1982Best.-Nr. 717Ames Research Center 1982. Hardcover. Fine. Red cloth binding with gilt titles to the spine. Quarto 11 x 9" The Controlled Ecological Life Support System CELSS program ran for about 25 years between the late 1970s and early 2000s with related work continuing today. The goal of CELSS was to create an enclosed biological system that could sustain astronauts indefinitely. It relied especially on plants which recycle waste into food and oxygen. Kennedy Space Center spent decades developing indoor farming techniques for crops and even fish to support a closed-loop life-support system for space travel. Eleven bound research reports from NASA contractors include: Emmett J. Johnson: Genetic engineering Possibilities for CELSS: A Bibliography and Summary of Techniques. March 1982 G. M.

Constructed between 1987 and 1991 Biosphere 2 was an experiment on the viability of closed ecological systems to support and maintain human life in outer space as a substitute for Earth's biosphere. The largest ever created it was a two-year closure 1991- 1993 with a crew of eight people and was only used once more in 1994 for its original intended purposes. Both attempts ran into problems including low amounts of food and oxygen die-offs of many animals and plants and group dynamic tensions. . Ames Research Center hardcover

1755Best.-Nr. SB-22877Leipzig, Carl Ludwig Jacobi, 1755. 2 Bl., S. 809 - 2024, 2 Bl. Hardcoverband der Zeit mit zeittypischem Buntpapierbezug und dreiseitigem Rotschnitt. Grundlagenwerk des Braunschweiger Ökonomen Georg Heinrich Zincke (1692 - 1768) zur sich konstituierenden Disziplin der Kameralwissenschaften. Zincke hatte von 1740 an einen Lehrauftrag an der Universität Leipzig in diesem neu gegründeten Fach inne. Da er die zu diesem Zeitpunkt vorliegenden Lehrbücher als ungenügend erachtete, gab er 1742 zunächst einen "Grund-Riß einer Einleitung zu denen Cameral-Wissenschaften" heraus. 1745 folgte er einem Ruf Herzogs Karls I. an die Universität Braunschweig auf einen Lehrstuhl für Kameral- und Polizeywissenschaften. Hier bemühte er sich in der Folgezeit um die Differenzierung und wissenschaftliche Systematisierung der neuen Disziplin. Seine 1755 herausgegebenen "Anfangsgründe der Cameralwissenschaft" zeigen seinen Versuch, das Fach als Wissenschaft umfassend zu etablieren; erstmals auch wurden hier Problem der Betriebswirtschaftslehre, die erst viel später von Eugen Schmalenbach (1873 - 1955) zur eigenständigen Wissenschaft geformt werden sollte, in die ökonomische Gesamtbetrachtung einbezogen. Zincke darf damit nicht nur als Nestor der Kameralwissenschaft, sondern auch als einer der ersten Wirtschaftswissenschaftler in Deutschland gelten. Der hier vorliegende Band gliedert sich in drei Abteilungen: I. Erdenbau (Wald-, Forst- und Holzwesen; Schmelz- un d Siedwerk; Grabe-, Bruch- und Bergwerke). II. Landwirtschaftliche Viehhaltung (zahmes Haushaltungsvieh; Federvieh; Jagd, Vogelfang und Fischerey). III. Stadtwirtschaft und Policey (Stadtwirtschaft und Städte; Wissenschaft, Künste, Schulen; Handwerke, Manufacturen,, Fabricen; Handlungs- und Kramgeschäfte; Stadtmühlenwesen).
