Yes, but I’m curious about the 10,000 Mosin crates it was supposedly stacked next to. I knew they were in a Soviet era warehouse after the N1 was cancelled, I just didn’t know they had Mosins in the same place.

No no no... I don't have any information that these 1960s-era Soviet rocket motors were stored next to 10,000 crates of surplus Mosin-Nagants, nor do I have information that they were stored in Turkmenistan or whatever...

But, heck, what would you think that a Soviet Siberian long term mothball warehouse where surplus rocket engines were stored might contain? I'm guessing 10,000 crates of archaic Mosin-Nagants, 560,000 rolls of very thick not quite 'flesh'-colored nylon stockings, Premier Brehznev's 1971 Cadillac Eldorado with flat cracked tires on all four corners sitting over a pool of dried motor oil residue, 246 metric tons of red paint, one paint brush, a scientific prototype military tank with a 'mind control beam' turret, eleven failed counterfeit copy attempts of the 1965 Chevy Corvair powered by modified 2-stroke tractor engines, and 250,000 rolls of canvas motivational political posters encouraging the collective student youth to vigorously meet the goals of the 1966 sorghum and okra harvest requirements as set down by the Central Committee's agricultural bureau.
