#saturn5
Note that Saturn5 was the last good american rocket from the "government". And also that was mostly built via contractors like Boeing.

After 1982 they have not developed new rockets.

And is it sane for governments to waste money in a "race"?

Competition is normal for private companies, though.

Jared wants the Moon base to happen. And he wants the waste out.

Artemis design is broken/slow/wasteful. And the goal to build a base should not be compared to "apollo2" of China.

China plans to launch two tiny crafts to the moon with two "saturn5" rockets.

Nonsense.
Nothing of Saturn5 was reused.
Everyrhing was wasted.

SpaceX is planning to reuse the whole starship system. It is the only operator reusing rocket stuff.

Only HLS does not seem to be reusable at the moment.

per colpa di questi stronzi non sono riuscito ancora a vedere il Saturn5 e gli Shuttle, gli unici veri motivi di interesse per gli USA, ma non finisce qua.

mi piange solo il cuore di non poter andare a vedere il Saturn5 e gli Space Shuttle dal vivo, ma me ne farò una ragione. per me possono scomparire come meta turistica.

Every day last year I drew a portrait of someone on their birthday using my non dominant left hand to help maintain brain function and to see how much I improved.

Saturn5 use the same technology that was developed in previous projects. It had launch issues but not full destruction. And it flew only 14 times.
Falcon9 use also the same technology. It has roughly 1 failure vs 500 success.

No doubt,the early days were full of their own spectacular failures. I’m thinking more of dedicated moon rockets, Saturn1B & scaling up to SaturnV. Woops missed Saturn1(all unmanned).
S1: 10 all ✅
S1B: 9 all ✅ (bar Apollo1)
Saturn5: 14 ✅
Where is Musk at, testing V2’s at White Sands in 1946?

#Earthrise, or my version of it from #Alabama. US #Space & #Rocket Center, #Huntsville. 6/2/25.

Yet another shot I’m really happy with from #RocketCity.

Tom Mueller is the designer of Merlin (Falcon9) and Draco (Dragon capsule) engines.

I doubt Merlin has anything in common with the F1 engine of the Saturn5, other than the fuel cycle (RP1).
Same for the Draco and lunar lander engine (hypergolic).

Day 61
#Saturn5 by #InspiralCarpets (1994)

I was a DJ for four and a half years, playing rock music. This was the last track I played. Although not my normal genre area it was still a great track and one I'm still happy with as a final track.

IMO, Falcon Heavy is at the low-end of heavy lift spectrum. That's 30...60 tons to LEO.

Saturn5, SLS, Starship, N1 and Energia are at the super heavy lift (100t) gategory.

No human has ever been to the moon. The amount of fuel needed is prohibitive, and the radiation shielding isn't effective enough for a moon landing. #moon #fake #Saturn5
NASA website axes a pledge to land a woman and a person of color on the moon
In deference to President Trump's anti-DEI order, the space agency has removed a promise to send the "the first woman, first person of color" to walk on the moon aboard the Artemis III mission.
