Crew of Space Shuttle Mission STS-135 NASA Photograph; LG-2011-03-009-JSC
Houston TX: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Johnson Space Center 2011. Presumed First Edition First printing of multiple originals. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 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 the four astronauts/Shuttle Crew members. On the other side are primarily four columns of text one column for each of the crew members with a small one-column spread with a picture of the four crew members at the top left corner and a larger two-column spread with an illustration of the STS-135 Mission Patch and a text description. The four crew members were Commander Christopher J. Ferguson Captain United States Navy ret. Pilot Douglas G. Hurley Colonel U.S. Marine Corps Mission Specialist Sandra H. Magnus Ph.D. and Mission Specialist Rex J. Wallheim Colonel U.S. Air Force ret. The STS-135 patch represent the Space Shuttle embarking on its mission to resupply the International Space Station. The Shuttle is centered over elements of the NASA emblem depicting how the Space Shuttle has been at the heart of NASA for the previous 30 years. The Patch also pays tribute to the entire NASA and contractor team that made possible all the incredible accomplishments of the Space Shuttle. Omega the last letter in the Greek alphabet signifies that this mission is the last flight of the Space Shuttle Program. 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. 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. The reduced crew size also allowed the mission to maximize the payload carried to the ISS.20 It was the only time that a Shuttle crew of four flew to the ISS. The last shuttle mission to fly with just four crew members occurred 28 years earlier. The Multi-Purpose Logistics Module MPLM Raffaello made up the majority of the payload. This was Raffaello's fourth trip to the International Space Station since 2001 and the 12th use of an MPLM. Unlike previous MPLM missions that delivered large compartments and devices to outfit the space station laboratories STS-135 delivered only bags and supply containers. The MPLM was filled with 16 resupply racks which is the maximum that it could handle. Eight Resupply Stowage Platforms RSPs two Integrated Stowage Platforms ISPs six Resupply Stowage Racks RSRs and one Zero-G Stowage Rack ZSR which sits above another rack during transport. On flight day 4 Raffaello was lifted out of Atlantis's payload bay using the station's Canadarm2. It was berthed to nadir port of the Harmony node. After completing the cargo transfers to the ISS Raffaello was loaded with almost 5700 pounds of unneeded equipment and station waste to be brought back to Earth. On flight day 11 the MPLM was detached from Harmony and was secured in the cargo bay of the shuttle. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Johnson Space Center unknown

Crew of Space Shuttle Mission STS-133 NASA Photograph; LG-2010-08-024-JSC
Houston TX: National Astronautics and Space Administration Johnson Space Center 2010. Presumed First Edition First printing. This is one of multiple originals issued. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 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 the six members of the Crew of Space Shuttle Mission STS-133. On the other side there are four columns. At the top of the left column is a small photograph of the crew with last names present. At the bottom of the right two columns is a description of the STS-133 mission patch. The crew members were Commander Steven W. Lindsey Colonel USAF RET. Pilot Eric A. Boe Colonel USAF Specialist Benjamin Alvin Drew Jr. Colonel USAF Specialist Timothy L. Kopra Colonel USA Specialist Michael R. Barratt M.D and Specialist Nicole Passonne Stott. Tim Kopra was injured and was replaced by Stephen Bowen--making this photograph a rarity. In the foreground a solitary orbiter ascends into a dark blue sky above a roiling fiery plume. A spray of stars surrounds the orbiter and a top lit crescent forms the background behind the ascent. The mission number STS-133 is emblazoned on the patch center and crewmembers' names are listed on a sky-blue border around the scene. The Shuttle Discovery is depicted ascending on a plume of flame as if it is just beginning a mission. However it is just the orbiter as it would be at mission's end. This is to signify Discovery's completion of its operational life and the beginning of its new role as a symbol of NASA's and the nation's proud legacy in human spaceflight. The Shuttle Discovery is depicted ascending on a plume of flame as if it is just beginning a mission. However it is just the orbiter without boosters or an external tank as it would be at mission's end. This is to signify Discovery's completion of its operational life and the beginning of its new role as a symbol of NASA's and the nation's proud legacy in human spaceflight. STS-133 ISS assembly flight ULF5 was the 133rd mission in NASA's Space Shuttle program; during the mission Space Shuttle Discovery