        @BeschlossDC Hi Michael. Great photo & love your feed, but that's a Saturn I rocket which was part of Apollo & precursor to Saturn V.

        @BeschlossDC Don't want to be pedantic but that was a Saturn 1, the first of the Saturn rockets, never carried men but led to the Saturn V

        @BeschlossDC Yes, this is an early Saturn 1 prototype for the Apollo program and poignantly represents JFK's dream for a moon landing.

        @BeschlossDC This isn't a Gemini stack. I believe it's a test Saturn 1 with a dummy payload.
