Space; The New Frontier
Washington DC: U. S. Government Printing Office 1959. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. The format is approximately 10.5 inches by 8.5 inches. 32 pages plus covers. Wraps. Illustrations photographs and drawings. Diagrams. Tabular Data. Some wear and soiling to covers. On July 29 1958 President Eisenhower signed an act of Congress creating the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The act declared "that is is the policy of the United States that activities in space should be devoted to peaceful purposes for the benefit of mankind." On October 1 1958 this new agency was established. This 1959 initial publication there were later editions/versions is thus one of the earliest official NASA publications. This work briefly presents a historical perspective then discusses Sounding Rockets Satellites and Space Probes Manned Space Flight Human Factors and Future Explorations. NASA traces its roots to the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics NACA. Despite being the birthplace of aviation by 1914 the United States recognized that it was far behind Europe in aviation capability. Determined to regain American leadership in aviation the United States Congress created the Aviation Section of the U.S. Army Signal Corps in 1914 and established NACA in 1915 to foster aeronautical research and development. Over the next forty years NACA would conduct aeronautical research in support of the U.S. Air Force U.S. Army U.S. Navy and the civil aviation sector. After the end of World War II NACA became interested in the possibilities of guided missiles and supersonic aircraft developing and testing the Bell X-1 in a joint program with the U.S. Air Force. NACA's interest in space grew out of its rocketry program at the Pilotless Aircraft Research Division. The Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik 1 ushered in the Space Age and kicked off the Space Race. Despite NACA's early rocketry program the responsibility for launching the first American satellite fell to the Naval Research Laboratory's Project Vanguard whose operational issues ensured the Army Ballistic Missile Agency would launch Explorer 1 America's first satellite on February 1 1958. The Eisenhower Administration decided to split the United States' military and civil spaceflight programs which were organized together under the Defense Department's Advanced Research Projects Agency. As the United States' premier aeronautics agency NACA formed the core of NASA's new structure by reassigning it its 8000 employees and three major research laboratories. NASA also proceeded to absorb the Naval Research Laboratory's Project Vanguard the Army's Jet Propulsion Laboratory JPL and the Army Ballistic Missile Agency under Wernher von Braun. This left NASA firmly as the United States' civil space lead and the Air Force as the military space lead. U. S. Government Printing Office paperback

Illustrations. Reference was found on page 21 to selection of candidates having begun in early 1959. Other references to early 1959 and 1958 noted. This work starts out with a brief history of the scientific inquiry into space and space travel. It the discusses sounding rockets Satellites Spacecraft Space Probes Jupiter C Vanguard I Juno II Tracking Station Manned Space Flight Human Factors Project Mercury and space exploration. This is an early NASA general audience publication. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA is an independent agency of the U.S. Federal Government responsible for the civilian space program as well as aeronautics and space research. NASA was established in 1958 succeeding the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics NACA. The new agency was to have a distinctly civilian orientation encouraging peaceful applications in space science. Since its establishment 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. NASA is supporting the International Space Station and is overseeing the development of the Orion spacecraft the Space Launch System and Commercial Crew vehicles. The agency is also responsible for the Launch Services Program which provides oversight of launch operations and countdown management for uncrewed NASA launches.

