Lower corner of several pages and lower corner of rear cover bent/creased. This was produced for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. In the fall of 1966 the National Aeronautics and Space Administration asked the National Academy of Sciences to conduct a study on "the probable future usefulness of satellites in practical Earth-oriented applications." This study would obtain the recommendations of highly qualified scientists and engineers on the nature and scope of the research and development program needed to provide the technology required to exploit this applications. NASA subsequently asked that the study include an analysis of cost-benefit relationships. Designed "The Summer Study on Space Applications" work began in January 1967 guided by a Central Review Committee CRC appointed by the academy. Technical panels were convened to study practical space applications and worked intensively during the summers of 1967 and 1968. The work of each of the 13 panels was then reported to the CEC with produced an overall report. The Panel on Point-to-Point communications compiled an interim report during the summer of 1967. This final report was prepared under the direction of Dr. Samuel Lutz. The major part of the Study was accomplished by the panels; the function of the CRC was to review their work to evaluate their findings and in the context of the total national picture to derive certain conclusions and recommendations. The Committee was impressed by the quality of the panels' work and asked that the panel reports be made available to specialized audiences. Among the areas where Panel 9 made recommendations were: Fixed-Reflector Movable-Beam antenna Retrodirective Array Ionic Thrusters Radio Interferomenter Low-Noise Amplifier Launch Vehicles Shared Bands Spectrum Allocations Shielding Earth Stations and Space to Space links. In telecommunications a point-to-point connection refers to a communications connection between two communication endpoints or nodes. An example is a telephone call in which one telephone is connected with one other and what is said by one caller can only be heard by the other. This is contrasted with a point-to-multipoint or broadcast connection in which many nodes can receive information transmitted by one node. Other examples of point-to-point communications links are leased lines and microwave radio relay. Point-to-point is sometimes abbreviated as P2P. National Academy of Sciences paperback

Kellogg Very good. These two volumes cover research requested by NASA's Office of Advanced Research & Technology and the Space Science Board which in 1966 initiated studies of the physiological problems of manned space flight. The two-part study on respiratory physiology and circulatory physiology were done by a team of experts who wrote the report published here. Due to the complexity of problems relating to the unknown possible effects of prolonged space flight on the circulatory system these studies were vital to the success of NASA programs. / PROVENANCE: Ralph H. Kellogg 1920-2009 matriculated to the medical school at the University of Rochester then after WWII he taught at the Dept. of Physiology at Harvard Medical School taking his Ph.D. in 1953 then he joined UC Berkeley and then UCSF as Professor of Physiology where he worked for more than 50 years specializing in renal and respiratory physiology with particular attention to physiology of high altitude. "Facilities were primitive and they were subjects for their own experiments. Their measurements yielded additional information about the control of breathing that helps people adjust to the lack of oxygen pressure in the air. Very few physiologists in the world had laboratory facilities to work at such high altitude and Ralph came to know most of them." He also collected rare books on mountaineering clearly relating this interest to the study of high altitude conditions and the human experience. National Academy of Sciences, 1967-8.
