DescriptionApollo 8 acceleration.png	English: acceleration of Saturn V during Apollo 8 launch . The marked events in the graph are: Launch with ignition of the S-IC. Note how the acceleration rapidly rises with increasing engine efficiency and reduced propellant load. Cut-off of the centre engine of the S-IC. Outboard engine cut-off of the S-IC at a peak of 4g. S-II stage ignition. Note the reduced angle of the graph for although the mass of the first stage has been discarded, the thrust of the S-II stage is nearly one tenth of the final S-IC thrust. Cut-off of the centre engine of the S-II. Outboard engine cut-off of the S-II at a peak of approximately 1.8g. S-IVB stage ignition. Note again the reduced angle of the graph caused by the thrust being cut to a fifth. With the cut-off of the S-IVB's first burn, the vehicle is in orbit with zero acceleration.
