Before there was the Space Shuttle there was the awesome Saturn V rocket booster.

Ahh the Saturn V rocket! (http://player.vimeo.com/video/4366695?portrait=0&autoplay=1")*

Enjoy the intricate technical wonders that perform the dance that gets 7,648,000 pounds-force of thrust doing the bidding of mere humans.

* Yes, another 8+-minute video....  :P
