Rocket Size Comparison 2024

Many inaccuracies in this video. The Saturn IB didn't look like a Saturn V. There's missing the Deltas, Atlas V, Titan II, Juno, Thor, Buran, Vostok, Voskhod, Sputnik, Soyuz capsule, Apollo capsule, Gemini capsule, Mercury capsule, etc. The Atlas V is shown as the Delta Heavy with a white painted core instead of an orange painted core and the Atlas V anyway doesn't have orange painted solid rocket boosters and it doesn't have two large side boosters, Space Shuttles didn't have black painted SRBs, the SLS doesn't have white painted core stages, the Mercury-Redstone and Mercury-Atlas didn't have white painted capsules nor did the Atlas have white painted boosters (they were chrome and turned white from ice before the launch shook the ice off), the N1 rocket didn't have orange painted stages, etc.

As an aerospace nerd, this video physically hurt to watch. What happened to the Redstone? Why is the Atlas all white, instead of chrome? What happened to the Space Shuttle, and why is Atlantis the only one here? Where are the Buran, Angara, Juno series, Vanguard, Titan series, Ariane series, Thor series, R-7 series, Delta series, and the rest of the Indian SLV series, as well as all the Korean rockets? Why is the Saturn 1B just a squished down Saturn V? What happened to the original Atlas rockets instead of the Atlas 5 Heavy, which never even existed? (And why does it look like that?) Tf is the 'Neytron', and why does it have a huge bulge on the side? Why does the GSLV MLK-3 (now called the LVM-3) have a red interstage, and why are the PSLV's SRBs red? Why is there only one Long March model? Why have the Proton-M and not the Proton-K? Why would you use the F9 Block 5, but not the FH Block 5? Why is the Ares-1 here, but not the Ares V? Why is the Space Launch System titled Artemis 1, which is just the name of the first mission? And why is it white? Why is the New Glenn bigger than the SLS if they're, supposedly, the same height? Where's the rest of the SLS models? Why is the N-1 orange? Why not include the Skylab configuration of the Saturn V? If you have the Grasshopper, why not the Starhopper? If we want to include concepts in this video such as the Ares series and Atlas V Heavy, what about the Sea Dragon, Saturn C-8/Nova and Convair Nexus, which are probably the top three most well-known rocket concepts? I want to go on an even longer rant about some of these, but I doubt the YouTube comment character limit would even let me finish some of the things I have to say!
