So the Saturn V rocket weighted 2767 Tonnes.
After 10 seconds it was going vertically at 25 m/s or 90 km/h

After 20 seconds, it was 1/2 a km in the sky and going 200 km/h.
As high as the Taipei building, going 3X faster than the fastest elevator in the world and accelerating hard.

......... Thus, the men estimated that in just a tenth of a second, the Saturn V would burn 10 times the amount of fuel Lindbergh used for his entire trip. .................

It comes up as WEBP and not JPEG. Can you find a Google source image for it?

EDIT: OK I found one.

I'll breathe that air all day before I breathe anything within 1000 km downwind of China. Our military have been wearing masks in South Korea for years because of Chinese pollution. I remember smog in Dallas when I was a kid. We don't have it anymore.
