  • Delta IV Heavy is schuled for one more flight before its retriment. Heavy was only used for larger payloads, due to its size and cost. This flight will mark the end for the Delta rocket family. The replacment for Heavy is Vulcan, or as full, Vulcan Cenatur. Its about the same thing as the atlas v rocket, but it has diffeent proptions, and new boosters, and new paint. It was first launched on Jaurny 8, 2024. Not only it will replace Heavy's family, but the atlas family too.

    Information for SpaceX Starship has outdated. Height was 122 meters (400 ft) due hot staging, for hot staging addation interstage betwen booster and ship

    For those wondering why SLS Block 2 has less payload capacity to LEO than the Saturn V, then it's because Boeing chose engine efficiency over thrust. This means they can burn longer without having to re-fuel. This isn't great for LEO missions because it lowers to mass it can take there, but it's better for missions outside Earth orbit. Because of this SLS Block 2 is expected to deliver 5,500 lbs more to the Moon than the Saturn V. Also since SLS Block 2 is still in early development the stats can change. Last year Boeing proved that upper stages made with composite materials are possible. If NASA wants, they can replace the metallic tank of the Exploration Upper Stage with composites. This could increase the payload capacity of SLS Block 2 to 377,000 lbs which is even more than Starship, and with the added benefit of not needing to re-fuel to leave LEO.
