As a video engineer for PBS, I'm going to take an educated guess that the paint scheme was intended to aid the hundreds of tracking cameras in maintaining focus and tracking during the flight. Having attempted to manually maintain focus and tracking on the Columbia and Challenger shuttle launches of 1981-1983, I can tell you firsthand that once those electric fly machines get up a good head of steam, its damned hard to keep them in the viewfinder, much less keep them in focus. Without going into a lot of dreadful technical detail, the analog video system in use then (NTSC) did useful things when it was pointed at objects containing bold, high contrast patterns such as the paint schemes shown here. Video signals of black and white patterns contain a lot of high frequency information. The sharper the transition between the black and white areas in the image, the stronger the high frequency signals in the video will be. This means that electronic systems can monitor the high frequencies and automatically adjust camera focus and tracking to maximize the high frequency video components. We call it auto focus,

Werner von Braun has said publicly that the B&W paint scheme used on the V2, and all subsequent rockets was inspired by the rocket ship in the film "Woman in the Moon", released by German director Fritz Lang in 1929. This movie is thought by many to be the first use of a countdown prior to launching a rocket.

I saw these rockets and the aesthetics, though not intentional, were simply awesome. The Saturn-Apollo spacecraft was just off the charts beautiful.

I love these vintage space videos! Thank you so much for sharing these delightful tidbits!

One of my favorite road trips was down to the US Space and Rocket Center and taking a tour of Redstone Arsenal. Walking under the Saturn V and seeing the F1 engines, the lander, etc. But it was a bit depressing as well to see the facilities and how they seemed so dead and dated. For a while it really made me think that I screwed up by not perusing a career in aerospace engineering. Love the videos, wish I had found them sooner!

I recall asking Deke Slayton the purpose of those black markings on the Saturn rockets ---- he said it was for tracking. Amy's explanation is more thorough and I agree with her on how fantastic the Saturn V looks. Great channel, Amy ---- I'm glad to be a subscriber!

You are by far one of the most interpretive youtubers when it comes to everyday questions we peons love to learn about. Thank you so much for being "down to earth", figuratively speaking. Myself and my six year old, that's dead set on being an astronaut when he grows up, are extremely enjoying all of your phenomenal videos. Just a fan that can't say thank you enough for bringing an awesome mixture of information and enjoyment to the two guys in this family from Nashville TN. Keep up the good fight ma'am!

I just happened upon your channel (recommended), but so glad that I did! I grew up loving all this stuff, so thank you, sincerely, for all effort and great job!

Your channel is amazing! Lots of interesting info on paint and I did know why it was there, but not all the changes. Yes, the Saturn 5 was truly a rocketer's rocket, the size and majesty will mostly never be duplicated. BTW, the Space Shuttle's orange vs white main fuel tank is also interesting. I understand the first few were painted white, but engineers decided it wasn't needed for cooling and to cut down on weight, it was no longer painted so it stayed the natural insulation orange color.

Very interesting trivia bits. Love it! :-)

I love how your videos answer to questions I didn't even know existed! Amazing

I'm always drawn to the Saturn 4. The S-IC (first stage) was already painted when they noted the heating problem, so they painted white paint over the troublesome black areas. You can see the black showing through the white, which amuses me every time. I also like that the pattern on the S-II (second), S-IVB (third) interstage is in binary (white-white, white-black, black-white, black-black).

Best paint scheme ever. And thanks to you even more interesting.

In addition to seeing if the rocket would "spin" in flight you will notice that all stages and stage adapters had a different pattern. That was so if the rocket broke apart in flight, and the pieces were recovered, the parts of the rocket would be quickly identified, by the pattern, as to what stage was what part of the rocket... Furthermore the command and service modules were not a tiny speck of sliver. They were intended to be in space and be exposed to heat and radiation.. that silver you see on the service module is chrome mylar. Under the white removable shroud the command module was also chrome mylar. Since the service module was lost in space, only the command came back and the Chrome Mylar burned off in reentry. Ref. U.S. Space and Rocket Center.

If I didn’t know any better I’d say you’re an Air Traffic Controller. Clear voice, great articulation, speed of a rockets upper stage. Thanks for not wasting any time! :-)

Sharp. Clear. Professional. Additionally, this is an unexpected, unique and surprisingly educational commentary. Bravissima!

