Done the math on FH vs DIVH for TLI from LEO for Orion and ESM injection. Keep in mind I assumed Orion was in 200km circular LEO whereas DIVH or FH could place Orion in a higher orbit. @SciGuySpace @Erdayastronaut @DJSnM Feel free to check my math here. docs.google.com/spreadsheets…
This may be confusing, but I can demonstrate it to you in graphs, below is a graph of the performance of the DIVH upper stage and the FH compared visually, note the two axises, delta V and payload, the more payload, the less Delta V and vice versa.

10 years ago today, we were a small aerospace startup that made history. Now we’ve had 62 successful launches, 29 booster landings, 15 reflights, 15 Dragon missions to the ISS, and 1 car sent to Mars orbit. #spacex #falcon1 #proudSpaceXer

Griffin: only in aerospace can you go into museums and see things you wish you still had, and it’s depressing. #vonbraun
