There is a quarter inch white border around the color image. At the bottom edge in the white space there is the following text: JSCL-119 ASTRONAUT DONALD K. SLAYTON U. S. Government Printing Office 1974-779 888/2. The color image is of the full face of Deke Slayton in has astronaut space suit showing him from the waist up. Near his ungloved hands is a spacecraft mode. Across his chest he has inscribed the photograph as follows "Best wishes to Randy Sarbocher -- Deke Slayton." The back of the photograph is blank. Donald Kent "Deke" Slayton March 1 1924 – June 13 1993 was an American Air Force pilot aeronautical engineer test pilot and one of the original NASA Mercury Seven astronauts. He went on to become NASA's first Chief of the Astronaut Office and Director of Flight Crew Operations responsible for NASA crew assignments. Slayton joined the U.S. Army Air Forces during World War II and flew in Europe and the Pacific. He left the Army after World War II went on to receive a Bachelor of Science degree in aeronautical engineering from University of Minnesota in 1949 and later joined the Minnesota Air National Guard after working for Boeing as an aeronautical engineer. He joined the United States Air Force and attended the U.S. Air Force Test Pilot School in 1955. In 1959 he applied to and was selected as one of the Mercury Seven NASA's first class of astronauts. Slayton was scheduled to pilot the second U.S. crewed orbital spaceflight but was grounded in 1962 by atrial fibrillation. In March 1972 he was medically cleared to fly and was the docking module pilot of the 1975 Apollo–Soyuz Test Project ASTP. Slayton continued to work at NASA until 1982. He also helped develop the Space Shuttle. In January 1959 Slayton was selected as one of the candidates for NASA's Project Mercury the first U.S. crewed space flight program. Slayton was psychologically and physically tested at the Lovelace Clinic in Albuquerque New Mexico along with fellow future astronauts Scott Carpenter and Jim Lovell. On April 2 1959 Slayton was notified of his selection as an astronaut. After a decade of seeing doctors around the world in 1971 Slayton was examined at the Mayo Clinic after a long period without heart fibrillation and was determined to not have a coronary condition. On March 13 1972 NASA announced that Slayton had returned to flight status. The Apollo and Soyuz spacecraft both launched on July 15 1975. He was 51 years old making him the oldest astronaut to fly in space at the time. U. S. Government Printing Office unknown
200580249Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Exploration Systems Mission Directorate 2005. Draft Rev. 1. Disbound held together with a binder clip. Very good. vi 121 pages single-sided. Tables. Figures some with color. The Exploration Systems Mission Directorate known as ESMD at NASA Headquarters in Washington oversees the Constellation human research exploration technology development and lunar precursor robotic programs as well as the Commercial Orbital Transportation Services Project. The Constellation Program oversees work performed at a variety of NASA centers prime contractors and subcontractors located around the country. This work includes the Orion crew exploration vehicle the Ares I launch vehicle ground operations mission operations and extravehicular activity systems. The Constellation Program abbreviated CxP is a canceled crewed spaceflight program developed by NASA the space agency of the United States from 2005 to 2009. The major goals of the program were "completion of the International Space Station" and a "return to the Moon no later than 2020" with a crewed flight to the planet Mars as the ultimate goal. The program's logo reflected the three stages of the program: the Earth ISS the Moon and finally Mars—while the Mars goal also found expression in the name given to the program's booster rockets: Ares the Greek equivalent of the Roman god Mars. The technological aims of the program included the regaining of significant astronaut experience beyond low Earth orbit and the development of technologies necessary to enable sustained human presence on other planetary bodies. Constellation began in response to the goals laid out in the Vision for Space Exploration under NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe and President George W. Bush. O'Keefe's successor Michael D. Griffin ordered a complete review termed the Exploration Systems Architecture Study which reshaped how NASA would pursue the goals laid out in the Vision for Space Exploration and its findings were formalized by the NASA Authorization Act of 2005. The Act directed NASA to "develop a sustained human presence on the Moon including a robust precursor program to promote exploration science commerce and US preeminence in space and as a stepping stone to future exploration of Mars and other destinations." Work began on this revised Constellation Program to send astronauts first to the International Space Station then to the Moon and then to Mars and beyond. <br /> <br /> This Systems Engineering Management Plan is a rare surviving technical document from this canceled program. It addressed the System Engineering and Integration SE&I Approach the SE&I Roles and Responsibilities Pre-Phase A Systems Engineering and Integration Phase A Phase B Phase C Phase D and Phase E.

