Internet research dated this picture as from 1971. Across his chest he has inscribed the photograph as follows "To Randy with Best wishes! Vance Brand." The back of the photograph is blank. Vance DeVoe Brand born May 9 1931 is a retired American naval officer aviator aeronautical engineer test pilot and NASA astronaut. He served as command module pilot during the first U.S.-Soviet joint spaceflight in 1975 and as commander of three Space Shuttle missions. Brand's flight experience includes 9669 flying hours which includes 8089 hours in jets 391 hours in helicopters 746 hours in spacecraft and checkout in more than 30 types of military aircraft. One of the 19 pilot astronauts selected by NASA in April 1966 Brand initially was a crew member in the thermal vacuum chamber testing of the prototype command module alongside astronauts Joe Engle and Dr. Joseph Kerwin and support crewman on Apollos 8 and 13. During the Apollo 13 crisis Brand was CAPCOM during the PC2 burn. Later he was backup Command Module Pilot for Apollo 15 and was likely to be named to the prime crew of Apollo 18 before that mission was canceled. Brand was backup commander for Skylabs 3 and 4. When Skylab 3's CSM had problems with its Reaction Control System Brand was put on standby to command a rescue mission with backup Pilot Don Lind; however the crew stood down when it was decided that the problem did not require the rescue mission to be launched. As an astronaut he held management positions relating to spacecraft development acquisition flight safety and mission operations. Brand flew on four space missions; Apollo–Soyuz STS-5 STS-41-B and STS-35. He commanded three missions. Brand was the last member of his astronaut class to remain active with NASA and was the only Apollo-era astronaut to pilot the Space Shuttle in the post-Challenger era. Brand departed the Astronaut Office in 1992 to become Chief of Plans at the National Aerospace Plane NASP Joint Program Office at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. In September 1994 he moved to California to become Assistant Chief of Flight Operations at the Dryden Flight Research Center then Acting Chief Engineer Deputy Director for Aerospace Projects and Acting Associate Center Director for Programs. He retired from NASA in January 2008. U. S. Government Printing Office unknown

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

Astronaut Young Salutes Flag At Apollo 16 Descartes Landing Site. NASA Photograph; 799-250/7 MSCL--85
Washington DC: U.S. Government Printing Office 1972. Presumed First Edition First printing. This is one of multiple originals issued. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. Charles M. Duke Jr. Photographer. The format is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. This is a single sheet with printing/imagery on both sides in a plastic sleeve. On the front side is a large color photograph of Astronaut John W. Young Commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission saluting the U.S. flat as the Descartes landing site. At the center of the image is the American Flag fully unfurled and the space suited Astronaut with his right arm raised in salute. The Lunar Landing Module is behind the flag on the left side of the image as is the Lunar Roving Vehicle. In the background behind the flag and Astronaut Young is the Far Ultraviolet Camera/Spectrograph. There is a lengthy caption on the back which reads APOLLO 16 EVA PHOTOGRAPH--Astronaut John W. Young commander of the Apollo 16 lunar landing mission leaps from the lunar surface as he salutes the U.S. flag at the Descartes landing site during the first Apollo 16 extravehicular activity EVA-1. Astronaut Charles M. Duke Jr. lunar module pilot took this picture. The Lunar Module "Orion" is on the left. The Lunar Roving Vehicle is parked besides the LM. The object behind Young in the shade of the LM is the Far Ultraviolet Camera/Spectrograph. Stone Mountain dominates the background in this lunar scene. Apollo 16 April 16-27 1972 was the tenth crewed mission in the United States Apollo space program administered by NASA and the fifth and penultimate to land on the Moon. It was the second of Apollo's "J missions" with an extended stay on the lunar surface a focus on science and the use of the Lunar Roving Vehicle LRV. The landing and exploration were in the Descartes Highlands a site chosen because some scientists expected it to be an area formed by volcanic action though this proved not to be the case. The mission was crewed by Commander John Young Lunar Module Pilot Charles Duke and Command Module Pilot Ken Mattingly. Launched from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on April 16 1972 Apollo 16 experienced a number of minor glitches en route to the Moon. These culminated with a problem with the spacecraft's main engine that resulted in a six-hour delay in the Moon landing as NASA managers contemplated having the astronauts abort the mission and return to Earth before deciding the problem could be overcome. Although they permitted the lunar landing NASA had the astronauts return from the mission one day earlier than planned. After flying the Lunar Module to the Moon's surface on April 21 Young and Duke spent 71 hours—just under three days—on the lunar surface during which they conducted three extravehicular activities or moonwalks