The Ares V rocket was a part of the NASA Constellation Program, which was the plan for human space exploration in the 21st century. Unlike the Ares 1-X, which is designed to lift heavy loads into Earth orbit, the Ares IV was intended to take loads to the moon or Mars. The project was canceled due to Barack Obama's funding cuts in 2010-2011. Eventually, the Space Launch System was devised, which is intended to replace the Ares V.