Spacelab Life Sciences 1; First Space Laboratory Dedicated to Life Sciences Research NP 120
Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center Houston TX: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 1989. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. vii 1 44 pages plus covers. Illustrations most in color. Cover has some wear and soiling with edge tear at back. Format is approximately 8.5 inches by 11 inches. The Spacelab Life Sciences 1 SLS-1 mission originated with a call to the scientific community for experiments in 1978. Accepted experiments involved humans primates rodents amphibians and plants. The original payload configuration was reduced to include human passive rodent and basic biology experiments and engineering evaluations. Human experiments will address effects of micro-gravity on various physiological parameters during and postflight. Investigations with nonhuman subjects will study microgravity effects on the cardiopulmonary cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems on the regulation of blood volume and erythropoiesis and on calcium metabolism and gravity receptors. SLS-1 was to serve as a stepping stone in establishing capabilities for flying nonhuman subjects and performing in-flight manipulations on these subjects without jeopardizing the crew environment. Fundamental technology incorporated in the animal holding facilities and laboratory work bench will be used in subsequent missions and in the future Space Station. Space Life Science-1 SLS-1 launched aboard Space Shuttle Orbiter Columbia STS-40 on June 5 1991 was the first Spacelab mission dedicated solely to life sciences research. The laboratory for the research took place in a module shown here carried in the cargo bay of the Columbia. The purpose of the mission was to study the mechanisms magnitudes and time courses of certain physiological changes that occur during space flight to investigate the consequences of the body's adaptation to microgravity and readjustment to Earth's gravity and to bring the benefits back home to Earth. The mission was designed to explore the responses of the heart lungs blood vessels kidneys and hormone-secreting glands to examine the causes of space motion sickness and study changes in the muscles bones and cells. Many studies started during SLS-1 provided data that served as the foundation for investigations on the International Space Station. National Aeronautics and Space Administration paperback

Spinoff 2005; Innovative Partnerships Program
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA Center for AeroSpace Information CASI Publications and Graphics Department 2005. Presumed First Edition First printing of this annual report. Trade paperback. Very good. Lynette Cook Front cover art. The format is approximately 11 inches by 8.5 inches. 167 1 pages. Illustrations most with color. Annual report on technology transfer or "technology twice used" inventions from NASA. Since 1976 Spinoff has profiled technologies that benefit from NASA investment and expertise. These developments have transformed into commercial products and services that are used throughout daily life from your cell phone camera to the memory foam in your mattress. When Congress created NASA it mandated the agency disseminate its innovations as widely possible. To that end the Technology Transfer Program was created in 1964 and it has functioned ever since making it NASA’s longest continuously operated mission. Early publications about NASA inventions made available to the scientific and engineering communities resulted in feedback indicating a broad interest in the private sector in adapting NASA technology for commercial uses. As products began to emerge NASA began preparing annual reports on these successes to present at congressional budget hearings. Spinoff has been published in a four-color editionand it has been released every year since 1976. All together since its first edition NASA has shared the stories of more 2000 products and services that began as or have benefited from NASA technology. In addition to the general public NASA sends copies of Spinoff to politicians representatives at the United Nations economic decision makers company CEOs academics scientists engineers professionals in technology transfer the news media and many others. The early black-and-white Technology Utilization Program Reports published in 1973 and ‘74 generated so much public interest that NASA decided to turn them into an attractive publication for a general audience. NASA SPINOFF now features dozens of success stories annually online and in its print publication demonstrating the wider benefits of America’s investment in its space program. The 2005 edition highlights Partnership Benefits in Health and Medicine Transportation Public Safety Consumer/Home/Recreations Environment and Resources Management; Computer Technology and Industrial Productivity/Manufacturing Technology.

