.25 SATURN
Spaceflight Now is reporting on preparations for launch next summer of the Delta 4 Heavy rocket. This is an impressive bird, and one we sure need, but at 50,000 pounds, its payload to low Earth orbit (LEO) is less than one-quarter of what the Saturn V was back in the 1960s... Oh how the mighty have fallen.
