Ugears NASA Saturn V, 3D Puzzle, 26.18-inch Height, Brown

Welcome to UGEARS branded online store in the USA. We are also known as Ukidz Toys and this is our UGEARS branded store format. We are the official distributor/vendor of Mechanical Model kits manufactured by Ukrainian Gears. These amazing 3D Self Assembly models are educational and fun to put together. They can also serve as decorative pieces. Although the kits come with clear step-by-step instructions, they can also be called puzzles as the challenge is always present. Inspired by steampunk fantasy, the clear view of all the moving components, including gears and pendulums, creates a unique, unforgettable, and fascinating look at everyday (and not so everyday) machinery. Many of our wood model designs have been inspired by real-life prototypes, while some of our other designs have been re-imagined from history.

• NASA's Saturn V rocket holds records as the tallest, most powerful, and heaviest payload launch vehicle ever built, and is the only rocket to have carried humans beyond low Earth orbit.
• There were thirteen successful missions using Saturn V rockets: the twelve Apollo missions and the launch of Skylab (the United States' first space station) into low Earth orbit.
• The Saturn V stood 363 feet (110.64 m) tall (taller than the Statue of Liberty), was 33 feet (10.06 m) in diameter, weighed 6.5 million pounds (2.95 million kg) when fully fueled, and had three separate stages that fired sequentially and separated in flight.
• Stages one and two had five engines each, stage three had one engine, and all three stages used liquid fuel (the first used RP-1, while stages 2 and 3 used liquid hydrogen) mixed with liquid oxygen (LOX) as the oxidizer.
• Ugears' NASA Saturn V model joins the NASA Space Shuttle Discovery, Manned Mars Rover and Mars Rover in the Ugears collection of space exploration vehicles.
