The Soyuz 7K-L3 LOK was designed to launch men from Earth to circle the moon and developed in parallel to the 7K-L1. The LOK -Lunniy Orbitalny Korabl would carry two cosmonauts into orbit around the Moon, acting as "mother" spacecraft for the LK Lander, which would land one member of the crew to the surface.
