This is the premier issue of a quarterly publication of the Space Communications Program at the NASA Lewis Research Center. As such, it has become an extremely rare item in the space and the collectibles markets. A substantial amount of this issue's content is related to ACTS, the Advance Communications Technology Satellite. NASA is developing architecture technologies, communication system technologies, and subsystem and component technologies to enable NASA's future missions in science and human exploration. We develop space communication architectures via commercial ventures and international forums, and we are a major supporter of extending the Internet into space. Technologies are being developed to support intelligent, autonomous communications architectures that enable anytime, anywhere operations and provide end-to-end information delivery from space directly to users. Through coordinated studies with other NASA centers, government agencies, industry, and academia, our scientists and engineers are designing feasible communication network architectures that enable the storage, transmission, and dynamic routing of large amounts of data at high rates among space assets and between space and ground assets.

Oblong 4to. 11 x 8.5 in. ii, 26 pp. Photo frontisp., numerous photo plates, illustrations, map. Blue-tinted softcovers, illustrated on front cover showing gantry moving an Apollo capsule module, old flight control tower, black lettering (minor age toning, tinting), still VG copy. First edition of this very scarce in-house history of the North American Aviation company's Space & Information Systems Division which during the 1960's produced the command and service modules for the Apollo Spacecraft. The volume details the early engineering, manufacturing operations in California, and expansion through the 1930s of the Company as they built the C-47, BT-9, BC-1, XB-21, NA-40 Bomber ( the forerunner of the B-26), and the T-6 Trainer. This company history describes the development of the Mitchell B-25 Bomber, the XB-28 Bomber, and the P-51 Mustang, the wartime expansion. After World War II, North American Aviation would develop the Convair XF-92A, AJ-1 Savage, X-10, Little Joe Booster vehicle, Hound Dog missiles for the B-52, and finally Saturn V Apollo program components. Later, following the Apollo I fire, the company merged with Rockwell in 1967, and was renamed North American Rockwell, and then Rockwell International. No copies located in Worldcat.

ASTRONAUT OBSERVATIONS FROM THE APOLLO-SOYUZ MISSION by Faroul El-Baz. Smithonian Studies in Air and Space Number 1, Smithonian Institution Press, Washington 1. Auflage 1977, ERSTAUSGABE / FIRST EDITION, 400 SS. Pb. gr. 4°, ordentlich erhalten - mit eigenhändiger Widmung, Empfehlung, Unterschrift signiert "For Dr. Lothar Beckel / with best wishes / FAROUK EL-BAZ" (Widmungsempfänger = LOTHAR BECKEL (1934), böhmischer Kartograf und Unternehmer. 1962 hatte er bereits seine wissenschaftliche Laufbahn im Bereich der Geografie und der Satellitenbeobachtung begonnen. 1972 tauchten die ersten Satellitenbilder auf, die veröffentlicht wurden, und Beckel gehörte zu den ?Wissenschaftern der ersten Stunde?, die sich mit der neuen Materie intensiver beschäftigten. Am Institut für Geografie und Regionalforschung der Universität Wien war er über lange Jahre als Universitätsdozent tätig. 1977 war Beckel einer der sechs Kandidaten aus Österreich bei der Astronautenauswahl der Europäischen Weltraumorganisation (ESA) . Von 1984 bis 2007 war Beckel Inhaber eines Kartographieunternehmens zur Auswertung von Satellitenbilddaten und der Herstellung und dem Vertrieb kartografischer Produkte. Die GEOSPACE Beckel Satellitenbilddaten Gesellschaft m.b.H. sowie die Geospace International GmbH waren dabei als Institut für angewandte Forschung und praktische Anwendung von Fernerkundung mit Satellitenbilddaten und geographischen Informationssystemen tätig.

NASA technical research publications documenting key aerospace engineering studies conducted during the development of the Apollo program in the mid 1960s. The reports address rocket tracking systems, lunar landing guidance algorithms, aerodynamic stability during hypersonic flight, and plasma conditions affecting spacecraft communications during atmospheric reentry. Produced by research teams at Goddard Space Flight Center, Marshall Space Flight Center, and Langley Research Center, the documents illustrate the interdisciplinary scientific work required to achieve human spaceflight and lunar exploration. Archive of four NASA Technical Notes produced between 1965 and 1967 accompanied by four Apollo 14 commemorative sheets issued by the Space Stamp Collectors Society in Jerusalem. The reports include: [1] The Rocket Interferometer Tracking (RIT) System (NASA TN D-2682, March 1965), authored by Michael Spafford, Richard Wiack, and Ronald Woodman of Goddard Space Flight Center, discusses the development of high-precision tracking systems for rockets and satellites using interferometry. Unlike traditional radar or automatic tracking antennas, the RIT system used "a real-time measurement technique" that derived "the phase difference of signals arriving at two pairs of antennas," allowing for accurate angular position tracking of sounding rockets. The authors state, "the ambiguity of the interferometer data is resolved by rocket velocity. keeping track of correct interferometer lobe," a key breakthrough for mid-1960s telemetry and trajectory analysis. [2] An Iterative Guidance Scheme and Its Application to Lunar Landing (NASA TN D-2869, July 1965), authored by Helmut J. Horn, Daniel T. Martin, and Doris C. Chandler of Marshall Space Flight Center, presents a guidance model to enable "vehicle flight from lunar orbit to a prescribed point on a spherical, non-rotating moon." Unlike fully adaptive systems, the model uses "a limited number of presettings, the closeness to optimization, the closed form solution, and the 'homing' feature," thus allowing for mid-course correction without real-time computing. Such guidance work directly anticipated the descent phase of the Apollo Lunar Module, making this a critical document in the transition from theoretical models to executable moon-landing protocols. [3] Some Effects of Jet Pluming on the Static Stability of Ballistic Bodies at a Mach Number of 6.00 (NASA TN D-3698, November 1966) by Robert J. McGhee of Langley Research Center, investigates the impact of engine exhaust on aerodynamic stability. Conducted in a hypersonic wind tunnel, the tests examined shock-induced separation and control loss, concluding that jet-plume interactions caused "significant decreases in both normal-force coefficients and stability derivatives." Such findings were crucial for designing both reentry vehicles and launch configurations, where thrust-induced instability could jeopardize control. [4] Deduction of Reentry Plasma Properties About Manned Orbital Spacecraft from Radio Signal Attenuation Data (NASA TN D-4118, August 1967), by Paul W. Huber, also of Langley, compares Mercury and Gemini data with theoretical plasma models. The paper attributes the electron concentration drop during reentry to "ablation impurities in the near-wake viscous flow regions." Huber's model explains signal blackout during reentry-a major concern in the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions-and suggests mitigation strategies by manipulating boundary layer chemistry. Accompanying the 4 reports are also four printed Apollo 14 ephemera sheets issued by the Space Stamp Collectors Society, Jerusalem. Archive condition is very good, light creasing and faint wear to corners; minor toning to edges; some Hebrew printed library labels at top margins of each report cover, not affecting legibility.
