Summary: | Scientific and methodological approaches to minimizing the man-made impact of launches of promising
carrier rockets of the «Irtysh» type by oxygen-kerosene main liquid-propellant rocket engines of
the Baiterek rocket complex in areas of falling of the Baikonur cosmodrome are considered. The
basic directions for reducing the anthropogenic impact of the spent booster of the first stage of the
«Irtysh» type LV in the areas of falling are: determination of optimal areas for the spent booster to fall
in selected areas of the FA with the highest stability and minimum cost of works on restoring the soil
state — (A); controlled descent of the spent booster after separation from the LV to the designated
section of the fall with an accuracy not exceeding the size of the selected optimal section — (B).
To solve problems of direction A, it is proposed to create an additional information and analytical system
of the area of falling. To solve the problems of direction B, possible design solutions are proposed
based on the evaporation of non-producing liquid propellant residues in the spent booster tanks, and
using the resulting vapor-gas mixtures for controlled descent of spent booster to the designated FA
