Of course, another way of interpreting the question might be "How much mass-energy did the Saturn V have at liftoff in eV" (eV are generally used in particle physics, where they are used to measure the combined rest mass and kinetic energy of particles (since velocities are often relativistic, and the kinetic energies involved can be a good deal greater than the rest masses of the particles).
Then we're talking 1.7 * 10^30 TeV.
Ok that I know that I'm right I complete the calculation.
I didn't calculated this at the end.
3.059 * 10^13 joules * 6.24 * 10^18 = 1.9 * 10^32 eV
for fist stage
