It also stands taller than NASA’s retired Saturn V which was 111 metres tall. The next version of the Starship, Musk said, will be about 15 meters longer and have about three times the thrust of ...

The SpaceX Starship was analyzed with up to 9 engines and 28.7 million newtons of thrust. The Saturn V had 34.5 million newtons (7.6 million pounds) of thrust at launch. The 9 engine SpaceX Starship ...

Using 33 of SpaceX’s new Raptor 2 engines, the Super Heavy booster will produce 17 million pounds of thrust at liftoff, which is nearly double that seen, heard and felt on the Artemis I launch.

First launched in 1967, Saturn V stood at 363 feet tall, generating 7.6 million pounds of thrust that enabled it to carry 130 tons into Earth orbit. Despite its age the rocket holds up well ...

SpaceX showed off three fully complete Super Heavy Booster and Starships. They each have double the thrust of the Saturn V. There is a fourth Super Heavy Starship that is nearing completion. They are ...

The Saturn V was used for the entire Apollo program, culminating in the last mission to the Moon, Apollo 17 in 1972. The big rocket was also used to launch Nasa’s first space station, Skylab, in ...

Whether you agree or not with repurposing/upgrading existing flight hardware, performance figures of 8,800,000 pounds (39,000 kN) of thrust at liftoff comfortably eclipses its Saturn V grandpa.

Beginning with Artemis IX likely not until the 2030s, a new version of the solid rocket boosters look to increase SLS’s power to 9.2 million pounds of thrust at liftoff.