Very good. ii 114 pages plus front cover. Illustrations. Three-hole punched. Front cover also includes the logo of the United Space Alliance. Contents include STS-126 Mission Overview; Timeline Overview; Mission Profile; Mission Priorities; Mission Personnel; STS-126 Endeavour Crew; Payload Overview; Rendezvous and Docking; Environmental Contol and Life Support System ECLSS; Solar Alpha Rotary Join SARJ; Spacewalks; Experiments; Advanced Resistive Exercise Device; Shuttle Reference Data; Launch and Landing; Acronyms and Abbreviations; Media Assistance; Public Affairs Contacts. STS-126 was the one hundred and twenty-fourth NASA Space Shuttle mission and twenty-second orbital flight of the Space Shuttle Endeavour OV-105 to the International Space Station ISS. The purpose of the mission referred to as ULF2 by the ISS program was to deliver equipment and supplies to the station to service the Solar Alpha Rotary Joints SARJ and repair the problem in the starboard SARJ that had limited its use since STS-120. STS-126 launched on 15 November 2008 at 00:55:39 UTC from Launch Pad 39A LC-39A at NASA's Kennedy Space Center KSC with no delays or issues. Endeavour successfully docked with the station on 16 November 2008. After spending 15 days 20 hours 30 minutes and 30 seconds docked to the station during which the crew performed four spacewalks and transferred cargo the orbiter undocked on 28 November 2008. Due to poor weather at Kennedy Space Center Endeavour landed at Edwards Air Force Base on 30 November 2008 at 21:25:09 UTC. STS-126 included the Leonardo Multi-Purpose Logistics Module MPLM on its fifth spaceflight. Leonardo held over 14100 lbs of supplies and equipment. Among the items packed into the MPLM were two new crew quarters racks a second galley kitchen for the Destiny laboratory a second Waste and Hygiene Compartment WHC rack lavatory the advanced Resistive Exercise Device aRED two water reclamation racks spare hardware and new experiments. Also included in Leonardo was the General Laboratory Active Cryogenic ISS Experiment Refrigerator or GLACIER a double locker cryogenic freezer for transporting and preserving science experiments. The shuttle also carried irradiated turkey candied yams stuffing and dessert for a special Thanksgiving meal at the station as well as an Official Flight Kit with mementos for those who supported the astronauts and helped them complete their mission successfully. Also carried was a Lightweight MPESS Carrier LMC carrying a Flex Hose Rotary Coupler FHRC and returning a Nitrogen Assembly Tank from Quest for refurbishment. STS-126 was the only mission to land on the temporary runway 04 at Edwards Air Force Base as the main runway was completing refurbishment. The use of the temporary runway required new braking and rollout techniques that have never been used before as the runway is 2990 ft shorter than the normal runway. This was the last landing at Edwards for Endeavour. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

STS-135 Launch Salute Illustrated Card
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 2011. Presumed first edition first printing thus. Single sheet printed on one side. Very good. The format is approximately 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches. Illustration and text on one side. The other side is blank. RARE surviving commemorative item of the last Space Shuttle launch!!! The STS-135 Launch Salute was in honor of the hundreds of thousands of men and women who have devoted their time careers and passion over the previous 40 years to the success of the Space Shuttle Program and in remembrance of the Challenger and Columbia crews who paid the ultimate price we ask you to join and raise hands as you watch Atlantis ascend into the heavens during the final space shuttle launch. At ten seconds to liftoff stand up. at liftoff join and raise hands For first ten second of flight keep hands raised. With this gesture we convey the thanks of a grateful nation and world for the legacy of space exploration that has been set for the future. NASA continues preparations for the mission that everyone hopes will never be needed: the STS-335 flight to rescue the STS-134 crew in the event that Endeavour becomes disabled during the program’s planned final flight. 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. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

On July 21 2011 NASA hosted an employee appreciation event outside OPF-2 with Atlantis parked. Cheryl Hurst the director of education and external relations at KSC spoke first and invited Susan Lambert to lead the crowd with the American national anthem. A pledge of allegiance followed from KSC children and NASA Administrator Charles Bolden and KSC Director Robert Cabana spoke to the shuttle program employees. During the event Rita Wilcoxson and Patricia Stratton were presented with highest NASA honors: the Distinguished Service Medal and the Distinguished Public Service Medal respectively. The citations on both were identical stating "for continuous outstanding leadership contributions provided to the nation's space shuttle program". A public "welcome home" ceremony was held for the crew at Houston's Ellington Field Hangar 990 on July 22. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

