Keep the comparison accurate

Space Shuttle. This is the full launch stack, not the orbiter’s runway height or length.

Falcon 9. Keep the configuration attached to the height: full rocket, booster, and spacecraft are different measurements.

Saturn V. Compare the full launch configuration, not just the spacecraft that reaches its destination.

Godzilla. “Godzilla” is a character name, not one universal height. This record belongs to the 2019 film.

The artwork is interpretive. The scene preserves relative vertical scale, while the source definitions explain differences such as antennas, pedestals, launch configurations, and fictional versions.
