Saturn 5 Launch Vehicle Flight Evaluation Report, SA-513, Skylab 1

Saturn V SA-513 (Skylab-1) was launched at 13:30:00 Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) on May 14, 1973, from Kennedy Space Center, Complex 39, Pad A. The vehicle lifted off on a launch azimuth of 90 degrees east of north and rolled to a flight azimuth of 40.88 degrees east of north. The launch vehicle successfully placed the Saturn Work Shop in the planned earth orbit. All launch vehicle objectives were accomplished. No launch vehicle failures or anomalies occurred that seriously affected the mission.

The Enduring Legacy of Saturn V Launch Vehicle Flight Dynamics and Control Design Principles and Practices

It has been over 50 years since the first launch of the Saturn V launch vehicle, Apollo 4, on November 9th,1967. Developed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, Alabama, the Saturn V was a massive multistage liquid-fuel expendable rocket used by NASA’s Apollo and Skylab programs. It safely flew 24 American astronauts to the Moon, blazing the trail for all American heavy-lift launch vehicles to follow. The Saturn V remains the only launch vehicle to carry humans beyond low Earth orbit. Nearly fifty years after the final May 1973 flight of the Saturn V, an enduring technical legacy of launch vehicle technologies still supports the United States space launch capabilities, particularly with respect to flight dynamics and control. The structured refinement of GN&C technologies during the Saturn program, leveraging the incremental advancements of the Jupiter, Redstone, and Saturn I/IB, systematically reduced risk and resulted in the most advanced and reliable launch vehicle flight control systems to have been developed before the advent of the Space Shuttle.
