Rockets, Yeah!

My how our space program has grown.

This dude named Alex Brown decided to throw all the world’s rockets onto one poster and the results are out of this world! *snicker*  I like how I’m included in the upper left corner.  The description fits me to a T.  One minor complaint: Comparing the rockets to me is all fine and dandy, but it’s still difficult to judge scale from me to the largest rocket.  So FYI, that largest rocket, the SLS B-II is 385 feet tall.  So it would just fit into most baseball stadiums if laid down on the foul line.  Also, LEO means Low Earth Orbit and the mass number that follows is its maximum mass that can be pushed to LEO using that rocket.
