 Saturn I inodudzwa kuti Saturn 1 yaiva roketi yakagadzirirwa seUnited States yekutanga yepakati yekusimudza motokari yekusimudza kusvika kune pasi pasi orbit payloads. Chikamu chokutanga cheresiketi chakavakwa semapoka ematanki emagetsi akagadzirwa kubva pamagadzirirwo ekare ematanki eroketi, zvichitungamira vatsoropodzi kuti vazvitsanangure sekuseka se Clusters Last StandKuvandudzwa kwaro kwakatorwa kubva kuAdvanced Research Projects Agency muna 1958 neNASA yehurumende yakanga ichangobva kuumbwa. Kugadzirwa kwaro kwakaratidza kuva kwakanaka uye kunochinjika. Yakabudirira mukutanga kuvandudzwa kwemvura-hydrogen-yakagadziriswa rocket propulsion, kuvhura maPegasus satellites, uye kuongorora ndege yeApollo yekuraira uye sevhisi module kuvhura chikamu aerodynamics. Makomba gumi eSaturn I akabhururutswa asati atsiviwa neSaturn IB, iyo yaishandisa danho rechipiri rakakura, rakakwirira uye rakarongedzwa uye rakarongedzwa. Yakatungamirirawo kukugadzirwa kwechikepe chakakura zvikuru Saturn V icho chakatakura vanhu vokutanga kuenda kumwedzi mupurogiramu yeApollo.
