2006年1月27日 · But the full Saturn V, remember there were more versions, was 7.5 million lbs thrust from liquid propellant and the STS is 7.7 million lbs thrust, 6.6 million of that coming from the SRBs, although again you have to then take a number of factors into account.

2024年11月15日 · A compilation of Apollo Saturn V launches from NASA engineering and documentation cameras. Most of the engineering footage was recorded in slow motion using high speed 16mm film cameras during Apollo 8, 11, and 12 to document and analyze the missions. The first shot was captured using 70mm film.

2020年6月25日 · It would have tested all the components before the Saturn V flew (F1 and J2 engines, IM, etc) and had the option of using a two-launch scenario of launching the CSM separately, with the Saturn V launching a larger LM unmanned. And, launching lunar logistic modules directly. (Or could have spared the Saturn V entirely using multiple launches.)

2014年12月28日 · Everyone who flew on a Saturn V reported that, for the first minute or so of first-stage flight (while the vehicle was responding to the acoustic shock reflected from the ground), the ride was quite rough, with a lot of little steering inputs and a general vibration level that made it difficult to read the instruments.

2025年3月18日 · 6.cNot just Blue, but just the SpaceX Superheavy booster is more powerful than a Saturn V first stage. If NASA wanted to replicate Saturn V, then they could use a Superheavy booster from SpaceX, and upper stages made from BE-3U Blue Origin engines. A cluster of 10-12 on a second stage, but also 2-3 on a 3rd Stage. 7.

2011年4月11日 · The Saturn V is just a launcher -- it can't service the Hubble Space Telescope -- but just from a launcher vs launcher standpoint, we could evaluate the costs this way: There are various ways to count costs: marginal cost of adding another flight, average cost over a period of time, total costs of ownership (sum of all development, support and ...

2017年5月29日 · Still on my reading list is David Woods' "Saturn V Owners' Workshop Manual" (see attached jpg for the table of contents). I recently finished "How Apollo flew to the moon" by Woods, and liked the level of detail and focus on explaining various procedures quite a lot.

2015年3月17日 · In perfect hindsight, could a simplified design be applied to Saturn V to make it cheaper to operate and potentially reusable? My own thinking on this was to have a 2-stage RP1/LOX vehicle by adjusting the Saturn V as follows: - Keep the first stage, extend it if necessary. - Make F-1 engines restartable. - Add landing legs.

2020年4月5日 · i'm interested payload gain on Saturn V were fins are removed. Page 17 of the PDF attached to this post specifies 2054 lb for "nonmoveable aerodynamic control surfaces" on the S-IC stage. I suspect that removing them might have increased payload by a couple of hundred pounds: first stages aren't terribly weight sensitive, since the weight is ...