totaling 20 hours and 14 minutes. The pair drove the lunar rover the second used on the Moon for 16.6 miles. On the surface Young and Duke collected 211 lbs of lunar samples for return to Earth including Big Muley the largest Moon rock collected during the Apollo missions. During this time Mattingly orbited the Moon in the command and service module CSM taking photos and operating scientific instruments. Mattingly in the command module spent 126 hours and 64 revolutions in lunar orbit. After Young and Duke rejoined Mattingly in lunar orbit the crew released a subsatellite from the service module SM. During the return trip to Earth Mattingly performed a one-hour spacewalk to retrieve several film cassettes from the exterior of the service module. Apollo 16 returned safely to Earth on April 27 1972. John Watts Young September 24 1930 - January 5 2018 was an American astronaut naval officer and aviator test pilot and aeronautical engineer. He became the 9th person to walk on the Moon as commander of the Apollo 16 mission in 1972. He is the only astronaut to fly on four different classes of spacecraft: Gemini the Apollo command and service module the Apollo Lunar Module and the Space Shuttle. Before becoming an astronaut Young received his Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering from the Georgia Institute of Technology and joined the U.S. Navy. After serving during the Korean War he became a naval aviator and graduated from the U.S. Naval Test Pilot School. As a test pilot he set several world time-to-climb records. Young retired from the Navy in 1976 with the rank of captain. In 1962 Young was selected as a member of NASA Astronaut Group 2. He flew on the first crewed Gemini mission Gemini 3 in 1965 and then commanded the 1966 Gemini 10 mission. In 1969 he flew as command module pilot on Apollo 10 and became the first person to orbit the Moon alone. In 1972 he commanded Apollo 16 and spent three days on the lunar surface exploring the Descartes Highlands with Charles Duke. Young also commanded STS-1 in 1981 the Space Shuttle program's first launch and STS-9 in 1983 both of which were on Columbia. Young served as Chief of the Astronaut Office from 1974 to 1987 and retired from NASA in 2004 after 42 years of service. U.S. Government Printing Office unknown

National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Kennedy Space Center
Atlantis OV-104; NASA Facts FS-2011-3-047-KSC
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Kennedy Space Center 2011. Presumed First Edition First printing one of multiple origins. Single sheet printed on both sides. Good. The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. There is an illustration of the orbiter on the booster on the front side. The other side lists the 32 completed missions and the 33rd mission targeted for June 28 2011. This is an ephemeral items and only a relatively few copies have likely survived. Space Shuttle Atlantis Orbiter Vehicle designation: OV-104 is a retired Space Shuttle orbiter vehicle which belongs to NASA the spaceflight and space exploration agency of the United States.Atlantis was manufactured by the Rockwell International company in Southern California and was delivered to the Kennedy Space Center in Eastern Florida in April 1985. Atlantis is also the fourth operational and the second-to-last Space Shuttle built. Its maiden flight was STS-51-J made from October 3 to 7 1985. <br /> Atlantis embarked on its 33rd and final mission also the final mission of a space shuttle STS-135 on July 8 2011. STS-134 by Endeavour was expected to be the final flight before STS-135 was authorized in October 2010. STS-135 took advantage of the processing for the STS-335 Launch on Need mission that would have been necessary if STS-134's crew became stranded in orbit. Atlantis landed for the final time at the Kennedy Space Center on July 21 2011. By the end of its final mission Atlantis had orbited the Earth a total of 4848 times traveling nearly 126000000 miles which is more than 525 times the distance from the Earth to the Moon.Atlantis is named after RV Atlantis a sailing ship that operated as the primary research vessel for the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution from 1930 to 1966 Space Shuttle Atlantis lifted off on its maiden voyage STS-51-J on October 3 1985. This was the second shuttle mission that was a dedicated Department of Defense mission. It flew one other mission STS-61-B the second shuttle night launch before the Challenger disaster temporarily grounded the shuttle fleet in 1986. Among the five Space Shuttles flown into space Atlantis conducted a subsequent mission in the shortest time after the previous mission turnaround time when it launched in November 1985 on STS-61-B only 50 days after its previous mission STS-51-J in October 1985. Atlantis was then used for ten flights from 1988 to 1992. Two of these deployed the planetary probes Magellan to Venus on STS-30 and Galileo to Jupiter on STS-34. With STS-30 Atlantis became the first Space Shuttle to launch an interplanetary probe. During the launch of STS-27 in 1988 a piece of insulation shed from the right solid rocket booster struck the underside of the vehicle severely damaging over 700 tiles and removing one tile altogether. The crew were instructed to use the remote manipulator system to survey