This comprehensive electronic book on two CD-ROMs presents an incredible collection of fascinating and historic NASA technical reports and documents on Project Mercury. As we stand on the threshold of new exploration of the moon, Mars and beyond, we are reminded of the first American space explorers who bravely paved the way: the original Mercury 7 astronauts. These adventurers, and a quiet spot on Florida's east coast, were destined to become the focus of the new Space Age. The first national manned space flight project, later named Project Mercury, was born on Oct. 7, 1958. The program spanned nearly five years, with six manned missions making history between May 1961 and May 1963. In that short time, NASA achieved its goals for the project: Orbit a manned spacecraft around Earth; investigate man's ability to function in space; and recover both man and spacecraft safely. The American public first met the seven men chosen to be this country's first human space voyagers on April 9, 1959, at a press conference in Washington. The men were dubbed astronauts; The term was a cross between aeronauts as ballooning pioneers were called, and Argonauts the legendary Greeks in search of the Golden Fleece. These new explorers were being prepared to sail into the new, uncharted vastness of space.There are 66 documents included in this collection. Some of the titles include:A Compilation Of Wind Tunnel Heat Transfer Measurements On The Afterbody Of The Project Mercury Capsule Reentry Configuration * Acquisition System Bermuda-Operation & Maintenance * C-Band Radar-Beacon Tracking For Project Mercury * Data Handling Techniques In Project Mercury * Distribution Of Aerodynamic Loads On The Project Mercury Vehicle * Dynamic Model Tests At Low Subsonic Speeds Of Project Mercury Capsule Configurations With & Without Drogue Parachutes * Dynamic Stability & Dispersion Of A Project Mercury Test Capsule Upon Entering The Atmosphere * Effects Of Canted Forward Faces On The Static Longitudinal Stability Characteristics Of The Escape & Exit Configurations Of A Project Mercury Capsule Flight Test Aerodynamic Heating Data For Afterbody Of Project Mercury Spacecraft With Comparisons To Available Prediction Methods * Flight Test Of A Little Joe Boosted Full-Scale Spacecraft Model & Escape System For Project Mercury * Forced-Flow Once-Through Boilers * Free-Flight Measurements Of Static & Dynamic Stability Of Models Of The Project Mercury Re-Entry Capsule At Mach 3 & 9.5 * From Wallops Island To Project Mercury 1945-1958 - A Memoir * Full-Scale Flight Test From Sea Level Of An Abort-Escape System For A Project Mercury Capsule * Heat Shield Performance During Atmospheric Entry Of Project Mercury Research & Development Vehicle * In-Flight Noise Measurements For Three Project Mercury Vehicles * Manned Satellite Projects Ground Communication Reliability Report For Project Mercury * Noise Considerations For Manned Reentry Vehicles * Personnel Management In R & D Organization - Analysis Of The Phasedown Of Gemini Program Office At Msfc * Physiological Sensors For Use In Project Mercury * Pressure Distribution On Two Models Of A Project Mercury Capsule For Mach 1.60 To 6.01 And An Angle-Of-Attack Range Of 0 To 180 Degrees * Progress Report-Atlas Booster Program For Project Mercury August 31 1961 * Project Mercury - A Chronology * Project Mercury 1961 Part 1 * Project Mercury 1961 Part 2 * Project Mercury 1962 * Project Mercury 1963 * Project Mercury External System Programs * Project Mercury Familiarization Manual * Project Mercury Familiarization Manual-Nasa Manned Satellite Capsule * Project Mercury Monthly Progress Report 11 June 30 1960 * "Project Mercury Preliminary Flight Test Results Of The Big Joe, Mercury R & D Capsule" * Project Mercury Technical Information Summary Of Mercury-Atlas Mission 5 (Capsule 9) * Pro ...

