I can't find a bigger version and so the text is a bit small. However I thought it of enough interest to post as it is here.

Also, missing Spacex's 'Falcon 1' and 'Falcon 9'. The latter is around the length of the Soyoz rockets (178ft) and the prior is a dinky little thing of 70ft.

On the first picture, third from right in the bottom row, the Saturn 3... I saw one of those launch, taking the second Skylab crew up. What a NOISE! We were several miles from the pad in a VIP bit, and the ground was shaking, and it felt like your chest was going to collapse. I thought they were closer in size to the Saturn 5... that would have been (more) awesome to see!

Funny you should mention the Falcon 9
