Complex Pipework, Saturn V, 2nd Stage




I tend to think of rocket engines as large fuel tanks, turbo-pumps and nozzles but one of the fascinating things about the engines on the Saturn V (and any rocket I’ve seen up close) is the amazing complexity of the plumbing. I suspect most of this is support and guidance related but, again, I’m no rocket scientist so it all remains an interesting pattern for now.

For the technically inclined...

  • Aperture: ƒ/11
  • Camera: CORPORATION
  • Focal length: 70mm
  • ISO: 200
  • Shutter speed: 1/4s
