194486756Washington DC: United States Navy Bureau of Aeronautics Special Devices Division 1944. Presumed First Edition First printing. Collectible Cards boxed in Card deck package. Good. Set of 54 cards with black and white photographs on one side and silhouette images of Japanese Aircraft on the other side. Each card marked RESTRICTED and date August 1944. Believed to be a complete set comparable to a playing card deck with 52 standard cards and two jokers. Box has some wear and soiling. The Bureau of Aeronautics BuAer was the U.S. Navy's material-support organization for naval aviation from 1921 to 1959. The bureau had "cognizance" i.e. responsibility for the design procurement and support of naval aircraft and related systems. Aerial weapons however were under the cognizance of the Navy's Bureau of Ordnance BuOrd. World War II brought immense changes as well. BuAer was forced to expand rapidly in order to comply with the nation's defense needs. By the war's end the bureau had developed an administrative structure that oversaw thousands of personnel and the procurement and maintenance of tens of thousands of aircraft. In 1943 the Navy established the position of Deputy Chief of Naval Operations for Air or DCNOAir a move which relieved some of BuAer's responsibility for Fleet operations. RADM McCain now promoted to vice admiral was the first to fill the position. It is likely that this set was produced to be used in the Pacific Theater possibly in connection with the planned invasion of the Japanese Home Islands that was made unnecessary by the Atomic Bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the subsequent Unconditional Surrender of Japan.

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.

201186129Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2011. Xerox-style reproduction. Presumed to be one of only a few copies made for media representatives. Stapled at upper left corner. Very good. 25 1 pages. Illustrations. Contents include Media Services Information; Quick Facts; Jupiter at a Glance; Why Juno; Mission Overview; Mission Phases; Spacecraft; Science Overview; Missions to Jupiter; and Program/Project Management. Juno is a NASA space probe orbiting the planet Jupiter. It was built by Lockheed Martin and is operated by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. The spacecraft was launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station on August 5 2011 UTC as part of the New Frontiers program. Juno entered a polar orbit of Jupiter on July 5 2016 UTC to begin a scientific investigation of the planet. After completing its mission Juno will be intentionally deorbited into Jupiter's atmosphere. Juno's mission is to measure Jupiter's composition gravitational field magnetic field and polar magnetosphere. It will also search for clues about how the planet formed including whether it has a rocky core the amount of water present within the deep atmosphere mass distribution and its deep winds which can reach speeds up to 390 mph. Juno is the second spacecraft to orbit Jupiter after the nuclear powered Galileo orbiter which orbited from 1995 to 2003. Juno is powered by solar panels commonly used by satellites orbiting Earth and working in the inner Solar System whereas radioisotope thermoelectric generators are commonly used for missions to the outer Solar System and beyond. For Juno however the three largest solar panel wings ever deployed on a planetary probe play an integral role in stabilizing the spacecraft as well as generating power. During the science mission infrared and microwave instruments will measure the thermal radiation emanating from deep within Jupiter's atmosphere. These observations will complement previous studies of its composition by assessing the abundance and distribution of water and therefore oxygen. This data will provide insight into Jupiter's origins. Juno will also investigate the convection that drives natural circulation patterns in Jupiter's atmosphere. Other instruments aboard Juno will gather data about its gravitational field and polar magnetosphere. The Juno mission was planned to conclude in February 2018 after completing 37 orbits of Jupiter but now has been commissioned through 2025 to do a further 42 additional orbits of Jupiter as well as close flybys of Ganymede Europa and Io. The probe was then intended to be deorbited and burnt up in Jupiter's outer atmosphere to avoid any possibility of impact and biological contamination of one of its moons. The Juno spacecraft's suite of science instruments will: Determine the ratio of oxygen to hydrogen effectively measuring the abundance of water in Jupiter which will help distinguish among prevailing theories linking Jupiter's formation to the Solar System; Obtain a better estimate of Jupiter's core mass which will also help distinguish among prevailing theories linking Jupiter's formation to the Solar System; Precisely map Jupiter's gravitational field to assess the distribution of mass in Jupiter's interior including properties of its structure and dynamics; Precisely map Jupiter's magnetic field to assess the origin and structure of the field and the depth at which the planet's magnetic field is created. This experiment will also help scientists understand the fundamental physics of dynamo theory; Map the variation in atmospheric composition temperature structure cloud opacity and dynamics to pressures far greater than 100 bar 10 MPa; 1500 psi at all latitudes; Characterize and explore the three-dimensional structure of Jupiter's polar magnetosphere and auroras; and Measure the orbital frame-dragging known also as Lense-Thirring precession caused by the angular momentum of Jupiter and possibly a new test of general relativity effects connected with the Jovian rotation.

