Apollo 8: Man Around the Moon
Washington DC: GPO 1968. Wraps. Good. Format is approximately 8 inches by 10.25 inches. Wraps. Profusely illustrated most in color. Covers creased and somewhat scuffed and some edge wear small creases at spine. Apollo 8 the second manned spaceflight mission in the Apollo space program was launched on December 21 1968 and became the first manned spacecraft to leave low Earth orbit reach the Moon orbit it and return safely to Earth. The 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; see Earth as a whole planet; enter the gravity well of another celestial body; orbit another celestial body; directly see the far side of the Moon with their own eyes; witness an Earthrise; escape the gravity of another celestial body; and re-enter the gravitational well of Earth. The 1968 mission the Saturn V rocket's first crewed launch was also the first human spaceflight launch from the Kennedy Space Center. The Saturn V rocket used by Apollo 8 was designated SA-503 or the "03rd" model of the Saturn V "5" Rocket to be used in the Saturn-Apollo "SA" program. When it was erected in the Vertical Assembly Building on December 20 1967 it was thought that the rocket would be used for an unmanned Earth-orbit test flight carrying a boilerplate Command/Service Module. Apollo 6 had suffered several major problems during its April 1968 flight including severe pogo oscillation during its first stage two second stage engine failures and a third stage that failed to reignite in orbit. Without assurances that these problems had been rectified NASA administrators could not justify risking a manned mission until additional unmanned test flights proved that the Saturn V was ready.

Columbia Accident Investigation Board, and National Aeronautics and Space Administration

Washington DC: GPO 2003. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Fair. 248 wraps v.1 only of the 6-vol. set. Covers show damp rippling sticker residue and is somewhat worn and soiled The Columbia Accident Investigation Board was convened by NASA to investigate the destruction of the Space Shuttle Columbia during STS-107 upon atmospheric re-entry on February 1 2003. The panel determined that the accident was caused by foam insulation breaking off from the external fuel tank forming debris which damaged the orbiter's wing; and that the problem of "debris shedding" was well known but considered "acceptable" by management. The panel also recommended changes that should be made to increase the safety of future shuttle flights. The CAIB released its final report on August 26 2003. Investigates loss of the Space Shuttle Columbia STS-107 and its seven-member crew on February 1 2003. Four parts entitled: The Accident; Why the Accident Occurred; A Look Ahead; and Appendices A B C. Concludes with recommendations. Appendices D E F G and H comprise the remaining 5 volumes not present and provide information on technical documentation and transcripts of Accident Board public hearings. This volume comprises the major assessment conclusions and recommendations. After nearly seven months of investigation the Board has been able to arrive at findings and recommendations aimed at significantly reducing the chances of further accidents. Our aim has been to improve Shuttle safety by multiple means not just by correcting the specific faults that cost the nation this Orbiter and this crew. GPO paperback
