      lots of those rockets have problems, N1 couldn’t escape the atmosphere, energiya couldn’t escape the USSR’s collapse and the sls block 2 won’t be able to escape CAD

      everything right of sls block 1 hasn’t even flown

    It’s cool to see them all side by side. We really are in a new era of bigass rockets.

    Only listing LEO payload numbers is weird when some of these are primarily meant for TLI.

    SLS Cargo isn’t real and can’t hurt me. Yenisei is vaporware. And the payload mass for everything on the right half is unproven.
