	Saturn IB
		The three-stage Saturn V was planned for the lunar mission.
		The Saturn IB mounted its eight H-I engines in the same cluster pattern as the Saturn I, although successive improvements raised the total thrust of each engine to 890 000 newtons (200 000 pounds) and then to 912 000 newtons (205 000 pounds).
		Apollo/uprated Saturn I flights were identified with a 200 series number; Saturn V flights were identified with a 500 series number.
