This memorandum reiiner and reducer, in volmos, thq inf ormation -provided in my memorandum of Uay 3 with respect to the national space program. The in£ormat ion in oogmized into five' paragrephe correrponding to the five questions rained in the Prcrident's memorandm of April 9, 1963.

1. COEIPARISON OF PROCW. The. only definitive way we have found to compare the program of the lart a~nistratiohwith that of . the present one ir to compare the last loag range plan prepared by NASA under the Eisenhwer Adahirtratioo (January 1961). and the first long range plan prepared by NASA der the prerent adminiatration (January 1962). Cwprriroar of tho kfor Hireion Tuget Dater ' (Enclosure 1) and of the Budget Projectim (Enclorute 2) of thre two plam are attached.

~eithe;. of thise had Presidential. approval, and there is . . doubt that President Eisenhower wer fully approved more of NhSA's . . long range plan than a run-out of the iterne lucluded in hie FT 1962 ' budget request for $1.159 billion.

. A. comparison of accomplirbmentcr under the 1961 and 1962 plans, baeed on the aseumption that both plane were succerrful, wouid not be . meaningful lu the, light of current knowledge. For .em&le, U'e studies in February and March 1961 rhowed that the vehLcle aMi the related boostere., ae ptwfouely planned, could not meet the technical requiremente of the. medlunar Iandfng. Furthermore, by the time the 1962 plan was formulated,, there had been delay8 fa achieving milestoner under the 1961 plan which'nece~ritated.a later. achedullng'under the 1962 plan of certain mileetoner caomon to both plans.

It general, the principal advances under the 1962 plan are 8s f6llowe: '. ,

a. The advancement of the medlunar hndiag fran 80me time aft= 1970 to the 1967-1970 parid la, of courre, the major fornard rtep, and i. rerplble for th principal incrsllre in the erpend%hne forart6 t. t. DECLASSIFIED b. A new launch vehicl'e, the 5, was introduced in the 1962 plan. hie booster vill have ffve time6 the capacity of the largeet booster in the 1961 plan. It wfll be,capable of supporting manned lunar landings whereae the largest booster previouely planned, the Saturn 2, would not. b c. The introduction of the Gemini program will significantly - advance the country's erpert'eace with manned orbital operatione. It introduces the concept of orbital rendezvous, nof~envisionedby the previoue plan.

d, In the area of Space Sciencee, the i962 plan activated - the program for large orbital observatories: the ,geophysidl, solar, . and aetronomical obeervatories. Satme of these were only in the .planning stage, and others were emrbioned cn a %educed scale Ln the 1961 program.

e. In order.to aseure pre-eminenqe in space aver en . extended period, it is cowidered essential to hest in research and advanced technology looking tward the future. The aumnted iad more carefully planned prograe nw in being givee the nation a signifFcrntly greater thrust toward a round technological bcee on which' to proceed with difficult apace exploration mirrio~. . % f. In *the program of Applicatiofis, the lw . connnunicatioha and weather eatellitee vauld have 'been achieved under . either plan. The 1962 plan, however, introduced the synchronous eetellite which holds, great prmise for the ultimate -coamunications system. ! . . The NASA long range plan of ~an&ry1962 not only prwided for an acceleration of the lunar landing and booster development programs, but also for eubetantial increases in the space'science and ap61icationa activities and flights. The supplemental requests sent to. the Congress jn May of 1961 started many of the .project8 vhich were reflected in . 1 that plan. Encloeure 2 is a canpa'rat+ve tabulation shaving: (1) originally projected funding requirements of the January 1961 program, (2) uprard revision of these funding requirements prepared in April 1961, and (3) origimlly projected funding requiranents of the January 1962 plan. / In the spring 'of 1961, Congress was informed that the cost of the manned lunar. program (up to the f iret blandFng) would range between ,' $20 billion and $40 billion. Current '(Hap 1963) ertinutzr rhaw tbat thLb program will be iccaupli8hed at or near the $20 billion figure.

The capability of ;Icteozological system to prevent iniilions of dollars of Iropcrty d-ge and loss of life by providing advance warn\ijlg of severe stoms has been derhonstrat@. - I '1n addition to providing infohation immediately useful in weather forecasting, Pe iacrezsed understanding of weather processes will cake possible better and longer range forecasttng to pernit better piamins in many areas of the nation's economy and perhaps may ulti- ixitely lead to ne~hodsof werther control ot modification.

Comunicatim sztellites to provide increased worlcwide .comunfca~io~swill not uiily establish a new industry in itself, but wil resuit in new econoaies and patterns in trade through- out the world. & \ 1' l.!e can look forward ta navigatLon satellite systems which will provide substantizl Sezeiits and economies to the varGus transportation industries.

