KSC - Saturn 1B

This is a Saturn 1B rocket at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, in 1985. As far as I am aware, it's still there on display.

 

Saturn 1B rockets were launched 9 times between 1966 and 1975, including three crewed Skylab flights. All were successful.

 

Later the Saturn series of rocket designs culminated in the mighty Saturn V which famously transported astronauts into space on the Apollo missions.
