Saturn 5

[QuantumJo]

FYI Saturn V moonrockets used two types of engines. Stage I used 5 Rocketdyne F-1 burning RP-1 (rocket propellant or highly refined kerosene) and liquid oxygen & developed 1.52 million lbs. thrust per engine...Stage II (and III) used 5 Rocketdyne J-2 burning liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen & developed only 200,000+ lbs. thrust per engine.....This buggy here needs a bigger fuel tank!

What an impressive achievement for NASA. All the men and women that worked and still work in the manned space flight program are some very fine Americans.

I agree, maybe mankind's greatest technological accomplishment yet!