Very good. The format is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. There is a quarter inch white border around the color image. At the bottom edge in the white space there is the following text: Frank Borman. The color image is of the full face of Frank Borman in business suitfrom mid-thigh up. He is standing next to a model of a launch vehicle/rocker. Across his chest he has inscribed the photograph as follows "To Randy! Frank Borman." The back of the photograph has identifying text and states in part: "FRANK BORMAN one of a group of 9 astronauts selected in September 1962 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administrations. It also states that this photograph is a government publication and not subject to copyright. Frank Frederick Borman II March 14 1928 – November 7 2023 was an American United States Air Force USAF colonel aeronautical engineer NASA astronaut test pilot and businessman. He was the commander of Apollo 8 the first mission to fly around the Moon and together with crewmates Jim Lovell and William Anders became the first of 24 humans to do so for which he was awarded the Congressional Space Medal of Honor. Four days before he graduated with the West Point Class of 1950 in which he was ranked eighth out of 670 Borman was commissioned in the USAF. He qualified as a fighter pilot and served in the Philippines. He earned a Master of Science degree at Caltech in 1957 and then became an assistant professor of thermodynamics and fluid mechanics at West Point. In 1960 he was selected for Class 60-C at the USAF Experimental Flight Test Pilot School at Edwards Air Force Base in California and qualified as a test pilot. On graduation he was accepted as one of five students in the first class at the Aerospace Research Pilot School. Borman was selected as a NASA astronaut with the second group known as the Next Nine in 1962. In 1966 he set a fourteen-day spaceflight endurance record as commander of Gemini 7. He served on the NASA review board which investigated the Apollo 1 fire and then flew to the Moon with Apollo 8 in December 1968. The mission is known for the Earthrise photograph taken by Anders of the Earth rising above the lunar horizon as the Command/Service Module orbited the Moon and for the reading from Genesis which was televised to Earth from lunar orbit on Christmas Eve. During the Apollo 11 Moon landing mission he was the NASA liaison at the White House where he viewed the launch on television with President Richard Nixon. After retiring from NASA and the Air Force in 1970 Borman became senior vice president for operations at Eastern Air Lines. He became chief executive officer of Eastern in 1975 and chairman of the board in 1976. Under his leadership Eastern went through the four most profitable years in its history.

199183822Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 1991. Presumed First Edition First printing before correction to replace Discovery with Atlantis. Single sticker sheet printed on both sides. Good. RARE with Discovery attribution. Approximately 5 inches at its highest and 4 inches at its widest. Some soiling noted. STS-43 the ninth mission for Space Shuttle Atlantis was a 9 day mission whose primary goal was launching the TDRS-E satellite TDRS-5. The flight also tested an advanced heatpipe radiator for potential use on the then-future space station and conducted a variety of medical and materials science investigations. Apparently Space Shuttle Discovery was originally intended to fly this mission. From the text on the sticker's peelable back the STS-43 insignia portrays the evolution and continuity of the U.S. space program by highlighting 30 years of American manned spaceflight experience from Mercury to the Space Shuttle. The emergence of the shuttle Discovery from the outlined configuration of the Mercury space capsule commemorates this special relationship. The energy and momentum of launch are conveyed by the gradations of blue which mark the shuttle's ascent from Earth to space. Once in Earth orbit Discovery's cargo bay opens to reveal the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite which appears in gold emphasis against the white wings of Discovery and the stark blackness of space. As primary mission objective the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System will enable almost continuous communication from Earth to space for future space shuttle missions. The stars on the insignia are arranged to suggest this mission's STS number: four stars left of Shuttle and three starts to the right. NOTE: Later versions of the sticker properly reference the Shuttle Atlantis! The five astronauts are named on the front: Blaha Baker Lucid Adamson and Low. John Elmer Blaha born August 26 1942 in San Antonio Texas is a retired United States Air Force colonel and a former NASA astronaut. He is a veteran of five space missions aboard the Space Shuttle and Mir. Michael Allen Baker born October 27 1953 is a retired captain in the United States Navy former NASA astronaut and the International Space Station Program Manager for International and Crew Operations at NASA's Johnson Space Center. Shannon Matilda Wells Lucid born January 14 1943 is an American biochemist and retired NASA astronaut. At one time she held the record for the longest duration stay in space by an American as well as by a woman. She has flown in space five times including a prolonged mission aboard the Mir space station in 1996; she is the only American woman to have served aboard Mir. George David Low February 19 1956 - March 15 2008 was an American aerospace executive and a NASA astronaut. In addition to holding some technical assignments he logged more than 700 hours in space including stints on the Columbia the Atlantis and the Endeavour Space Shuttles before he left NASA in 1996. James Craig Adamson born March 3 1946 is a former NASA astronaut and retired Colonel of the United States Army. James Adamson flew on two missions STS-28 and STS-43 and completed 263 orbits and 334 hours in space. In terms of mission highlights the primary payload TDRS-E attached to an Inertial Upper Stage IUS was deployed about six hours into flight and the IUS propelled the satellite into geosynchronous orbit. TDRS-5 became the fourth member of the orbiting TDRS cluster. Secondary payloads were Space Station Heat Pipe Advanced Radiator Element SHARE II; Shuttle Solar Backscatter Ultra-Violet SSBUV instrument; Tank Pressure Control Equipment TPCE and Optical Communications Through Windows OCTW. Other experiments included Auroral Photography Experiment APE-B Protein Crystal Growth Ill PCG Ill; Bioserve / Instrumentation Technology Associates Materials Dispersion Apparatus BIMDA; Investigations into Polymer Membrane Processing IPMP; Space Acceleration Measurement System SAMS; Solid Surface Combustion Experiment SSCE; Ultraviolet Plume imager UVPI; and the Air Force Maui Optical Site AMOS experiment. TDRS-E which became TDRS-5 on orbit was successfully boosted to geosynchronous orbit at more than 22000 miles 35400 km 22000 mi above Earth by two firings of the Inertial Upper Stage IUS booster the last of which occurred approximately 12½ hours into the mission. TDRS then deployed its antennas and solar panels and separation from the IUS took place less than 45 minutes later. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

