Stages?
The article says "and the two-stage Saturn V's 75,000 kg (165,000 lb) capability...". Two stages? Could the first two stages of the Saturn V put that much in orbit, or is it supposed to be three stages? Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 08:11, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, at least. It was used that way to launch Skylab, which weighed 170,000 lb. If memory serves, three-stage orbit capability would have been around 260,000 lb. (People on Wikipedia like to play games with this and base its orbital capability on what the Apollo / S-IVB stack weighed in orbit including its trans-lunar injection fuel, but that's not really correct because that could have been burned to lift an inert payload. That figure was only circulated in early contemporary, hard to find sources dating from the time the Saturn V was in design.) JustinTime55 (talk) 12:49, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