STS-43 Crew Patch Sticker
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration 1991. Presumed First Edition First printing before correction to replace Discovery with Atlantis. Single sticker sheet printed on both sides. Good. RARE with Discovery attribution. Approximately 5 inches at its highest and 4 inches at its widest. Some soiling noted. STS-43 the ninth mission for Space Shuttle Atlantis was a 9 day mission whose primary goal was launching the TDRS-E satellite TDRS-5. The flight also tested an advanced heatpipe radiator for potential use on the then-future space station and conducted a variety of medical and materials science investigations. Apparently Space Shuttle Discovery was originally intended to fly this mission. From the text on the sticker's peelable back the STS-43 insignia portrays the evolution and continuity of the U.S. space program by highlighting 30 years of American manned spaceflight experience from Mercury to the Space Shuttle. The emergence of the shuttle Discovery from the outlined configuration of the Mercury space capsule commemorates this special relationship. The energy and momentum of launch are conveyed by the gradations of blue which mark the shuttle's ascent from Earth to space. Once in Earth orbit Discovery's cargo bay opens to reveal the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite which appears in gold emphasis against the white wings of Discovery and the stark blackness of space. As primary mission objective the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System will enable almost continuous communication from Earth to space for future space shuttle missions. The stars on the insignia are arranged to suggest this mission's STS number: four stars left of Shuttle and three starts to the right. NOTE: Later versions of the sticker properly reference the Shuttle Atlantis! The five astronauts are named on the front: Blaha Baker Lucid Adamson and Low. John Elmer Blaha born August 26 1942 in San Antonio Texas is a retired United States Air Force colonel and a former NASA astronaut. He is a veteran of five space missions aboard the Space Shuttle and Mir. Michael Allen Baker born October 27 1953 is a retired captain in the United States Navy former NASA astronaut and the International Space Station Program Manager for International and Crew Operations at NASA's Johnson Space Center. Shannon Matilda Wells Lucid born January 14 1943 is an American biochemist and retired NASA astronaut. At one time she held the record for the longest duration stay in space by an American as well as by a woman. She has flown in space five times including a prolonged mission aboard the Mir space station in 1996; she is the only American woman to have served aboard Mir. George David Low February 19 1956 - March 15 2008 was an American aerospace executive and a NASA astronaut. In addition to holding some technical assignments he logged more than 700 hours in space including stints on the Columbia the Atlantis and the Endeavour Space Shuttles before he left NASA in 1996. James Craig Adamson born March 3 1946 is a former NASA astronaut and retired Colonel of the United States Army. James Adamson flew on two missions STS-28 and STS-43 and completed 263 orbits and 334 hours in space. In terms of mission highlights the primary payload TDRS-E attached to an Inertial Upper Stage IUS was deployed about six hours into flight and the IUS propelled the satellite into geosynchronous orbit. TDRS-5 became the fourth member of the orbiting TDRS cluster. Secondary payloads were Space Station Heat Pipe Advanced Radiator Element SHARE II; Shuttle Solar Backscatter Ultra-Violet SSBUV instrument; Tank Pressure Control Equipment TPCE and Optical Communications Through Windows OCTW. Other experiments included Auroral Photography Experiment APE-B Protein Crystal Growth Ill PCG Ill; Bioserve / Instrumentation Technology Associates Materials Dispersion Apparatus BIMDA; Investigations into Polymer Membrane Processing IPMP; Space Acceleration Measurement System SAMS; Solid Surface Combustion Experiment SSCE; Ultraviolet Plume imager UVPI; and the Air Force Maui Optical Site AMOS experiment. TDRS-E which became TDRS-5 on orbit was successfully boosted to geosynchronous orbit at more than 22000 miles 35400 km 22000 mi above Earth by two firings of the Inertial Upper Stage IUS booster the last of which occurred approximately 12½ hours into the mission. TDRS then deployed its antennas and solar panels and separation from the IUS took place less than 45 minutes later. National Aeronautics and Space Administration unknown