Very good. ii 164 pages plus covers. This also has the logo of the United Space Alliance on the front cover. STS-135 ISS assembly flight ULF7 was the 135th and final mission of the American Space Shuttle program. It used the orbiter Atlantis and hardware originally processed for the STS-335 contingency mission which was not flown. STS-135 launched on July 8 2011 and landed on July 21 2011 following a one-day mission extension. The four-person crew was the smallest of any shuttle mission since STS-6 in April 1983. The mission's primary cargo was the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module MPLM Raffaello and a Lightweight Multi-Purpose Carrier LMC which were delivered to the International Space Station ISS. The flight of Raffaello marked the only time that Atlantis carried an MPLM. This press kit covers the Space Shuttle History; STS-135 Mission Timeline Profile and Objectives; Mission Personnel; STS-135 Atlantis Crew; Payload Overview; Rendezvous and Docking; Spacewalks; STS-135 Experiments; Shuttle Reference Data; Launch & Landing; Acronyms & Abbreviations; Media Assistance; Public Affairs Contacts; and The Future. Although the mission was authorized it initially had no appropriation in the NASA budget raising questions about whether the mission would fly. On January 20 2011 program managers changed STS-335 to STS-135 on the flight manifest. This allowed for training and other mission specific preparations. On February 13 2011 program managers told their workforce that STS-135 would fly regardless of the funding situation via a continuing resolution. Until this point there had been no official references to the STS-135 mission in NASA documentation for the general public. During an address at the Marshall Space Flight Center on November 16 2010 NASA administrator Charles Bolden said that the agency needed to fly STS-135 to the station in 2011 due to possible delays in the development of commercial rockets and spacecraft designed to transport cargo to the ISS. "We are hoping to fly a third shuttle mission in addition to STS-133 and STS-134 in June 2011 what everybody calls the launch-on-need mission. and that's really needed to buy down the risk for the development time for commercial cargo" Bolden said. The mission was included in NASA's 2011 authorization which was signed into law on October 11 2010 but funding remained dependent on a subsequent appropriations bill. United Space Alliance signed a contract extension for the mission along with STS-134; the contract contained six one-month options with NASA in order to support continuing operations. The federal budget approved in April 2011 called for US$5.5 billion for NASA's space operations division including the shuttle and space station programs. According to NASA the budget running through September 30 2011 ended all concerns about funding the STS-135 mission. On July 21 2011 NASA hosted an employee appreciation event outside OPF-2 with Atlantis parked. Cheryl Hurst the director of education and external relations at KSC spoke first and invited Susan Lambert to lead the crowd with the American national anthem. A pledge of allegiance followed from KSC children and NASA Administrator Charles Bolden and KSC Director Robert Cabana spoke to the shuttle program employees. During the event Rita Wilcoxson and Patricia Stratton were presented with highest NASA honors: the Distinguished Service Medal and the Distinguished Public Service Medal respectively. The citations on both were identical stating "for continuous outstanding leadership contributions provided to the nation's space shuttle program". A public "welcome home" ceremony was held for the crew at Houston's Ellington Field Hangar 990 on July 22. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

Folder with multiple inserts The Jet Propulsion Laboratory is a research development and flight center owned by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and operated by the California Institute of Technology. JPL's primary responsibility is the investigation of the solar system with automated scientific spacecraft. The Laboratory's activities however are not limited to space exploration. The basic research and development in support of space exploration involves a broad spectrum of scientific and engineering disciplines; the resulting technological and managerial capabilities are finding increasing application to medical and environmental problems on earth especially in the area of solar energy research. To provide spacecraft tracking and communications for deep-space missions JPL designed developed and manages the Deep Space Network DSN with stations in California Spain and Australia. The twin Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft are exploring where nothing from Earth has flown before. Continuing on their more-than-40-year journey since their 1977 launches they each are much farther away from Earth and the sun than Pluto. In August 2012 Voyager 1 made the historic entry into interstellar space the region between stars filled with material ejected by the death of nearby stars millions of years ago. Voyager 2 entered interstellar space on November 5 2018 and scientists hope to learn more about this region. Both spacecraft are still sending scientific information about their surroundings through the Deep Space Network or DSN. The primary mission was the exploration of Jupiter and Saturn. After making a string of discoveries there — such as active volcanoes on Jupiter's moon Io and intricacies of Saturn's rings — the mission was extended.
