[FPSPACE] NK on the pad

[Sergey V. Andreev]

It's better not to read books but write.
The info must be taken from initial sources- documents and people.
Conserning august desision on PS-1 I prefere to believe Yangel who spoke just 
about that time.

sincerely yours
ASV


p.s. What satellite! the main problem was to deliver nuclear charge!
