Yeah ... shuttle.  Not Saturn V.  And what happens when the shuttle is
retired in a few years ... how will the big packages go into orbit?
Certainly not by a modern day Saturn V (that kind of lift was needed only
for NASA)
but by mid-range lifters that can send up several packages that get
connected after doing a rendezvous in orbit.


Rent an Arianne.
