This design is by Blake Dumesnil. MR. Dumesnil is a senior art director and graphic designer at NASA's Johnson Space Center JSC. Much of the work he does supports the JSC Engineering and Science Directorate as well as the Jacobs-JETS contract. His design work includes all forms of visual presentation and marketing materials used to convey what expertise resources technologies and innovations at JSC in hopes of bringing in new forms of work from a variety of industries. As part of NASA's strive to partner with other industries he has helped represent NASA's involvement in Pumps & Pipes a collaborative effort between the Energy Medical and Aerospace industries in Houston that aims to solve common challenges through new technology and innovation development. In addition to marketing materials he has also had the honor of working with some of the astronaut crews in designing their ISS mission patches and have been personally selected to design some of the agency's anniversary designs as well.

1959Best.-Nr. 80605Washington DC: National Aeronautics and Space Administration c1959. Presumed First Edition First printing. Booklet. Good. Format is approximately 10.5 inches by 8 inches. 32 pages plus covers. 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.

2002Best.-Nr. 75970Washington DC: National Nuclear Security Administration 2002. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. DVD. Very good. The National Nuclear Security Administration's NNSA nuclear weapons complex NWC has identified developed and deployed successful high-value technologies in support of national security. The production plants testing facilities and national laboratories are a reservoir of technological capabilities unmatched in depth or breadth by any other institution. Cooperation between facilities involves interdisciplinary cross-facility knowledge exchanges at all levels of design and development to build perfectibility into the product. For example the Interplant Technology Team IPTT facilitates technical integration between NWC sites. This team promotes inter-site cooperation by helping to coordinate and focus resources that provide technology solutions. Reporting directly to the IPTT the Network of Senior Scientists and Engineers NSSE comprised of five scientists and engineers from each site meet quarterly to acknowledge and reward scientific excellence and to promote technical cooperation. The NWC is the steward of the Nation's defense nuclear mission-the military application of nuclear energy and the reducing of global danger from terrorism and weapons of mass destruction. The ability to address the threat of nuclear biological and chemical attacks and to protect high-value assets has assumed a higher priority. To that end the NNSA focus is on products and technologies that are immediately deployable. We can provide the crucial advantage needed to meet the terrorist threat in all conceivable forms and advance our national knowledge base to maintain the technological edge. This catalog of capabilities highlights those proven field-tested applications for deterrence and for rapid-response. National Nuclear Security Administration unknown
2013Best.-Nr. 76278Las Vegas: National Nuclear Security Administration Nevada Field Office/National Security Technologies Office of Public Affairs 2013. Presumed First thus. DVD-RW. Very good. This contains dozens of photographs from the event in JPG format. There are multiple images in files titled: Day 1 Day 2 Day 2 Part 2 Dinner Dinner 2 Kearsarge GZ NSF Group Photo Steakhouse and U1a-Jasper. The United States part of the Joint Verification Experiment carried out in 1988 as the Kearsarge event in Operation Touchstone. Twenty-five years later before tensions increased between Russia and the United States a joint commemoration of the event was held at the Nevada Nuclear Security Site formerly the Nevada Test Site. This DVD contains photographs taken throughout the two day event. The objective of the JVE was to calibrate the seismic yield estimation capability of underground nuclear explosions conducted in both countries. It involved the unprecedented US on-site yield measurement of a Soviet nuclear explosion at its then nuclear test site in Kazakhstan and the reciprocal Soviet on-site yield measurement of a US nuclear explosion at the Nevada Test Site. JVE provided the first opportunity for scientists from US and Soviet nuclear weapons laboratories to meet and work cooperatively. At the Nevada Test Site and at the follow-on experiment at the Soviet Semipalatinsk Test Site they developed confidence-building steps that made possible the ratification of the TTBT in 1990. Both Russians and Americans agree that cooperation between US and Soviet nuclear weapons scientists began with the JVE and the follow-on discussions on the TTBT verification mechanisms during the Geneva negotiations.

2008Best.-Nr. 80995Washington DC: National Nuclear Security Administration Office of Nonproliferation Research and Development NA-22 2008. Presumed First Edition First printing. Spiral bound. Very good. 27 1 pages including covers. Marked Official Use Only. This limitation is understood to no longer apply due to the passage of time and the public disclosure of comparable information in Congressional Budget Requests Congressional testimony and other information releases. The Atomic Energy Commission originally established the "Aerial Measurements Operations" at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas Nevada in the 1950s. It was created to serve the worldwide emergency system by providing rapid response to radiological emergencies. In 1976 the DOE established an Aerial Measurements Operations at Andrews Air Force Base - now called Joint Base Andrews - in Maryland to provide scientific and technical support to counterterrorism efforts during U.S. Bicentennial events in Washington D.C. With a location on each coast the RSL has served for over 50 years as a valuable national asset for nuclear emergency response and remote sensing capabilities. The Remote Sensing Laboratory RSL is a center for creating and using advanced technologies that provide a broad range of scientific technological and operational disciplines with core competencies in emergency response operations and support remote sensing and applied science and technologies in support of counterterrorism and radiological incident response. The National Nuclear Security Administration's NNSA Office of Nonproliferation Research and Development NA-22 has undertaken a multi-year planning effort to focus its research and development R&D efforts on enabling technologies to improve U.S. capabilities to detect and monitor nuclear weapons production proliferation and testing worldwide. NA-22 has developed an expert Remote Sensing Program working group to assist in this planning. This document is the initial result of the planning effort and its purpose was to established the program's goals objectives and requirements. The primary intent of this document is to 1 provide guidance to the investigators at national laboratories other NA-22 program managers and the user community to better focus future Remote Sensing Program proposals 2 provide a vehicle for user community input and 3 serve as a starting point for the subsequent technology roadmapping process.
