The mammoth Saturn V 3-stage liquid fueled Lunar Launch Vehicle was responsible for the successful launch of all of the Apollo spacecraft (except of course Apollo 1, destroyed by fire on the launch pad during testing). The Vehicle Assembly Building at Kennedy Space Center at Cape Canaveral, Florida, was specifically designed and built to assemble and service the Saturn V. When being rolled out on the crawler to the launch pad, the tip of the nose cone cleared the top of the doorway by only 6'.
With the Apollo spacecraft aboard, the Saturn V was 363' tall and 33' wide, and weighed 6,699,000 lbs. It was just 1 foot shorter than St. Paul's Cathedral in London.
The type of rocket that launced Apollo 11 into space is the same type of rocket that was used for all Apollo launchings. The Saturn V (five) multistage rocket was used.
The Saturn V
The Apollo 11 spacecraft used approximately 7.6 million pounds of fuel for its entire mission, including the journey to the Moon, lunar landing, and return to Earth. The Saturn V rocket that launched the spacecraft had three stages, each burning a different type of fuel to propel the spacecraft into space.
The same rocket design that launched Apollo 2-17. Apollo 1 was just a unfueled test for the astronauts. (The command module caught on fire, perishing the men.) The name of the rocket is Saturn V. If you go to any search engine, go to images and type in, Saturn V. You will see many pictures of it. It was a rather simple rocket.
Apollo 11 was a mission, Saturn V was a rocket. The Apollo 11 mission was the first Apollo mission to land man on the moon, it use a Saturn V rocket to take off from earth and get in to orbit.

A Saturn V rocket, developed by a NASA team lead by Wernher von Braun. The Saturn IB rocket was also used.
The Saturn V rocket was used to carry astronauts to the moon during the Apollo missions. This rocket remains the largest and most powerful rocket ever built and was essential for launching the spacecraft from Earth's surface to lunar orbit.

A space rocket is a type of vehicle used to propel spacecraft into space, while a space shuttle refers to a specific type of spacecraft that can carry crew and cargo to and from space. Space shuttles are reusable vehicles that are launched like a rocket but land like an airplane.

"The first rocket was the Sputnik...." Here we go again... NO It Wasn't! The first Spacecraft with a human to go into space was the Russian Satellite called 'Vostok', or 'Vostok 3KA'. 'Sputink', is the Russian word for 'Satellite', it was NOT the Name of the spacecraft. imagine if every Russian called 'Apollo 18' ... 'Satilite' with a heavy russian accent... DRrr Not. It Also was not the first spacecraft! the Russians launched a bunch of Dogs and crap up there first... there were many spacecrafts that went up before 'Vostok'.