docked with the International Space Station. It was Discovery's 39th and final mission. The mission launched on February 24 2011 and landed on March 9 2011. The crew consisted of six American astronauts all of whom had been on prior spaceflights headed by Commander Steven Lindsey. The crew joined the long-duration six person crew of Expedition 26 who were already aboard the space station. About a month before lift-off one of the original crew members Tim Kopra was injured in a bicycle accident. He was replaced by Stephen Bowen. The mission transported several items to the space station including the Permanent Multipurpose Module Leonardo which was left permanently docked to one of the station's ports. The shuttle also carried the third of four ExPRESS Logistics Carriers to the ISS as well as a humanoid robot called Robonaut. The mission marked both the 133rd flight of the Space Shuttle program and the 39th and final flight of Discovery with the orbiter completing a cumulative total of a whole year 365 days in space. The mission was affected by a series of delays due to technical problems with the external tank and to a lesser extent the payload. The launch initially scheduled for September 2010 was pushed back to October then to November then finally to February 2011. The mission commander Steven Lindsey handed over his position as Chief of the Astronaut Office position to Peggy Whitson in order to lead the mission. For the first time two mission crew members were in space when a crew assignment announcement was made as Nicole Stott and Michael Barratt were aboard the ISS as part of the Expedition 20 crew. During STS-133 Alvin Drew became the last African-American astronaut to fly on the Space Shuttle as no African-Americans were among the crews of STS-134 and STS-135. Having flown onboard Atlantis' STS-132 mission Bowen became the first and the only NASA astronaut to be launched on two consecutive missions until Doug Hurley launched aboard Crew Dragon Demo-2 in May 2020 after having previously launched on STS-135.

Dawn Launch; Mission to Vesta and Ceres Press Kit/September 2007
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2007. Xerox-style reproduction. Assume only a few copies were made for media representatives. Stapled at upper left corner. Very good. Front cover 2 22 pages. Illustrations. Contents include Media Services Information; Quick Facts; Why Dawn; Mission Overview; Spacecraft; Science Objectives and Program/Project Management. Dawn is a now retired space probe that was launched by NASA in September 2007 with the mission of studying two of the three known protoplanets of the asteroid belt: Vesta and Ceres. In the fulfillment of that mission—the ninth in NASA's Discovery Program—Dawn entered orbit around Vesta on July 16 2011 and completed a 14-month survey mission before leaving for Ceres in late 2012. It entered orbit around Ceres on March 6 2015. In 2017 NASA announced that the planned nine-year mission would be extended until the probe's hydrazine fuel supply was depleted. On November 1 2018 NASA announced that Dawn had depleted its hydrazine and the mission was ended. The derelict probe remains in a stable orbit around Ceres. Dawn is the first spacecraft to have orbited two extraterrestrial bodies the first spacecraft to have visited either Vesta or Ceres and the first to have orbited a dwarf planet. The Dawn mission was managed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory with spacecraft components contributed by European partners from Italy Germany France and the Netherlands. It was the first NASA exploratory mission to use ion propulsion which enabled it to enter and leave the orbit of two celestial bodies. Previous multi-target missions using rockets powered by chemical engine such as the Voyager program were restricted to flybys. The Dawn mission was designed to study two large bodies in the asteroid belt in order to answer questions about the formation of the Solar System as well as to test the performance of its ion thrusters in deep space. Ceres and Vesta were chosen as two contrasting protoplanets the first one apparently "wet" i.e. icy and cold and the other "dry" i.e. rocky whose accretion was terminated by the formation of Jupiter. The two bodies provide a bridge in scientific understanding between the formation of rocky planets and the icy bodies of the Solar System and under what conditions a rocky planet can hold water. The International Astronomical Union IAU adopted a new definition of planet on August 24 2006 which introduced the term "dwarf planet" for ellipsoidal worlds that were too small to qualify for planetary status by "clearing their orbital neighborhood" of other orbiting matter. Dawn is the first mission to study a dwarf planet arriving at Ceres a few months before the arrival of the New Horizons probe at Pluto in July 2015. The spacecraft was placed in an uncontrolled but relatively stable orbit around Ceres where it ran out of hydrazine propellant by October 31 2018 and where it will remain as a "monument" for at least 20 years.

