Condition: As New. Unread book in perfect condition.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Clean, tight, unmarked; crease to upper inside corner of back corner; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; This book is a collective effort on the part of many of the NASA flight controllers who "manned" the front row of consoles in Mission Control during the preeminent days of America's Manned Spaceflight Program. These controllers were the singular group in Mission Control Houston that was formed to work as a team. They were known as The TRENCH. In that same team spirit, this book about them and by them has been a collective endeavor. They have contributed their own mini autobiographies of life events that shaped their character and their roles and contributions that carried Man to the moon.

Karte. Condition: Sehr gut. Blanko-Index-Card von Charles F. Deiterich mit schwarzem Stift signiert mit eigenhändigem Zusatz "Apollo Retrofire Officier" /// (Mehrere Exemplare von diesem Motiv vorrätig) /// Signiert signed signée autograph autographe autogramm /// "Mr. Charles F. Deiterich received a BA in Physics and Math from Houston?s University of St. Thomas (1960) and an MS in Physical Science (space centered) from the University of Houston Clear Lake (1984). He is a Texas Registered Professional Engineer, a Private Pilot, an FAA Advanced Ground Instructor, and an FCC Amateur Radio Operator. Employed at NASA?s Johnson Space Center (1964-1994), he was the lead Apollo Retrofire Officer for most of the Apollo missions, and of particular note, were the first manned lunar orbit mission (Apollo ??, the first lunar landing mission (Apollo 11), and Apollo 13. He developed the Apollo 13 abort maneuver plan and combined vehicle trajectory sequencing, including the safe disposal of the radioactive fuel container on the lunar module. Later, he supported the Apollo/Soyuz and Skylab programs as a Flight Dynamics Officer. As the Shuttle Approach and Landing Flight Dynamics Officer, Mr. Deiterich designed the mated (Shuttle and Boeing 747) and free flight (Shuttle) profiles. These profiles satisfied the desired aerodynamic test conditions and vehicle systems operations. During the actual flights at Edwards Air Force Base, he was the flight controller responsible for trajectory control and execution of the flight plan. As Ascent/Entry Procedures Section Chief, he directed the development of the final approach glide slope lighting system for crew monitoring and manual control and the follow-on project that developed the Shuttle night landing lighting system. A manager in the Flight Design and Dynamics Division, Mr. Deiterich was the panel chairman of the technical committee of the source selection board for the Space Transportation System Operations Contract. He was the JSC Range Safety Manager responsible for coordinating and negotiating range safety agreements for the Shuttle Program Office with the US Air Force/Department of Defense (DoD) and other NASA centers. Following the Challenger accident, he chaired the joint NASA/DoD Range Safety Review Board to investigate the ground monitoring and control system, the flight systems, command destruct system, vehicle breakup and debris analyses, and onboard and ground procedures including range safety destruct criteria. Also as a result of the Challenger accident, Mr. Deiterich chaired the Flight Design Process Flow Evaluation Team to assess and reduce any risk associated with the flight design process including trajectory and guidance parameters, computer support systems, management of initialization data, and interaction with the other pre-mission planning activities. As Flight Analysis and Design System (FADS) Project Manager, he was responsible for managing and directing civil service and contractor efforts (about 300 engineers) in the development of a modern integrated flight design computer environment to replace the obsolete systems in use at the time. In addition to the platform and associated system services, over 5 million lines of application code were redesigned, consolidated, and/or rehosted from the previous systems? software libraries. Currently, Mr. Deiterich is a consulting engineer for various aerospace projects: participating in peer reviews of launch vehicle and spacecraft systems design and operations concepts. He also is a freelance technical writer, including several aviation related magazine articles. He is a member of the Airport Advisory Board for Burnet Municipal Kate Craddock Field" /// Standort Wimregal GAD-10.028ua Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.
