Saturn IB-C

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Studied in 1965, the same year that Project Gemini started, the Saturn IB-C was simply designed as an orbital launch vehicle like the original Saturn IB. The booster would consist of an ordinary Saturn IB with four Minuteman first stages used as strap-on boosters. The Saturn IB core booster did fly up until 1975, but not it's strap-on boosters.