Discovery OV-103; NASA Facts FS-2011-1-016-KSC
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Kennedy Space Center 2011. Presumed First Edition First printing. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. The format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Illustration on the front side. List of the 38 flights the 39th flight that was targeted for 02/24/2011. Space Shuttle Discovery Orbiter Vehicle Designation: OV-103 is a retired American Space Shuttle orbiter. The spaceplane was one of the orbiters from NASA's Space Shuttle program and the third of five fully operational orbiters to be built. Its first mission STS-41-D flew from August 30 to September 5 1984. Over 27 years of service it launched and landed 39 times aggregating more spaceflights than any other spacecraft to date. The Space Shuttle launch vehicle had three main components: the Space Shuttle orbiter a single-use central fuel tank and two reusable solid rocket boosters. Nearly 25000 heat-resistant tiles cover the orbiter to protect it from high temperatures on re-entry. Discovery became the third operational orbiter to enter service preceded by Columbia and Challenger. After the Challenger and Columbia accidents Discovery became the oldest surviving orbiter. It embarked on its final mission STS-133 on February 24 2011 and touched down for the last time at Kennedy Space Center on March 9 having spent a cumulative total of nearly a full year in space. Discovery performed both research and International Space Station ISS assembly missions and also carried the Hubble Space Telescope into orbit among other satellites. Discovery was the first operational shuttle to be retired followed by Endeavour and then Atlantis. The shuttle is on display at the Udvar-Hazy Center of the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. The name Discovery was chosen to carry on a tradition based on ships of exploration primarily HMS Discovery one of the ships commanded by Captain James Cook during his third and final major voyage from 1776 to 1779 and Henry Hudson's Discovery which was used in 1610-1611 to explore Hudson Bay and search for a Northwest Passage. Other ships bearing the name have included HMS Discovery of the 1875-1876 British Arctic Expedition to the North Pole and RRS Discovery which carried the 1901-1904 Discovery Expedition to Antarctica led by Captain Scott. Space Shuttle Discovery launched the Hubble Space Telescope and conducted the second and third Hubble service missions. It also launched the Ulysses probe and three TDRS satellites. Twice Discovery was chosen as the "Return To Flight" Orbiter first in 1988 after the loss of Challenger in 1986 and then again for the twin "Return To Flight" missions in July 2005 and July 2006 after the Columbia disaster in 2003. Project Mercury astronaut John Glenn who was 77 at the time flew with Discovery on STS-95 in 1998 making him the oldest person to go into space at that time in history. Had plans to launch United States Department of Defense payloads from Vandenberg Air Force Base gone ahead Discovery would have become the dedicated US Air Force shuttle. Its first West Coast mission STS-62-A was scheduled for 1986 but canceled in the aftermath of the Challenger disaster. On May 27 1999 Discovery was launched on STS-96 the first shuttle mission to dock with the International Space Station. Discovery was retired after completing its final mission STS-133 on March 9 2011. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Kennedy Space Center unknown

Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment; National Aeronautics and Space Administration Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter
Pasadena CA: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Jet Propulsion Laboratory 2009. Presumed First Edition First printing. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. The format is approximately 85 inches by 11 inches. Color illustrations on both sides. Minor wear and soiling noted. The Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment is one of seven instruments aboard NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter which launched on June 18 2009. It is the first instrument to create detailed day and night surface temperature maps of the Moon. Data from Diviner has helped identify potential ice deposits in the polar regions map compositional variations on the surface and derive subsurface temperatures. Since July of 2009 Diviner has operated continuously acquiring nearly one trillion radiometric measurements to create the most detailed and complete set of thermal measurements of any planet in the solar system. The Diviner team will produce and archive a range of data products. These include low-level products derived from instrument telemetry Level 0; calibrated data with associated geometry Level 1; and higher-level data products that include gridded temperatures Level 2; and derived fields such as thermal inertia rock abundance and mineralogy that will be created with the aid of topographic data and models Level 3. Additionally the Diviner team will provide specialized data products relating to permanently shadowed regions at the lunar poles Level 4. These products will be made available to the public online through this web site and archived through the Geosciences Node of NASA's Planetary Data System. