4..Lambda 4S-5 - The Lambda 4S or L-4S was a 4-stage experimental Japanese expendable carrier rocket. launched five times between 1966 and 1970 with Osumi technology demonstration satellites. The first four launches failed, however the fifth (L-4S-5), launched on 11 February 1970, successfully placed Ohsumi (Osumi-5), the first Japanese satellite, into orbit. This vehicle had no on board guidance system and is, to date, the smallest ground based launch vehicle to place a satellite into orbit. This vehicle provides some interesting lessons to those with small launch vehicle orbital aspirations.

It was normally armed with the a nuclear warhead, but could also be fitted with a conventional warhead for export use. Hercules was developed as the successor to the earlier MIM-3 Nike Ajax,and at its peak it was deployed at over 130 bases in the US alone. Hercules remained the US' primary heavy SAM until it began to be replaced by the higher performance and more mobile MIM-104 Patriot in the 1980s. The last Hercules missile was launched in the Sardinian range of Capo San Lorenzo in Italy on November 24, 2006.

43..KSC vehicle assembly building - is the only facility where assembly of a rocket occurred that carried humans beyond low-Earth orbit and on to the Moon. The VAB, which was completed in 1966, was originally built to allow for the vertical assembly of the Saturn V rocket for the Apollo program and referred to as the Vertical Assembly Building. In anticipation of post-Saturn projects such as the Space Shuttle program, it was renamed the Vehicle Assembly Building in 1965, and was used for the Shuttle's external fuel tanks and flight hardware, and to mate the Space Shuttle orbiters to their solid rocket boosters and external fuel tanks. Once assembled, the complete Space Shuttle was moved on the mobile launcher platform and crawler-transporter to LC-39A or LC-39. The VAB will be used for assembly and processing of any future vehicles utilizing Launch Complex 39. Work is on the way getting the VAB ship-shape (or "spaceship-shape") to process the new launch vehicles (SLS). The VAB is one of the largest buildings in the world by area, the VAB covers eight acres, is 525 feet tall and 518 feet wide. The VAB high bay doors are the largest in the world at 456 feet high and take about 45 minutes to completely open or close.

54..Delta II 7000 Series Launch Vehicles - Built by the United Launch Alliance, had long carried the title of the most reliable rocket in service. With a record 153 successful launches out of 155 flights. The Delta II first launched on Valentine's Day, February 14, 1989, carrying the first full-scale GPS satellite and kickstarting the navigation constellation that we continue to depend on decades later. The Delta II rocket has propelled more than 80 communications satellites and 30 space probes to destinations throughout the solar system. The first rover was launched to Mars on top of a Delta II in 1996, followed by a set of twin rovers Spirit and Opportunity in 2003. For its final mission (September 14, 2018), the Delta II delivered the Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite-2 (aka ICESat-2), into a polar orbit, where it will spend the next several years studying where ice is melting across the globe and how quickly, to help forecast the climate-related changes yet to come. The Delta II has earned its place in history as the most successful rocket the United States ever developed. It also launched some cool science. From confirming the big bang, and studying a comet's tail, to launching Kepler, which is the most prolific planet-hunter out there.
NOTE: Three variants of the Delta II 7000 series is available, the 7326, 7425 and the 7925. Each comes with both the 9.5-foot and the 10-foot fairings and instructions.

59..Delta III 8930 - Delta III was developed from the Delta II rocket. The new vehicle sported a modified first stage and a new, more efficient upper stage. This led to Delta III having around double the payload capacity of Delta II. However, the consecutive failures of the initial Delta IIIs, combined with the more advanced Delta IV program and the continuing success of the Delta II, left the Delta III as an interim vehicle. The Delta III suffered two major failures and was retired after just three launches (August 23, 2000).
