Hint; No Muslims on board, ever. 1350 gallons of kerosene, 2000 gallons of liquid oxygen every second. 2200 tons of duel in he first five minutes. With that kind of tip off its easy but putting rocket, moon, in the keywords,now that would be cheating!

First Stage of the Saturn V.

I agree. Vortex baffles in foreground. Splash baffles haven't been installed yet.

Here's a video of the interior of the tank during operation.

The rocket of my childhood.

I once played sick to stay home from school so that I could see one of these missions launch.

Coolest launch video of that monster you’ll ever see. (The music is perfect with it)

I'm often amazed by the engineering associated with these types of projects.

SR-71

 photo SR71Bodo_Olav_C1_zpsd22a1966.jpg I can just imagine the conservation when LM first introduced this aircraft to the Top Brass.

Generals, "What's that under the plane?"

LM, "That's fuel sir"

Generals, "Shouldn't your ground crew be more careful?"

LM, "Sir?"

Generals, "That's an obvious hazard", "You need to be more careful when fueling".

LM, "Sir, I assure you that our crews are extremely proficient"

Generals, "Then why is there fuel puddling under this aircraft?"

LM, "It's leaking from the fuel tanks, sir"

Generals, "I expect this is something that you are going to fix?", "I thought you were ready?"

LM, "Yes sir, we are ready", "The fuel leaks by design"

Easier to identify if you put the people in the middle of the frame instead of around the periphery.

Worked for the company that made these big monsters, though by the time I worked there we were making the main engines for the Space Shuttles. Slightly smaller, but collectively (fired in trios) equally awesome.

DING! DING! DING!

WE HAVE A WINNER!

The FReeper that placed 'largehadroncollider' as a keyword guessed it correctly.

You have won the grand prize but there's no need to have it presented to you. All you need do is to claim the first higgs-boson particle you identify and it's yours. Once in your possession, please let us know so that we will mount it on a display with your name. Congratulations and Good Luck!

Most likely the H2 tank on the Space Shuttle's External Tank stack-up assembly.