The Ares Projects Logo Sticker
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration c2007. Presumed First Edition First printing this. Single sticker sheet printed on both sides peal line is about one third up from the trangle's base. Very good. Michael Okuda. The format is an equilateral triangle with each side measuring approximately 5 inches. Rare surviving copy. One side is the ARES logo designed by Star Trek artist Michael Okuda. The other side has the following text: The Ares Projects The United States is leading the next phase of human Space exploration. The journey begins with two new launch vehicles--the Ares I crew launch vehicle and the Area V cargo launch vehicle--being developed by the Ares Projects managed out of NASA'a Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville Alabama. These launch vehicles were for missions to the International Space Station the Moon and beyond. The rockets are part of NASA's Constellation fleet which includes the Orion crew exploration vehicles a lunar lander habitats rovers and scientific equipment. Space exploration propelled by the area rockets promotes leading-edge science leads to innovative technologies and products expands economic opportunities and inspires the next generation of scientists and explorers. Star Trek artist Michael Okuda designed the Ares logo which will adorn both Ares I and Ares V. The Logo's 10 stars represent 10 NASA centers that ware working on the new vehicles. A bright star representing the Ares rocket ascends above Earth's outline depicted in the background. Michael Okuda is an American graphic designer known for his work on Star Trek including designing computer user interfaces known as "okudagrams". His work for NASA's Project Constellation subsequently canceled included logos for the Ares booster the Altair lunar lander and the Orion spacecraft. 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.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration, The Viking Lander Imaging Team
The Martian Landscape; NASA SP-425
Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration Scientific and Technical Information Office 1978. Presumed First Edition First printing. Hardcover. good. 11" x 14" vii 1 160 pages profusely illus. some in color tables Cover has some fading. Some pages has slight corner creasing. No dust jacket present. 3D viewer in pocket at rear boards have some edge wear. Oversized item requires more shipping charges if sent overseas. The Viking program consisted of a pair of American space probes sent to Mars Viking 1 and Viking 2. Each spacecraft was composed of two main parts: an orbiter designed to photograph the surface and a lander designed to study the planet from the surface. The orbiters also served as communication relays for the landers. The Viking program grew from NASA's earlier Voyager Mars program. Viking 1 entered Mars orbit on June 19 1976 with Viking 2 following suit on August 7. After orbiting Mars for more than a month and returning images used for landing site selection the orbiters and landers detached; the landers then soft-landed. The Viking 1 lander touched down on the surface of Mars on July 20 1976 and was joined by the Viking 2 lander on September 3. The orbiters continued imaging and performing other scientific operations from orbit while the landers deployed instruments on the surface. Pictures from the Viking 1 and Viking 2 Landers as well as an account of the decade leading up to the Mars pictures by Tim Mutch leader of the Viking Lander Imaging Team. The Viking landers were the first completely successful spacecrafts to land on Mars. Before Viking arrived at Mars landing sites were chosen for both Viking landers. On July 20 1976 Viking lander 1 arrived at its chosen site in the western part of Chryse Planitia. On August 7 1976 Viking lander 2 touched down on Utopia Planitia. Each of the Viking landers carried a series of science packages which included a weather station a seismometer a chemical analysis package two cameras a soil composition package and a biological experiment package. Within minutes of lander 1's touch down the first picture was taken in case something happened to the spacecraft. This picture showed what looked like a sandy dusty surface with rocks up to 10 cm in diameter. The two cameras on each lander were mounted on opposite sides of the space craft. This allowed stereoscopic images to be taken which could be used to calculate distances from the lander to the features in the pictures.

The Space Telescope; NASA SP-392
Washington DC: GPO 1976. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. Wraps. good. xi 1 231 1 pages. Wraps. Frontis illustration. Illustrations. Acronyms. Author index. Pencil erasure on half-title. This volume contains the author's summaries of their papers on the space telescope presented at the 21st annual meeting of the American Astronautical Society at Denver Colorado August 26-28 1975. Space-based astronomy had begun on a very small scale following World War II as scientists made use of developments that had taken place in rocket technology. The first ultraviolet spectrum of the Sun was obtained in 194612 and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA launched the Orbiting Solar Observatory OSO to obtain UV X-ray and gamma-ray spectra in 1962. An orbiting solar telescope was launched in 1962 by the United Kingdom as part of the Ariel space program and in 1966 NASA launched the first Orbiting Astronomical Observatory OAO mission. OAO-1's battery failed after three days terminating the mission. It was followed by OAO-2 which carried out ultraviolet observations of stars and galaxies from its launch in 1968 until 1972 well beyond its original planned lifetime of one year. The OSO and OAO missions demonstrated the important role space-based observations could play in astronomy and in 1968 NASA developed firm plans for a space-based reflecting telescope with a mirror 3 m in diameter known provisionally as the Large Orbiting Telescope or Large Space Telescope LST with a launch slated for 1979. These plans emphasized the need for manned maintenance missions to the telescope to ensure such a costly program had a lengthy working life and the concurrent development of plans for the reusable space shuttle indicated that the technology to allow this was soon to become available.
