bud’s got alot better dope than this in Los Alamos...and they did not have to jump a fence.
There is alot more going on here than assembling rocket engines.
I think she’s hott from russia with luv lol
her website where the pics came from, too bad it’s all in Cyrillic... http://lana-sator.livejournal.com/160176.html#cutid1
The Putin FSB press services regret (tee-hee, snicker) to report that shortly before midnight gunmen forced their way into the young woman’s apartment and shot her . . . .
Best post in a long time.
Looks like an X box game background.
I can’t believe that place isn’t guarded. Some of that stuff *must* be worth stealing.
In fact this story is true. This pics made a lot of noise in Russia. Heads are rolling on technologic security. An idea is if these students made throught security why couldn’t Chicoms or CIA.
I don’t think it may help much. In Siberia they have abandoned SAC airbases with fully equipped Backfife M3 bombers and infrastrusture left to rot. You can find videos of these on youtube. It is all for Chicoms to harvest.
The picture shows the ends of the two engine test stand "exhaust" pipes. The pipes are visible in the picture just above your mystery picture. When a rocket engine is test fired the exhaust is routed down a pipe which ends in a circular chamber about 250 feet in diameter. The chamber contains a pool of water and has a large vertical stack extending upward which is visible in the exterior shots of the complex. The mystery picture shows the ends of the two large exhaust pipes which were terminated in a cluster of smaller diameter pipes some of which have rectangular baffles plates fixed to the ends of the circular sections. This approach is similar to the "mufflers" used on the turbojet engines in the 707 era (the mufflers were no longer required once fan-jet engines were developed.) The center column is the bottom of the vertical stack.
The entire structure is intended to function as a muffler to slow down and cool the rocket exhaust before discharging it to the open air. The facility appears to be in a suburb of Moscow and even if the state run enterprise didn't much care if the average citizen was deafened by the roar of the engine test, the commissars living and working within earshot probably did and were in a position to make an issue of the noise.
Saturn 5 launches generated over 200dB sound pressure level at the pad and would modulate your voice if you tried to talk some five miles away. The Russian engines tested at this facility were (are?) in the same class as the Saturn first stage engines and would be very bad for the neighborhood.

PS Our launch pads also use large quantities of water injected right onto the flame diverters. This cools the flame and protects the ground support equipment (it also gives a terrific cloud of steam before the rocket starts to move).
Is she still alive? lol
Remember the kid who stood in front of Chinese tanks? Some of the pictures have that ‘feel’...