Product Description
This comprehensive electronic book on CD-ROM presents a collection of technical reports and images of NASA s first major tragedy, the Apollo 1 launch pad fire. This collection includes a complete reproduction of the entire review board report, including all appendices. There are over 150 image files showing the mission preparations and the aftermath of the accident.On January 27, 1967, tragedy struck the Apollo program when a flash fire occurred in command module 012 during a launch pad test of the Apollo/Saturn space vehicle being prepared for the first piloted flight, the AS-204 mission. Three astronauts, Lt. Col. Virgil I. Grissom, a veteran of Mercury and Gemini missions; Lt. Col. Edward H. White, the astronaut who had performed the first United States extravehicular activity during the Gemini program; and Roger B. Chaffee, an astronaut preparing for his first space flight, died in this tragic accident. A seven-member board, under the direction of the NASA Langley Research Center Director, Dr. Floyd L. Thompson, conducted a comprehensive investigation to pinpoint the cause of the fire. The final report, completed in April 1967 was subsequently submitted to the NASA Administrator. The report presented the results of the investigation and made specific recommendations that led to major design and engineering modifications, and revisions to test planning, test discipline, manufacturing processes and procedures, and quality control. With these changes, the overall safety of the command and service module and the lunar module was increased substantially. The AS-204 mission was redesignated Apollo I in honor of the crew.The fire which claimed the lives of Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee stunned the nation and rocked the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The disaster had the potential to bring a permanent halt to American efforts in space exploration. Rather than bury its head in the sand, NASA launched a full-scale investigation of the fire, and voluntarily put the entire Apollo program, including its administration, policies and procedures under the scrutiny of a review board. Based on the board's findings, NASA rolled up its sleeves and went to work to resolve the problems that had been identified. A successful failure is a mission which fails to reach its objectives and yet still achieves an element of success. Apollo I never left the launch pad. However, the information gained from this fatal mission paved the way for a totally redesigned Apollo spacecraft, eleven Apollo space flights and six lunar landings. Although Grissom, White and Chaffee never walked on the moon, their sacrifice helped to make it possible for us collectively to take "one giant leap for mankind". It is crucial to remember the hard lessons learned from Apollo I and eulogies are part of that remembering. Yet, Grissom, White and Chaffee may be honored best by continuing the work they began. Each of them believed that reaching the moon was not meant to be an end but a beginning. Thirty years ago, Grissom considered manned missions to Mars and crews assembling, living and working on space stations as realistic follow-ups to a lunar landing. While he recognized the place of ever-improving technology, White was emphatic about the need for mannedmissions: "You'll never satisfy man's curiosity unless a man goes himself." ... Read more

This comprehensive electronic book on four CD-ROMs presents an incredible collection of fascinating and historic NASA technical reports and documents on Project Gemini. The Gemini Program was conceived after it became evident to NASA officials that an intermediate step was required between Project Mercury and the Apollo Program. The major objectives assigned to Gemini were: To subject two men and supporting equipment to long duration flights -- a requirement for projected later trips to the moon or deeper space. To effect rendezvous and docking with other orbiting vehicles, and to maneuver the docked vehicles in space, using the propulsion system of the target vehicle for such maneuvers. To perfect methods of reentry and landing the spacecraft at a pre-selected land-landing point. To gain additional information concerning the effects of weightlessness on crew members and to record the physiological reactions of crew members during long duration flights. All of the major objectives were met as well as many other objectives assigned to each mission, with the exception of land landing which was canceled from the Gemini Program in 1964. However, the precision control necessary to achieve the land landing objective was demonstrated.There are 133 documents included in this collection. Some of the titles include:Study Of Gemini-Agena Docking Using A Fixed-Base Simulator Employing A Closed Circuit Television System * An Evaluation Of Gemini Hand Controllers & Instruments For Docking * Analog Simulation Of Gemini-Paraglider Earth Landing System & Ground Control Facility * Analysis & Design Of Space Vehicle Flight Control Systems Volume 16-Abort * Analysis & Design Of Space Vehicle Flight Control Systems Volume 8-Rendezvous & Docking * Analysis Of Baseline & Gemini Flight Gt-7 Eeg Data With Specification Of On-Line Computing Requirements * Analysis Of Brain Wave Records From Gemini Flight Gt-7 By Computations To Be Used On A Thirty-Day Primate Flight * Astronaut & System Performance During Gemini Eva * Blood Pressure Measuring System 54803-Project Gemini Final Report * Color Television Study Final Report November 1965-March 1966 * Comparison Of Free-Flight Measurements Of Stability Of Gemini & Mercury Entry Capsules At Mach 3 & 9.5 * Comparison Of Results Of Two Simulations Employing Full-Size Visual Cues For Pilot-Controlled Gemini-Agena Docking * "Correlation Of Predicted, Ground Test, And Flight Thermal Behavior In Gemini" * Correlation Study Of The Simulation Of Gemini Eva Activity With Flight Results * "Design, Development & Testing Dew Point Hygrometers For Gemini Final Report June 27 1965-January 31 1966" * Determination Of Pilot & Vehicle Describing Functions From Gemini 10 * Development & Evaluation Of Pressure Sealing Closure Progress Report 1963 * Development & Qualification Of Gemini Escape System * Dim Light Photography & Visual Observations Of Space Phenomena From Manned Spacecraft * Direct Flight Apollo Study Volume 2-Gemini Spacecraft Applications * Dynamic Model Investigation Of A One-Twentieth Scale Gemini Spacecraft In The Langley Spin Tunnel * Earth Photographs From Gemini 6 Through 12 * Effect Of Target Angular Oscillations On Pilot-Controlled Gemini-Agena Docking * Electromagnetic Compatibility Review Of Project Gemini * Eleventh Semiannual Report To Congress January 1-June 30 1964 (Gemini & Titan Ii) * Flight Planning Study-Review Of Gemini Flight Plans * Gemini - A Long-Range Cargo Transport * Gemini & Apollo Spacecraft Controls & Displays * Gemini 10 Inertial Guidance System Evaluation & Trajectory Reconstruction * Gemini 10 Mission Report * Gemini 12 Mission Report * Gemini 3 70 Mm Photography Identification * Gemini 5 Mission Report * Gemini 6 Inertial Guidance System Evaluation & Trajectory Reconstruction * Gemini 6a Mission Report * Gemini 7 Inertial Guidance System Evaluation & Traject ...