the condition of the underside of the right wing ultimately finding substantial tile damage. The only images transferred to the mission control center were encrypted and of extremely poor quality. Mission control personnel deemed the damage to be "lights and shadows" and instructed the crew to proceed with the mission as usual infuriating many of the crew. Upon landing Atlantis became the single-most-damaged shuttle to successfully land. A similar situation would eventually lead to the loss of the shuttle Columbia in 2003 albeit on the more critical reinforced carbon-carbon. During STS-37 in 1991 Atlantis deployed the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory. Beginning in 1995 with STS-71 Atlantis made seven straight flights to the former Russian space station Mir as part of the Shuttle-Mir program. STS-71 marked a number of firsts in human spaceflight: 100th U.S. crewed space flight; first U.S. Shuttle-Russian Space Station Mir docking and joint on-orbit operations; and first on-orbit change-out of shuttle crew. When linked Atlantis and Mir together formed the largest spacecraft in orbit at the time. Atlantis delivered several vital components for the construction of the International Space Station ISS. During the February 2001 mission STS-98 to the ISS Atlantis delivered the Destiny Module the primary operating facility for U.S. research payloads aboard the ISS. The five-hour 25-minute third spacewalk performed by astronauts Robert Curbeam and Thomas Jones during STS-98 marked NASA's 100th extra vehicular activity in space. The Quest Joint Airlock was flown and installed to the ISS by Atlantis during the mission STS-104 in July 2001. The successful installation of the airlock gave on-board space station crews the ability to stage repair and maintenance spacewalks outside the ISS using U.S. EMU or Russian Orlan space suits. On ISS assembly flight STS-122 in February 2008 Atlantis delivered the Columbus laboratory to the ISS. Columbus laboratory is the largest single contribution to the ISS made by the European Space Agency ESA. In May 2009 Atlantis flew a seven-member crew to the Hubble Space Telescope for its Servicing Mission 4 STS-125. The mission was a success with the crew completing five spacewalks totaling 37 hours to install new cameras batteries a gyroscope and other components to the telescope. The longest mission flown using Atlantis was STS-117 which lasted almost 14 days in June 2007. During STS-117 Atlantis' crew added a new starboard truss segment and solar array pair the S3/S4 truss folded the P6 array in preparation for its relocation and performed four spacewalks. During the STS-129 post-flight interview on November 16 2009 shuttle launch director Mike Leinbach said that Atlantis officially beat Space Shuttle Discovery for the record low amount of interim problem reports with a total of just 54 listed since returning from STS-125.

Beyond Einstein; From the Big Bang to Black Holes. NP-2006-11-801-GSFC
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2007. Third Printing stated. Wraps. Very good. 12 pages plus covers. Illustrations color. Sources of Further Information. How did the Universe begin Does time have a beginning and an end Does space have edges Einstein's theory of relativity replied to these ancient questions with three startling predictions: that the Universe is expanding from a Big Bang; that black holes so distort space and time that time stops at their edges; and that a dark energy could be pulling space apart sending galaxies forever beyond the edge of the visible Universe. Observations confirm these remarkable predictions the last finding only four years ago. Yet Einstein's legacy is incomplete. His theory raises - but cannot answer - three profound questions: What powered the Big Bang What happens to space time and matter at the edge of a black hole and What is the mysterious dark energy pulling the Universe apart The Beyond Einstein program within NASA's office of space science aims to answer these questions employing a series of missions linked by powerful new technologies and complementary approaches to shared science goals. The program also serves as a potent force with which to enhance science education and science literacy. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA is an independent agency of the executive branch of the United States federal government responsible for the civilian space program as well as aeronautics and aerospace research. President Dwight D. Eisenhower established NASA in 1958 with a distinctly civilian rather than military orientation encouraging peaceful applications in space science. The agency became operational on October 1 1958. Since that time most US space exploration efforts have been led by NASA including the Apollo Moon landing missions the Skylab space station and later the Space Shuttle. The agency is also responsible for the Launch Services Program LSP which provides oversight of launch operations and countdown management for unmanned NASA launches. NASA science is focused on better understanding Earth through the Earth Observing System advancing heliophysics through the efforts of the Science Mission Directorate's Heliophysics Research Program exploring bodies throughout the Solar System with advanced robotic spacecraft missions and researching astrophysics topics.
