Short description: Mission by the Soviet Union to send six cosmonauts to Mars in the year 1975
The Martian Piloted Complex or MPK[1] was a Soviet Union human mission to Mars proposed in 1956-62 by Mikhail Tikhonravov. It featured a six-Cosmonaut crew on a 900-day mission, with a launch in 1975.[2][3][4] The craft would have a mass of 1,630 metric tons and land a crew on Mars for a one-year expedition. It would take 25 N1 rocket launches to assemble the MPK.