This up-to-date electronic book on CD-ROM presents a comprehensive library of authoritative federal government scientific documents and publications covering all aspects of the threat posed to Earth by Near-Earth Objects (NEOs), asteroids, and comets. It provides a complete reproduction of the important March 2007 NASA report on NEO Survey and Deflection, an Analysis of Alternatives, plus complete coverage of Potentially Hazardous Objects (PHOs), impact risk assessment, and ongoing projects to detect, track, catalogue, and characterize these objects. There is detailed information about major NASA spacecraft missions studying asteroids and comets: DAWN, NEAR, STARDUST, DEEP IMPACT, and others.Asteroids and comets are the two types of potentially hazardous objects (PHO). For objects in the inner solar system, astronomers can distinguish these bodies on the basis of their appearance. Moving objects that appear as a star-like point of light are known as asteroids. Moving objects that appear diffuse or those that have visible tails are known as comets. People have known about comets since antiquity. The existence of asteroids, however, was not known until about 200 years ago when telescopes became powerful enough to detect the largest such objects. It has taken several generations of improvements in telescope design to detect and understand the small bodies that orbit near Earth. Differences in the appearance of comets and asteroids reflect in part a difference in their composition. Generally, asteroids are relatively rocky or metallic objects without atmospheres, while comets are composed in part of volatiles such as water ice that vaporizes when heated to produce a tenuous and transient atmosphere around the solid nucleus. Comets that are far from the Sun or those that have lost most of their volatiles can look like an asteroid. A volatile-rich object will develop an atmosphere only when heated sufficiently by a relatively close approach to the Sun. The near-Earth as ... Read more

This comprehensive electronic book on six CD-ROMs presents an incredible collection of fascinating and historic NASA technical reports and documents on Apollo. Eight years of hard work by thousands of Americans came to fruition on July 20, 1969, when Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong stepped out of the lunar module and took "one small step" in the Sea of Tranquility, calling it "a giant leap for mankind." Six of the missions landed on the moon, studying soil mechanics, meteoroids, seismic, heat flow, lunar ranging, magnetic fields and solar wind. An oxygen tank explosion forced Apollo 13 to scrub its landing, but the "can-do" problem solving of the crew and mission control turned the mission into a "successful failure." The program also drew inspiration from Apollo 1 astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee, who lost their lives in 1967.This is Set D of our four-set collection of Apollo program technical documents, with a focus on spacecraft systems and program procedures.

This electronic book on CD-ROM presents a library of federal government documents and publications covering all aspects of the threat posed to Earth by Near-Earth Objects (NEOs), and the Tunguska event which devastated a portion of Siberia in 1908.The Tunguska Event: The biggest meteor in recorded history shot across the Tunguska River in Russia in 1908, and exploded like a nuclear bomb. The Tunguska meteor did not make an impact crater, but some of the effects of its explosion are similar to what could happen in a large meteorite impact. At seven in the morning on June 30, 1908, a blazing meteor streaked across the sky in central Russia. It sped northwest from Lake Baikal toward the trading post of Baikit in central Siberia, an area of dense forests, wide swamps, and meandering rivers. Before reaching Baikit, the meteor exploded in a gigantic column of fire near the Tunguska River (61 N, 101.5 E). The effects of the explosion were felt worldwide. Around the globe scientists wondered at the rapid changes in atmospheric pressure and unusual vibrations in the Earth. People within a thousand kilometers of the explosion saw both the meteor and the fire column. They also heard the explosion like a series of bombs. Closer to the explosion, people felt the ground rumble and shake. At about a hundred kilometers from the explosion, people, animals and houses were scorched and thrown by a hot blast of air. Only a few people were nearer to the blast, and they reported fires, houses being blown down and burnt, and reindeer being killed by falling trees. For 20 kilometers around the center of the explosion, the forest was flattened, with the downed trees pointing away from the explosion. At the center of the blown down area, tree trunks still stood, but all their limbs had been stripped off.The Tunguska meteor and explosion were widely reported in newspapers and magazines. However, there was little scientific interest until 1927, when the Russian Academy of Sciences organize ... Read more
