Saturn V
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
The Saturn V was a multistage, liquid-fueled rocket used by NASA during the mid-1960s through the mid-1970s for the Apollo and Skylab programs.
In 1968, a Saturn V rocket secretly containing a sub-orbital warhead was launched from the McKinley Rocket Base on April 4th. It suffered a serious malfunction, went off course and exploded. The true details regarding this mishap at the time was "never generally revealed." (TOS: "Assignment: Earth")
- Images of the missile in space shown on the Beta 5 computer screen was taken from film shot during the Apollo 4 interstage separation sequence.
After Jonathan Archer restored a damaged timeline in 2154, a Saturn V rocket could be seen in the time stream as the timeline realigned itself. (ENT: "Storm Front, Part II")
An image depicting the launch of a Saturn V was contained in the library computer aboard the USS Enterprise in 2254. (TOS: "The Cage" remastered)
