Falcon 9 Block 5, the most prolific active orbital launch system in the world.. This comparison of orbital launch systems lists the attributes of all current and future individual rocket configurations designed to reach orbit.
When stacked and fully fueled, Starship has a mass of approximately 5,000 t (11,000,000 lb), [c] a diameter of 9 m (30 ft) [12] and a height of 121.3 m (398 ft). [13] The rocket has been designed with the goal of being fully reusable to reduce launch costs; [14] it consists of the Super Heavy booster and the Starship upper stage [15] which are powered by Raptor and Raptor Vacuum engines.
A Saturn V rocket, one of the most powerful operational launch vehicles to date. This article compares different orbital launcher families (launchers which are significantly different from other members of the same 'family' have separate entries).
Starship’s towering first-stage booster, propelled by 33 Raptor engines, puts the rocket system’s full height at some 122m (400ft) and produces thrust twice as powerful as the Saturn V rocket ...
The SpaceX Starship lifts off from Starbase near Boca Chica, Texas, on Nov. 19, 2024, for the Starship Flight 6 test. ... more than twice the liftoff power of NASA's legendary Saturn 5 moon rocket ...