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter LRO is a NASA robotic spacecraft currently orbiting the Moon in an eccentric polar mapping orbit. Data collected by LRO have been described as essential for planning NASA's future human and robotic missions to the Moon. Its detailed mapping program is identifying safe landing sites locating potential resources on the Moon characterizing the radiation environment and demonstrating new technologies. Launched on June 18 2009 in conjunction with the Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite LCROSS as the vanguard of NASA's Lunar Precursor Robotic Program LRO was the first United States mission to the Moon in over ten years. LRO and LCROSS were launched as part of the United States's Vision for Space Exploration program. The probe has made a 3-D map of the Moon's surface at 100-meter resolution and 98.2% coverage excluding polar areas in deep shadow including 0.5-meter resolution images of Apollo landing sites. The first images from LRO were published on July 2 2009 showing a region in the lunar highlands south of Mare Nubium Sea of Clouds. The total cost of the mission is reported as US$583 million of which $504 million pertains to the main LRO probe and $79 million to the LCROSS satellite. LRO has enough fuel to continue operations until at least 2026. On December 17 2010 a topographic map of the Moon based on data gathered by the LOLA instrument was released to the public. This is the most accurate topographic map of the Moon to date. It will continue to be updated as more data is acquired. In July 2024 the analysis of the radar data obtained by LRO confirmed the presence of an underground cave on the moon accessible from the surface. The cave is said to be about 45 meters wide and at least 80 meters long and present in the Mare Tranquillitatis Sea of Tranquility the ancient lava plain where the Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin first set foot on the moon. The mission maintains a full list of publications with science results on its website. National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Jet Propulsion Laboratory unknown

National Astronautics and Space Administration and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Earth's Moon NASA Poster; LG-2005-12-566-HQ -- JPL 400-1253G
Washington DC Pasadena CA: National Astronautics and Space Administration Jet Propulsion Laboratory 2005. Presumed First Edition First printing This is one of multiple originals issued. Poster. Very good. 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 Earth's moon on the left side and a series of smaller photographs/images on the right including Astronauts on the Moon footprint on the moon Craters and a view of Earth from the Moon. The text on the reverse side has general descriptive narrative Fast Facts Significant Dates and information about the images on the front. The Earth and the Moon form the Earth-Moon satellite system with a shared center of mass or barycenter. This barycenter is 1100 miles about a quarter of Earth's radius beneath the Earth's surface. The Moon's orbit is slightly elliptical with an orbital eccentricity of 0.055. The semi-major axis of the geocentric lunar orbit called the lunar distance is approximately 250000 miles or 1.28 light-seconds comparable to going around Earth 9.5 times. The Moon makes a complete orbit around Earth with respect to the fixed stars its sidereal period about once every 27.3 days. Due to tidal locking the Moon has a 1:1 spin-orbit resonance. This rotation-orbit ratio makes the Moon's orbital periods around Earth equal to its corresponding rotation periods. This is the reason for only one side of the Moon its so-called near side being visible from Earth. The plane of the Moon's orbit gradually rotates once every 18.61 years which affects other aspects of lunar motion. These follow-on effects are mathematically described by Cassini's laws. The Moon is Earth's only natural satellite. It orbits at an average distance of 238900 miles about 30 times the diameter of Earth. Tidal forces between Earth and the Moon have over time synchronized the Moon's orbital period lunar month with its rotation period lunar day at 29.5 Earth days causing the same side of the Moon to always face Earth. The Moon's gravitational pull - and to a lesser extent the Sun's - are the main drivers of Earth's tides. In geophysical terms the Moon is a planetary-mass object or satellite planet. Its mass is 1.2% that of the Earth and its diameter is 2159 miles roughly one-quarter of Earth's about as wide as Australia. Within the Solar System it is the largest and most massive satellite in relation to its parent planet the fifth largest and most massive moon overall and larger and more massive than all known dwarf planets. Its surface gravity is about one sixth of Earth's about half of that of Mars and the second highest among all Solar System moons after Jupiter's moon Io. The body of the Moon is differentiated and terrestrial with no significant hydrosphere atmosphere or magnetic field. It formed 4.51 billion years ago not long after Earth's formation out of the debris from a giant impact between Earth and a hypothesized Mars-sized body called Theia. The lunar surface is covered in lunar dust and marked by mountains impact craters their ejecta ray-like streaks and mostly on the near side of the Moon by dark maria "seas" which are plains of cooled magma. These maria were formed when molten lava flowed into ancient impact basins. The Moon is except when passing through Earth's shadow during a lunar eclipse always illuminated by the Sun but from Earth the visible illumination shifts during its orbit producing the lunar phases. The Moon is the brightest celestial object in Earth's night sky. This is mainly due to its large angular diameter while the reflectance of the lunar surface is comparable to that of asphalt. The apparent size is nearly the same as that of the Sun allowing it to cover the Sun completely during a total solar eclipse. From Earth about 59% of the lunar surface is visible over time due to cyclical shifts in perspective libration making parts of the far side of the Moon visible. The Moon has been an important source of inspiration and knowledge for humans having been crucial to cosmography mythology religion art time keeping natural science and spaceflight. In 1959 the first human-made objects to leave Earth and reach another body arrived at the Moon with the flyby of the Soviet Union's Luna 1 and the intentional impact of Luna 2. In 1966 the Moon became the first extraterrestrial body where soft landings and orbital insertions were achieved. On July 20 1969 humans for the first time landed on the Moon and any extraterrestrial body at Mare Tranquillitatis with the lander Eagle of the United States' Apollo 11 mission. Five more crews were sent between then and 1972 each with two men landing on the surface. The longest stay was 75 hours by the Apollo 17 crew. Since then exploration of the Moon has continued robotically and crewed missions are being planned to return beginning in the late 2020s.

