  Energia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Energia was first test-launched 15 May 1987 21:30 with the Polyus spacecraft (UKSS military payload), where the Energia itself functioned well, but the Polyus failed to reach orbit due to a malfunction of its own attitude control system after separation from Energia.
Energia also replaced the "Vulkan" concept, which was a design based on the Proton rocket and using the same toxic hypergolic fuels, but much larger and more powerful.
The Energia rocket only flew twice, the first on May 15, 1987, with the Polyus military payload, and the second on November 15, 1988, with the Buran Shuttle.

 Energia!
The strap-ons of the Energia, the shuttle launcher, and the first stage of the new medium lift launch vehicle seemed to be of similar configuration - 4.5 m in diameter, 35 m long, with a fuelled mass of around 250 tonnes.
In October of 1983 it was reported that the first of the Energias had been moved to the pad "under camouflage nets" to hide its configuration.
Energia was launched on May 15, 1987 at 1730 GMT, and the strap-ons and core vehicle put the payload canister into an orbital insertion trajectory.

The universal space rocket system with super-heavy class carrier "Energia" created in the USSR between 1976-1987 became a huge step for Soviet science and technology on the way of development of the new means for space research.
This would have allowed humanity to resolve the issues of most efficient and rational problems in the areas of communication, broadcasting and environment on the basis of heavy space platforms as well as to assist in research of the Moon, Mars and other areas of Solar System.
