{{Main|S-IB}}
The S-IB stage was built by the [[Chrysler]] corporation at the [[Michoud Assembly Facility]], [[New Orleans, Louisiana|New Orleans]].<ref name=SIB_final_use/> It was powered by eight [[Rocketdyne H-1]] rocket engines burning [[RP-1]] fuel with [[liquid oxygen]] (LOX). Eight [[PGM-11 Redstone|Redstone]] tanks (four holding fuel and four holding LOX) were clustered around a [[PGM-19 Jupiter|Jupiter rocket]] LOX tank, which earned the rocket the nickname "Cluster's Last Stand".<ref>{{Cite web |title=Saturn I |url=http://www.astronautix.com/s/saturni.html}}</ref> The four outboard engines were mounted on [[gimbal]]s, allowing them to be steered to control the rocket. Eight fins surrounding the base thrust structure provided aerodynamic stability and control.
