This is a high-fidelity model of an F-1 liquid fuel rocket engine, the highest thrust engine NASA has ever flown. Five F-1 engines, each producing a maximum thrust of 1.5 million pounds, powered the first stage (designated S1-C) of the colossal Saturn V launch vehicle that took American astronauts to the moon between 1969 and 1972.
Built by the Rocketdyne Division of North American Aviation, the F-1 burned RP-1, a refined form of kerosene, and liquid oxygen. The engine's 2,500-pound turbopump produced more than 20,000 horsepower and could pump 42,500 gallons of propellant per minute.
