Aeronautics and Space Report of the President; Fiscal Year 1992 Activities
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 1993. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. 2 ii 111 1 pages. Map. 13 Appendices. Index. Includes Executive Summary; Space Launch Activities; Space Science; Space Flight and Space Technology; Space Communications; Aeronautical Activities; Studies of the Planet Earth; Other Aeronautical and Space Activities; and Glossary. The annual "President's Report" is a good summary of the Government's aerospace activities each year. Mandated by law it contains information on aerospace activities conducted by 14 Federal departments and agencies as well as appendices containing useful historical data on spacecraft launches and budget figures. The National Aeronautics and Space Act of 1958 directed that the annual Aeronautics and Space Report include a "comprehensive description of the programmed activities and the accomplishments of all agencies of the United States in the field of aeronautics and space activities during the preceding calendar year." This year's report has been prepared on a fiscal year basis which is consistent with the budgetary period now used in programs of the Federal Government. This report presents a fascinating snapshot of the U.S. space activities toward the end of the 20th Century. Fiscal Year FY 1992 was a significant one for U.S. aeronautics and space efforts. It included seven Space Shuttle missions and 14 Government launches of Expendable Launch Vehicles ELVs carrying a variety of payloads ranging from NASA missions to classified payloads. In addition there were eight launches of ELVs by commercial launch service providers operating under licenses issued by the Department of Transportation's Office of Commercial Space Transportation. On December 71991 the Air Force achieved initial launch capability for the new Atlas I1 launch vehicle in a commercial launch by General Dynamics with support from the Air Force. The other ELV missions launched four Navstar Global Positioning System two Defense Satellite Communications System and one Defense Meteorological Satellite Program satellites as well as two classified payloads and four NASA spacecraft. The Shuttle missions included one using the Atmospheric Laboratory for Applications and Science ATLAS-1 to study the Sun and our atmosphere as well as the first flight of the newest orbiter Endeavour which rendezvoused with retrieved and replaced the perigee kick motor of the INTELSATVI F-3 satellite that the International Telecommunications Satellite Organization INTELSAT controllers then deployed into its intended orbit. In aeronautics efforts have ranged from development of new civil and military aircraft and technologies to research and development of ways to reduce aircraft noise and improve flight safety and security. A key environmental effort in FY 1992 was monitoring ozone depletion. One of the major Earth science highlights of the year was finding that like the ozone layer over the Antarctic regions with its well documented annual depletion the ozone layer in the Northern Hemisphere is increasingly vulnerable to depletion by synthetic chemicals. Several Federal agencies have cooperated to study this and other environmental problems so we can improve the prospects for future generations who will inhabit the Earth. The budgets for aeronautics and space-distributed among 14 different Federal agencies have promoted important advances in the Nation's scientific and technical knowledge promising to enhance the quality of life on Earth through improved scientific understanding provide a more viable economy and healthier environment and ensure we live in a safer world.

American ASTP Launch / ASTP From Google Translate NASA photograph; JSCL-141
Washington DC: U.S. Government Printing Office 1975. Presumed First Edition First printing. One of multiple originals issued. Single sheet printed on both sides. Very good. The format is approximately 8 inches by 10 inches. This is a single sheet with a photograph on the front and printing on both sides in a plastic sleeve. On the front side is a large color photograph of American ASTP Launch ASTP. The other side is largely in two column format with text in English on the left and Russian text on the right. This is titled First International Manned Space Mission/ From Google Translate. The color photograph shows the Apollo liftoff on July 15 1975 for its historic rendezvous with two Soviet cosmonauts aboard their Soyuz spacecraft. ASTP was particularly significant for the USSR's policy of keeping the details of their space program secret from the Soviet people and the world at large especially Americans. The ASTP was the first Soviet space mission to be televised in a live fashion during the launch while in space and during the landing. Soyuz 19 was also the first Soviet spacecraft to which a foreign flight crew had access before flight; the Apollo crew were permitted to inspect it and the launch and crew training site which was an unprecedented sharing of information with Americans about any Soviet space program. Apollo-Soyuz was the first crewed international space mission carried out jointly by the United States and the Soviet Union in July 1975. Millions of people around the world watched on television as an American Apollo spacecraft docked with a Soviet Soyuz capsule. The project and its handshake in space was a symbol of détente between the two superpowers during the Cold War. The mission was officially known as the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project ASTP or. 'Experimental flight Soyuz-Apollo' and commonly referred to in the Soviet Union as Soyuz-Apollo; the Soviets officially designated the mission as Soyuz 19. The unnumbered American vehicle was left over from the canceled Apollo missions and was the last Apollo module to fly. The three American astronauts Thomas P. Stafford Vance D. Brand and Deke Slayton and two Soviet cosmonauts Alexei Leonov and Valery Kubasov performed both joint and separate scientific experiments including an arranged eclipse of the Sun by the Apollo module to allow instruments on the Soyuz to take photographs of the solar corona. The pre-flight work provided useful engineering experience for later joint American-Russian space flights such as the Shuttle-Mir program and the International Space Station. Apollo-Soyuz was the last crewed United States spaceflight for nearly six years until the first launch of the Space Shuttle on 12 April 1981 and the last crewed United States spaceflight in a space capsule until Crew Dragon Demo-2 on 30 May 2020.