Here's a tidbit of local info on the Saturn V...I grew up in Cocoa Beach and then later Titusville in the space race years (My Dad was a Radar Guidance Engineer for GE out at the Cape)...anyway, in downtown Titusville on U.S. 1 right on the Indian River pretty much due west of the Saturn V launch pads 39A and 39B we had a Burger King and being the late 60's the attached screened in outside eating area had recently become air conditioned so the screens were replaced with big sliding glass doors...the first time they lit the Saturn V it shattered the glass and also shattered the showroom window glass at the Ford Dealer next door...I don't know what the distance was from the launch pad to the Burger King, but I would swag it at about 12 to 15 miles. BTW, thereafter whenever a Saturn V was on the launch pad both the BK and the Ford dealer would have tape on their windows, which fixed the problem. EDIT: my swag was pretty damn accurate, I just googled it and the drive from 39B to U.S. 1 in Titusville (which would be only feet from the BK) is 12.1 miles.

The tests, where it was just ONE engine were breaking windows several miles away in downtown Huntsville & the stores were starting to get a bit pissed about it. They didnt want to lose the peoples support , so they did something to control the sound. I cant remember exactly what it was though. I got to see one of the tests when I was a kid & man, it was loudest thing I've heard even to this day. And thats from a guitar player that has spent years in front of Marshall stacks (Amps) on stage. But the thing I really remember was a test where my dad told my mom & me to go outside at the exact time one day that they were going to test one of the engines & see if we could hear it. We were at a Minimum of 30 miles, but at that exact time , we heard what sounded like thunder on the horizon. Was so cool that I will Never forget it.

Been neat to see one. When the Nova concept came out Orbital Rendezvous was not considered possible. Figured that they'd need a giant spaceship to land on the moon then launch itself back to Earth. Someone got orbital rendezvous to work, you could have a separate lunar lander. This slashed weight required to be lifted into orbit. The Nova wasn't really necessary. I agree - would have been cool for them to at least build one. I'd suspect that the next moon mission will use conventional rockets, to lift various parts and pieces into orbit. They'll arrange to string them all together. Send them on their way.

My grandfather was one of the 104 engineers/scientists of Operation Paperclip. He worked on the V2. Many years ago he told my father, also an engineer, that the black and white paintings were to help with expansion/contraction problems while the rocket sat on the pad in the sun. The answers you find online today about the paintings all refer to making the rocket more easily seen during flight, but I do not believe that was true for the V2, at least during their early test flights.

Love to know what job you do, thank you love the information.

To believe we went to the moon 50 years ago but can't go now, isn't just gullable and irresponsible, it's vintage stupid!

It took time to build the rockets and the spacecraft they carried, as well as build the infrastructure on the ground for "mission control", and get trained people in place to run it. With several years lead time, we could do it again. But right now, we can't. And why would we do all that again?

We CAN go - but it costs money which nobody wants to spend.

Who says we "can't go now"? Where do you guys get this? Has anyone been paying any attention at all to NASA's Space Launch System/Artemis 1 and 2?

I like your attention to detail.

wow--I just came across this and thank you for the background on Saturn V paint schemes! I remember several of the plastic scale model kits available in the late 1960's-early 70's recommended the paint scheme that looked like the 500F scheme for the S-1C stage. I suspect the paint scheme on the S-II to S-IVB adapter allows somebody to determine the roll angle of the vehicle: one quadrant is all white, one is all black, one is white over black, and one is black over white, so each quadrant is unique.

Glad to learn somthing new everyday.. Love that massive machine.. Have always been in AWE at its power.

Great video as always, tid bits hear and there i never knew. MY favorite is the one on the model since its what i used to build the one i has as a kid.

Really appreciate your channel and your interest. I saw the classic control room, and a Saturn V in Houston a couple of days ago. I wish you could do a video on the instrument unit.

This was interesting and I never thought about the reasons for the paint schemes!

that little side smile at 2:43 tho....made me smile :)

Thanks amy,never thought much about why black and white patterns were there,just think the looked cool. Now I know.

Very informative chanel! Thanks!

Love that young people are continuing the history of our Space program. I have a 5 foot Saturn 5 in my living room. I'm 62. LOL Keep up the great work.

This is the first vid I see of made by You Ami Shira :) , And I love what You've done, so did subscribe I :)

I remember running home from school to see the Apollo missions and the Saturn v was awesome! Then the 70's.
