PDF-(READ)-Apollo 17: The NASA Mission Reports Vol 1: Apogee Books Space Series 29

Apollo 17 documented in these reports was the first mission to make it possible for a qualified geologist to explore the moon. The new mission named EPOXI is comprised of two projects with di fferent scientific objectives The first is called Extrasolar Planet Observations and Characterization EPOCh and made extrasolar planet observations The second is called Deep Impact Ext Safety Message.

Few of man\'s technological endeavors compare in scope of significance to the development of the Saturn family of launch vehicles. It was as if the Wright Brothers had gone from building their original Wright Flyer in 1903 to developing a supersonic Concorde in 1913. Unimaginable yet in 10 short years the builders of Saturn progressed from the small, single-engine rockets like Redstone to the giant vehicle with clustered engines that put man on the moon. Our Earth-to-orbit weight-lifting capability grew in that decade by 10 thousand times. Saturn was an engineering masterpiece. The ultimate Saturn, taller than the Statue of Liberty, had a takeoff weight that exceeded that of 25 fully loaded jet airliners, and produced as much power as 85 Hoover Dams.We may not soon again face a challenge to match the lunar landing, and it may be some time before we mount the kind of scientific and engineering effort that gave us Saturn. Whenever that next challenge comes, we have in the Apollo-Saturn program the basic blueprint for achieving success. It not only will point the way but will also give the confidence needed to undertake new and dramatic challenges.Among the other lessons learned from the development of Saturn is the evidence of how much a free society can do and how far a dedicated people can go when they are properly challenged, led, motivated, and supported. This is our legacy from Saturn.This book is a technological history. The narrative approach was largely predicated on questions that might well be asked by future generations: How were the Saturns made? How did they work? The bulk of the text is devoted to the theme of technological development. For all the spectacular effects of the Saturn vehicle\'s awesome launch, most of the Saturn story deals with many years of unglamorous research, development, and test. It is a story of prior work: of nuts, bolts, and pyrotechnics-and that is the story told in these pages.535 pages. Over 150 photos and illustrations. Contents hyperlinked for easy navigation. The X-15 program, which produced mountains of new information about hypersonic flight, is thoroughly outlined in this volume. Chronicles all of the details of the space shuttle Columbia\'s first five flights.
