Proton (rocket family )

Proton is an expendable launch system used for both commercial and Russian government space launches.  Proton initially started its life as a  ICBM. It was designed to launch a 100-megaton (or larger) thermonuclear weapon over a distance of 13,000 km   but due to its huge size it was never deployed in that role. The first Proton Launch was made in 1965. During the first five years of operation, it experienced dozens of failures . Modern versions of the launch system are still in use making it one of the most successful heavy boosters.