Earthwise--Apollo 8; NL-2009-06-016-HQ Image dated 12/29/1968
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2009. Part of Apollo 40 years series. Photograph. Very good. Format approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. Image size is approximately 6 inches by 7.25 inches. The caption reads: This view of the rising Earth greeted the Apollo 8 astronauts as they came from behind the Moon after the lunar orbit insertion burn. The photo is displayed here in its original orientation thought it is more commonly viewed with the lunar surface at the bottom of the photo. In the image is the following quotation from Astronaut William Anders "We came all this way to explore the Moon and the most important thing is that we discovered the Earth." Apollo 8 the second manned spaceflight mission in the United States Apollo space program was launched on December 21 1968 and became the first manned spacecraft to leave Earth orbit reach the Earth's Moon orbit it and return safely to Earth. The three-astronaut crew — Commander Frank Borman Command Module Pilot James Lovell and Lunar Module Pilot William Anders — became the first humans to: travel beyond low Earth orbit; escape Earth's gravity; see Earth as a whole planet; enter the gravity well of another celestial body Earth's moon; orbit another celestial body Earth's moon; directly see the far side of the Moon with their own eyes; witness an Earthrise; escape the gravity of another celestial body Earth's moon; and re-enter the gravitational well of Earth. The crew was named Time magazine's "Men of the Year" for 1968 upon their return. The Apollo program also known as Project Apollo was the third United States human spaceflight program carried out by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA which accomplished landing the first humans on the Moon from 1969 to 1972. First conceived during Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration as a three-man spacecraft to follow the one-man Project Mercury which put the first Americans in space Apollo was later dedicated to President John F. Kennedy's national goal of "landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth" by the end of the 1960s which he proposed in an address to Congress on May 25 1961. Kennedy's goal was accomplished on the Apollo 11 mission when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed their Lunar Module LM on July 20 1969 and walked on the lunar surface while Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit in the Command/Service Module CSM and all three landed safely on Earth on July 24. Five subsequent Apollo missions also landed astronauts on the Moon the last in December 1972. In these six spaceflights twelve men walked on the Moon. Apollo ran from 1961 to 1972 with the first manned flight in 1968. It achieved its goal of manned lunar landing despite the major setback of a 1967 Apollo 1 cabin fire that killed the entire crew during a prelaunch test. After the first landing sufficient flight hardware remained for nine follow-on landings with a plan for extended lunar geological and astrophysical exploration. Budget cuts forced the cancellation of three of these. Five of the remaining six missions achieved successful landings but the Apollo 13 landing was prevented by an oxygen tank explosion in transit to the Moon which damaged the CSM's propulsion and life support. The crew returned to Earth safely by using the Lunar Module as a "lifeboat" for these functions. Apollo used Saturn family rockets as launch vehicles which were also used for an Apollo Applications Program which consisted of Skylab a space station that supported three manned missions in 1973-74 and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project a joint Earth orbit mission with the Soviet Union in 1975. Apollo set several major human spaceflight milestones. It stands alone in sending manned missions beyond low Earth orbit. Apollo 8 was the first manned spacecraft to orbit another celestial body while the final Apollo 17 mission marked the sixth Moon landing and the ninth manned mission beyond low Earth orbit. The program returned 842 pounds 382 kg of lunar rocks and soil to Earth greatly contributing to the understanding of the Moon's composition and geological history. The program laid the foundation for NASA's subsequent human spaceflight capability and funded construction of its Johnson Space Center and Kennedy Space Center. Apollo also spurred advances in many areas of technology incidental to rocketry and manned spaceflight including avionics telecommunications and computers.
