1. What was the sound level from the Saturn V when it took of.
Rumours say it was loud!!!
Rumors are right.
This page says it was 200 decibels, where a jet engine is only 140 - and this is on an exponential (not linear) scale. No wonder they kept people at least 3 miles away!
2. What was the temperature inside the F-1 engine chamber.
2550 degrees
3. At sometime during the Apollo program, one of the launch pads was damaged when a Saturn V rocket took off. I think it was Apollo 11. Does anyone know what kind of damage? Was it caused by shockwaves? temperatures?
Couldn't find anything about this and don't remember it. Maybe one of our gurus knows something.
