Does that Turquoise H enlarge for the upper stage, then get a little narrower? Or is that just a scanning issue?If so, I think that's cool, but it strikes me as impractical. Engineers prefer to avoid hammerhead shapes on rockets if they can, because it makes the aerodynamics more complicated. Best to keep the same diameter if possible, but if you have to change it, don't then change it again.