Staple bound in top corner Tears around staple in front cover which is separated but present. Discoloration to covers. Apollo 11 was the spaceflight that landed the first two people on the Moon. Mission commander Neil Armstrong and pilot Buzz Aldrin both American landed the lunar module Eagle on July 20 1969 at 20:17 UTC. Armstrong became the first person to step onto the lunar surface six hours after landing on July 21 at 02:56:15 UTC; Aldrin joined him about 20 minutes later. They spent about two and a quarter hours together outside the spacecraft and collected 47.5 pounds 21.5 kg of lunar material to bring back to Earth. Michael Collins piloted the command module Columbia alone in lunar orbit while they were on the Moon's surface. Armstrong and Aldrin spent 21.5 hours on the lunar surface before rejoining Columbia in lunar orbit. For Release Sunday July 6 1969. Press release No. 69-83K. A press kit often referred to as a media kit in business environments is a pre-packaged set of promotional materials that provide information about a person company organization or cause and which is distributed to members of the media for promotional use. Press kits or media kits as they are sometimes known are often distributed to announce a release or for a news conference. Traditionally the term "press kit" referred to a set of documents photographs and other relevant materials packaged together and designed to be sent to a newspaper or magazine as part of an organizations Public relations or promotional program. Recently as print media circulation and readership levels have been declining marketing and PR people have begun using the broader term "media kit" so that it now refers to any promotional material distributed to any media outlet.

Apollo 14 Mission Events; January 31 1971 Launch
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Apollo Program Office 1971. Presumed First Edition First printing. Single sheet printed on both sides. Good. Format is approximately 6.5 inches by 5.5 inches folded in half and printed on both sides. Item has some wear and soiling. Front side has a detailed listing of events such as liftoff Translunar Injection Midcourse Correction Lunar Orbit Insertion etc. The other side continues with a listing of events but has two graphics detailing the events of Apollo 14 EVA-1 and Apollo 14 EVA-2. The Apollo program also known as Project Apollo was the third U. S. human spaceflight program carried out by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA which succeeded in landing the first humans on the Moon from 1969 to 1972. It was first conceived during Dwight D. Eisenhower's administration as a three-person spacecraft to follow the one-person Project Mercury which put the first Americans in space. Apollo was later dedicated to President Kennedy's national goal for the 1960s of "landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth" in an address to Congress on May 25 1961. It was the third US human spaceflight program to fly preceded by the two-person Project Gemini conceived in 1961 to extend spaceflight capability in support of Apollo. Kennedy's goal was accomplished on the Apollo 11 mission when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin landed their Apollo Lunar Module LM on July 20 1969 and walked on the lunar surface and landed safely on Earth on July 24. Five subsequent Apollo missions also landed astronauts on the Moon the last Apollo 17 in December 1972. In these six spaceflights twelve people walked on the Moon. Rare surviving Apollo 14 ephemera. Apollo 14 was the eighth crewed mission in the United States Apollo program the third to land on the Moon and the first to land in the lunar highlands. It was the last of the "H missions" targeted landings with two-day stays on the Moon with two lunar EVAs or moonwalks.<br /> The mission was originally scheduled for 1970 but was postponed because of the investigation following the abort of Apollo 13 and the need for modifications to the spacecraft as a result. Commander Alan Shepard Command Module Pilot Stuart Roosa and Lunar Module Pilot Edgar Mitchell launched on their nine-day mission on Sunday January 31 1971 at 4:03:02 p.m. EST. Liftoff was delayed forty minutes and two seconds due to launch site weather restrictions the first such delay for an Apollo mission. En route to the lunar landing the crew overcame a series of malfunctions that might have resulted in a second consecutive aborted mission and possibly the premature end of the Apollo program. Shepard and Mitchell made their lunar landing on February 5 in the Fra Mauro highlands - originally the target of Apollo 13. During the two walks on the surface 94.35 pounds 42.80 kg of Moon rocks were collected and several scientific experiments were deployed. To the dismay of some geologists Shepard and Mitchell did not reach the rim of Cone crater as had been planned though they came close. In Apollo 14's most famous incident Shepard hit two golf balls he had brought with him with a makeshift club. While Shepard and Mitchell were on the surface Roosa remained in lunar orbit aboard the Command and Service Module performing scientific experiments and photographing the Moon including the landing site of the future Apollo 16 mission. He took several hundred seeds on the mission many of which were germinated on return resulting in the so-called Moon trees that were widely distributed in the following years. After liftoff from the surface and a successful docking the spacecraft was flown back to Earth where the three astronauts splashed down safely in the Pacific Ocean on February 9.

