NASA Apollo project Saturn IB booster

The Saturn IB booster was planned in 1962 as a high-performance, low cost upgrade to the Saturn I. This was done by using the S-IVB and the IU of the Saturn V, and the existing Saturn I first stage. It was completed in only 39 months by combining the existing systems.
The Saturn IB, including the Apollo spacecraft, was 224 feet (68.28m) tall and fully loaded, weighed 1.43 million pounds (650ton). It was used for earth orbit manned missions, Apollo 1, Apollo 7, SkyLab, and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project(ASTP).

  • Nasa Saturn I/Ib Launch Vehicles Owner's Workshop Manual

    Haynes Pubns 2020-08-25 USD36.95

    The Saturn I and IB series of rockets fulfilled plans developed in the late 1950s to build a rocket which could triple the existing thrust levels of US rockets and equal the lifting capacity of the Soviet Union, launching satellites and spacecraft weighing more than 10 tonnes into Earth orbit and do it by the early 1960s. These rockets emerged from the work carried out by former V-2 technical director Wernher von Braun, working at the Army Ballistic Missile Agency in Huntsville, Alabama.

  • Saturn IB / Saturn V Rocket Payload Planner's Guide

    LM

    Periscope Film LLC 2012/06/05 USD15.40

    Developments of America's first heavy lift space rocket Saturn I, the Saturn IB and Saturn V propelled America's space program during the Apollo and Skylab eras. First launched in 1966, Saturn IB replaced the Saturn I's S-IV second stage with the more powerful S-IVB. It could carry a partially fueled Apollo Command / Service Module or fully fueled Lunar Module into low Earth orbit, allowing critical testing of these systems to be conducted long before the Saturn V was ready. It also flew one orbital mission without a payload, with the extra fuel used to demonstrate that the S-IVB's J-2 engine could be restarted in zero gravity - a critical operation for translunar injection. The Saturn IB produced thrust equivalent to 1.6 million pounds force, and could carry 46,000 pounds of payload to low Earth orbit.

It is excerpted from our special report, "Apollo and America's Moon Landing Program: Apollo 11 Countdown and Flight Plan" (ISBN 1-893472-09-4), which also includes the Apollo 11 flight plan. (If you already have that report, don't buy this one!) It is the perfect companion to our definitive reference, "SATURN V - AMERICA'S APOLLO MOON ROCKET" (ISBN 1-893472-02-7). Both are available here at Amazon. Countdown Document Contents: Description, Hazardous Area Control, Intercommunications, Operating Stations, OTV Camera Locations, List of Abbreviations, Hold Points, Precount Procedures, Final Operational Procedures, Pre-cryogenic Loading Checklists, Contingency Crew Pad Access and Evacuation Procedures, Typical Flight Event Sequence for 72 degree mission, map of blast danger area at Saturn V launch pad, bar event charts of Spacecraft Launch Closeout Plan, Radio Frequency Matrix, Saturn V Propellant Loading, Saturn V Space Vehicle Countdown. Please keep in mind that since this is an exact reproduction of an original historic NASA document, it contains minor flaws and pages with small text. The countdown document text was printed using a low-resolution computer impact printer of the kind popular in the late 1960s, which results in poorly-formed characters. (It may not be pretty, but it is authentic!) Anyone interested in the Saturn V will enjoy this unique document!

    Saturn I & IB

    Haynes Publishing 2009/12/01 USD32.95

    On July 20, 1969, US astronaut Neil Armstrong became the first man to walk on the moon. The Apollo 11 mission that carried him and his two fellow astronauts on their epic journey marked the successful culmination of a quest that, ironically, had begun in Nazi Germany thirty years before. This is the story of the Apollo 11 mission and the ‘space hardware’ that made it all possible. Author Chris Riley looks at the evolution and design of the mighty Saturn V rocket, the Command and Service Modules, and the Lunar Module.

  • [DVD] From the Earth to the Moon - The Signature Edition

    Saturn I & IB

    Warner Home Video September 20, 2005 USD70.98

    Originally broadcast in April and May of 1998, the epic miniseries From the Earth to the Moon was HBO's most expensive production to date, with a budget of $68 million. Hosted by executive producer Tom Hanks, the miniseries tackles the daunting challenge of chronicling the entire history of NASA's Apollo space program from 1961 to 1972. For the most part, it's a rousing success. Some passages are flatly chronological, awkwardly wedging an abundance of factual detail into a routine dramatic structure. But each episode is devoted to a crucial aspect of the Apollo program. The cumulative effect is a deep and thorough appreciation of NASA's monumental achievement. With the help of a superlative cast, consistent writing, and a stable of talented directors, Hanks has shared his infectious enthusiasm for space exploration and the inspiring power of conquering the final frontier. NASA's complete participation in the production lends to its total authenticity, right down to the use of NASA equipment, launch locations, and even spacecraft. The re-creation of the lunar landscape is almost as impressive as the real thing and is further enhanced by the use of helium balloons to lighten the actors playing moon-walking astronauts. (These and other backstage details are revealed in the "making of" featurette, along with a wealth of supplemental materials, on a bonus disc in the miniseries' DVD package.) With a fictional, Walter Cronkite-like TV reporter (Lane Smith) serving as the dramatic link for all 12 episodes, this ambitious production may not be a great work of art. But as a generous and definitive example of nonfiction drama, it's full of the same kind of awe, inspiration, and humanity that led to "one giant leap" in the all-too-short history of 20th-century space exploration.

  • A Man on the Moon

    Virtual LM

    Penguin (Non-Classics) April 1, 1998 USD10.85

    A decade in the making, this book is based on hundreds of hours of in-depth interviews with each of the twenty-four moon voyagers, as well as those who contributed their brain power, training and teamwork on Earth. In his preface Chaikin writes, "We touched the face of another world and became a people without limits." What follows are thrilling accounts of such remarkable experiences as the rush of a liftoff, the heart-stopping touchdown on the moon, the final hurdle of re-entry, competition for a seat on a moon flight, the tragic spacecraft fire, and the search for clues to the origin of the solar system on the slopes of lunar mountains. "I've been there. Chaikin took me back."--Gene Cernan, Apollo 17 astronaut--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
