Here's another quickie... about 67 pages of mostly charts, graphs, and other mathematical goodness... with some interesting descriptive stuff hidden here and there within and a nice Saturn IB reference diagram, along with a few other things Saturn IB related I had in the folder...

Pic one is the reference diagram from the document.

Pic two is a Skylab Saturn IB (they were all-white first stage tanks) and a notional "Jarvis" launcher concept from Hughes Aerospace after the Challenger disaster, using a shuttle ET diameter core stage (presumably constructed on ET tooling) powered by a pair of F-1 engines, with a shuttle ET diameter upper stage powered by a J-2S engine. This one is off of nasaspaceflight.com/forums "NASA model building thread".

Pic three is the Apollo crest from the back cover of the study...

Enjoy! OL JR :)