Ares I -X Development Flight Test Logo Sticker
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration c2008. Presumed First Edition First printing this. Single sticker sheet printed on both sides peal line is about at the diameter line. Very good. The format is a circle with a 4 inch diameter. Sticker seam at the back is at the mid-point. Rare surviving copy. One side is a version of the ARES logo originally designed by Star Trek artist Michael Okuda with 10 stars and a rocket ascending but no image of Earth in the background. The other side has the following text: NASA's Ares I-X Flight Test Vehicle NASA's first flight test of the full rocket for the agency's next-generation spacecraft and launch vehicle systems is launching in 2009. The flight test called Ares I-X will bring NASA one step closer to its exploration goals--to return to the moon for more ambitious exploration of the lunar surface ad to travel to Mars and destinations beyond." Then two links to on-line resources. Ares I-X was the first-stage prototype and design concept demonstrator of Ares I a launch system for human spaceflight developed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA. Ares I-X was successfully launched on October 28 2009. The Ares I-X vehicle used in the test flight was similar in shape mass and size to the planned configuration of later Ares I vehicles but had largely dissimilar internal hardware consisting of only one powered stage. By flying the vehicle through first-stage separation the test flight also verified the performance and dynamics of the Ares I solid rocket booster in a "single stick" arrangement which is different from the solid rocket booster's then-current “double-booster†configuration alongside the external tank on the space shuttle. Ares I was the crew launch vehicle that was being developed by NASA as part of the Constellation program. The name "Ares" refers to the Greek deity Ares who is identified with the Roman god Mars. Ares I was originally known as the "Crew Launch Vehicle" CLV. NASA planned to use Ares I to launch Orion the spacecraft intended for NASA human spaceflight missions after the Space Shuttle was retired in 2011. Ares I was to complement the larger uncrewed Ares V which was the cargo launch vehicle for Constellation. NASA selected the Ares designs for their anticipated overall safety reliability and cost-effectiveness. However the Constellation program including Ares I was canceled by U.S. president Barack Obama in October 2010 with the passage of his 2010 NASA authorization bill. In September 2011 NASA detailed the Space Launch System as its new vehicle for human exploration beyond Earth's orbit. Unlike the Space Shuttle where both crew and cargo were launched simultaneously on the same rocket the plans for Project Constellation outlined having two separate launch vehicles the Ares I and the Ares V for crew and cargo respectively. Having two separate launch vehicles allows for more specialized designs for the crew and heavy cargo launch rockets. The Ares I rocket was specifically being designed to launch the Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle. Orion was intended as a crew capsule similar in design to the Apollo program capsule to transport astronauts to the International Space Station the Moon and eventually Mars. Ares I might have also delivered some limited resources to orbit including supplies for the International Space Station or subsequent delivery to the planned lunar base. NASA selected Alliant Techsystems the builder of the Space Shuttle Solid Rocket Boosters as the prime contractor for the Ares I first stage. NASA announced that Rocketdyne would be the main subcontractor for the J-2X rocket engine on July 16 2007. NASA selected Boeing to provide and install the avionics for the Ares I rocket on December 12 2007. On August 28 2007 NASA awarded the Ares I Upper Stage manufacturing contract to Boeing. The upper stage of Ares I was to have been built at Michoud Aerospace Factory which was used for the Space Shuttle's External Tank and the Saturn V's S-IC first stage. The Ares V formerly known as the Cargo Launch Vehicle or CaLV was the planned cargo launch component of the canceled NASA Constellation program which was to have replaced the Space Shuttle after its retirement in 2011. Ares V was also planned to carry supplies for a human presence on Mars. The Ares V was to launch the Earth Departure Stage and Altair lunar lander for NASA's return to the Moon which was planned for 2019. It would also have served as the principal launcher for missions beyond the Earth-Moon system including the program's ultimate goal a crewed mission to Mars. The uncrewed Ares V would complement the smaller and human-rated Ares I rocket for the launching of the 4–6 person Orion spacecraft. Both rockets deemed safer than the then-current Space Shuttle would have employed technologies developed for the Apollo program the Shuttle program and the Delta IV EELV program.

Johnson Space Center Texas: U. S. Government Printing Office 1974. Presumed to have been uniquely signed in person. Photograph. 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: 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

National Aeronautics and Space Administration, [Johnson Space Center--presumed]
Astronaut Vance D. Brand Inscribed color photograph
Johnson Space Center Texas Presumed: U. S. Government Printing Office 1971. Presumed to have been uniquely signed in person. Photograph. 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: ASTRONAUT VANCE D. BRAND. The color image is of the full face of Astronaut Brand in has astronaut space suit showing him from the waist up. Near his ungloved hands is a globe of the earth. 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.
