A carpenter who lived some time from 1 to 30 AD before getting executed by crucifixion.
In Christianity, he is God's son and sent to Earth to die for mankind's sins so it can be forgiven. Because of this, the cross is associated with Christianity.
Interestingly, in Islam, he is said to be a prophet rather than the son of God. He's also mentioned the most often compared to any other person in the Quran.
In both, it is written that he also preached (Christianity in the case of Christianity and Islam in the case of Islam). It's also written that Jesus was born to a person called Mary, who was a virgin - both religions agree that this was due to divine intervention.

If you don't know what clickbait is by now... well, here it is:
Clickbait: content that is labelled with an extremely exciting/sensational title but with content nothing close to it.
Point is, you click on it and:
1. The person who posted the clickbait gets a view;
2. The website who made it gets ad money;
3. You get shown a scam.
The point of clickbait is to entice you to click on something. Once you've clicked, the baiter gets some kind of benefit while you get disappointed.

American Moon rocket and holds the record for highest payload capacity of any functional rocket ever built. The Soviet N1 was designed to compete with it.
Its payload to Low Earth Orbit was the unempty S-IVB (third) stage, the LM or Landing Module, and the Apollo CSM. The third stage would then restart to perform translunar injection.
The Saturn V, throughout its launches, has never failed and no crew have died from it. (On Apollo 13, the fault was with the Service Module and not the Saturn V.)

The Saturn V also cost over a billion dollars per launch though, so...
Not to be confused with the Saturn IB, which used the same S-IVB but as a second stage. The Saturn IB was never intended to land astronauts on the Moon.
