A docking adapter is needed too as well as pumps and hoses for fuel transfer. All rockets should be at the same place within a short time interval for fuel transfer, all rockets should be launched within a short time from multiple launch pads. An additional stage for the rocket needs no precise rendezvous and no fuel transfer. Only all lower stages have to be much bigger to carry the additional stage. The whole rocket would be gigantic in size. | |
