Saturn IB News Reference

FOREWORD

This volume has been prepared by the four Saturn IB major contractors; Chrysler, Douglas, Rocketdyne Division of North American Aviation, and IBM in cooperation with the National Aeronatics and Space Administration.

It is designed to serve as an aid to newsmen in present and future coverage of the Saturn IB in its role in the Saturn/Apollo Program and as a general purpose large launch vehicle. Every effort has been made to present a comprehensive overall view of the vehicle and its capabilites, supported by detailed information on the individual stages and all major subsystems.
