    The Skylab module, which was built from a Saturn V 3rd stage (or Saturn 1B 2nd stage) was launched from a Saturn V. Due to the weight, and required orbit, the 1B could not launch the space station.

    The rocket in the background is a Saturn V, not a 1B. To launch on those platforms, the 1B sat on a tall pedestal, which you could see in the pic if it was there.

    Also, the 1st stage of the 1B is comprised of a series of Redstone rockets, so looking at it you see 8 (or 9?) round tubes around the circumference of the rocket, as opposed to the single round tube of the V.

    Unfortunately, no, not at this time. I pulled it off Reddit. I’ll do some digging though. It’s a cool pic!

    I was really into the space program as a kid, so I knew lots and lots of details. Also, my Dad worked at NASA.

    I'm not into the current program nearly as much, even though I worked at NASA for a while. Politics and risk aversion and incessant delays have really soured my opinion on the current goings on.