Contents include Center Director's Message; NASA Vision and Mission; KSC Goals and Principles; The President's Management Agenca; Significant Events; Expendable Launch Vehicle Program; Space Shuttle Program; Shuttle Upgrades; International Space Station and Shuttle Payload Processing; Payload Carriers Program; Spaceport and Range Technologies; Future Vehicles; Safety and Health First; Environmental Stewardship; Partnerships; Outreach to the World; Education; KSC Business Report; Economic Impact; Workforce Diversity; Procurement Report; and Financial Statement. The John F. Kennedy Space Center KSC originally known as the NASA Launch Operations Center located on Merritt Island Florida is one of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's NASA ten field centers. Since December 1968 KSC has been NASA's primary launch center of human spaceflight. Launch operations for the Apollo Skylab and Space Shuttle programs were carried out from Kennedy Space Center Launch Complex 39 and managed by KSC. Located on the east coast of Florida KSC is adjacent to Cape Canaveral Space Force Station CCSFS. The management of the two entities work very closely together share resources and operate facilities on each other's property. Though the first Apollo flights and all Project Mercury and Project Gemini flights took off from the then-Cape Canaveral Air Force Station the launches were managed by KSC and its previous organization the Launch Operations Directorate. Starting with the fourth Gemini mission the NASA launch control center in Florida Mercury Control Center later the Launch Control Center began handing off control of the vehicle to the Mission Control Center in Houston shortly after liftoff; in prior missions it held control throughout the entire mission. Additionally the center manages launch of robotic and commercial crew missions and researches food production and in-situ resource utilization for off-Earth exploration. Since 2010 the center has worked to become a multi-user spaceport through industry partnerships even adding a new launch pad LC-39C in 2015. There are about 700 facilities and buildings grouped throughout the center's 144000 acres. Among the unique facilities at KSC are the 525-foot tall Vehicle Assembly Building for stacking NASA's largest rockets the Launch Control Center which conducts space launches at KSC the Operations and Checkout Building which houses the astronauts dormitories and suit-up area a Space Station factory and a 3-mile long Shuttle Landing Facility. There is also a Visitor Complex on site that is open to the public. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Kennedy Space Center paperback

200986131Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2009. Presumed First Edition First printing. Comb binding. Very good. 31 3 pages including covers. Contents include Media Services Information; Quick Facts; NASA's Search for Habitable Planets; Scientific Goals and Objectives; Mission Overview; Spacecraft; Instrument - Photometer; Selecting the Kepler Star Field; Education and Public Outreach; Other Exoplanet Activities; Science Team; and Project Management. The Kepler space telescope is a disused space telescope launched by NASA in 2009 to discover Earth-sized planets orbiting other stars. Named after astronomer Johannes Kepler the spacecraft was launched into an Earth-trailing heliocentric orbit. The principal investigator was William J. Borucki. After nine and a half years of operation the telescope's reaction control system fuel was depleted and NASA announced its retirement on October 30 2018.<br /> Designed to survey a portion of Earth's region of the Milky Way to discover Earth-size exoplanets in or near habitable zones and estimate how many of the billions of stars in the Milky Way have such planets Kepler's sole scientific instrument is a photometer that continually monitored the brightness of approximately 150000 main sequence stars in a fixed field of view. These data were transmitted to Earth then analyzed to detect periodic dimming caused by exoplanets that cross in front of their host star. Only planets whose orbits are seen edge-on from Earth could be detected. Kepler observed 530506 stars and detected 2778 confirmed planets as of June 16 2023. By January 2015 Kepler and its follow-up observations had found 1013 confirmed exoplanets in about 440 star systems along with a further 3199 unconfirmed planet candidates. Four planets have been confirmed through Kepler's K2 mission. In November 2013 astronomers estimated based on Kepler space mission data that there could be as many as 40 billion rocky Earth-size exoplanets orbiting in the habitable zones of Sun-like stars and red dwarfs within the Milky Way. It is estimated that 11 billion of these planets may be orbiting Sun-like stars. The nearest such planet may be 3.7 parsecs 12 ly away according to the scientists. On January 6 2015 NASA announced the 1000th confirmed exoplanet discovered by the Kepler space telescope. Four of the newly confirmed exoplanets were found to orbit within habitable zones of their related stars: three of the four Kepler-438b Kepler-442b and Kepler-452b are almost Earth-size and likely rocky; the fourth Kepler-440b is a super-Earth. On May 10 2016 NASA verified 1284 new exoplanets found by Kepler the single largest finding of planets to date. Kepler data has also helped scientists observe and understand supernovae; measurements were collected every half-hour so the light curves were especially useful for studying these types of astronomical events.