' We can alsa look forward Eo the use of satellites for the,' -collection of data an 3 global'bzsis. Such satellites could.:provide for the collection of data iron weather balloons,' oceanographic buoys, tLdal warning stations, and perhaps even chart the co-urses of wildlife.

These. f pplkations will result Lit mediate economic ebenef it- to the nation but they are o3ly radz possible because of-the present understanding of basic science and technology which was painstakingly accumulated in the past, ' bb SCLENTLFIC KNOWLEDGE J ECecent history ehows clearly that advinces in fundamental understanding of natural phenomena-aa in the understanding of thee atom--produce major effects in the economic aphere, though these effects are not initially foreseen.

Space exploration by means of space probes and satellites offers the opportunity to obtain fundamental understanding in four broad areas of current sciantific intereat: .. (I) the sun and its influence on the earth, including the nature of the interplhetairy space environment,

' (2) origin and nature of the solar system,

(3) astronomy, and d (4) theoriginof life. E Scientific advance on the scale of the current space program must inevitably open new advances in technology end thrur new avenue8 of economic use. It is in tenoa of the broad, basic, scientif ic advance and the accompanying technological advance that the science of space will hve its greatest economic impact:

Earth and Sun"

The sun. is one of the most important objects for man to study. . The sun is the majot source of energy in the salar system. %tcontrols the weathehon earth; supp6rts or disrupts comaunications depending' uponsolar activity; and determines the interplanetary environment, A major portion of the NASA effort iq directed toward a better under- . staading' o4 the sun and its influence on the earth. Observatorias above the earth's atmosphere make it possible to investigate the sun and its activity with a thoroughness not possible from the ground, The uitzaviolet, X-ray, radio, and infrared radiations are absorbed %the upper atmosphere.and control the properties of that region. They do not reach the groud but can be observed and measured from space platforme, They provide a great deal of new and very valuable information on the properties of the solar chromosphere and the ; on the nature of sunspots; and on the processes which take place in solar flares, I

Satellites and sounding have shown that the upper - ,

atmosphere and ionoephere are erceedingly complex regions, nubject to ! gross and suddea cbangea, dependent on activity on tha nun. Large . 1 I- L temperzture changes occur between day and nigh$, and between sunspot maximum qd sunspot min+m, The compo.sition , ionization, temperature and the density are controlled by solar el!ec.kromagnetic and particle radiations, The atmosphere is important bewuse it comprises the source and substance of our everyday weath,er. The ionosphere is impor- tant because, it furnishes the means :by whikh radio waves may be reflected beyond' the horizon, thereby,making it ppscible to comunicate around the world. Correlated measurements.:with sounding rockets arid satellites of solar activity, the properties of the. upper atmosphere, and conditions . on the surface should determine the mechanism by which solar activity affects the surface weather on earth: . I. ' .. . . Y i Beyond the sensible amsphere of the earth, above about 500 Km, is a region of space whose properties are controlled by .the earth's magnetic field. This region is called the . The Van Allen Belts are contained within the magnetosphere. .. . Satellite-borne Instruments plot out;the earth's magnetic field; measure the"radiati6n levels in the Van Allen belts; and record the particles whfch create the auroras in the far North and South. The radiation levels in thb van Allen belts determine the regions of space within which ~ercury,Gemini, Apollo, and Manned Space Stations can fly. d d, n also use satellices to study the earth itself. Obsepa- tions on Onethe CL fluence qf the eartht s shape and mass distribution on the orbit of the satellite enablecthe scien'tist to determine the density of the earth's interior and to measure the distribution of matter within the earth. This data is required for accurate trajectory cal'culations.

Surromding the .sun and exteqding out to some distance beyond the otbit of the .earth'is an interplznetary medium through which there is a continual flow of plasma,. the , whose density and velocity fluctuates with solar activity. ~his'flowof plasma determines the configuration of the weak inteiPlanetary magnetic fields. These weak fields, acting over large distances, determine the trajectories of cosmic rays. ~ccasionall~~during a large solar flare, large numbers of solar .cosmic rays are ejected dto space, thereby increasing the radiation levels. The magnitude nnd duration of such an incrysed radiation level is also determined by the configuration of these weak - fields. All of this is riew infonarition which we have obtained from satellites Pioneers and Mariner 11. All of it is information whith we need. to def ine the environment in space and to determine the infludnce . of the sun on the earth. . 4 I Moon and Planets

. 1n the field of science, the moon is of patticular interest because it may furnish one of the most significant clues to the question . - ... -5- of how the earth and the other planets of thb solar system originated.- The lunar surface is likely to have preserved she record of past events i going .back billions of years, perhaps nearly to the tine of its origin , 44 billion years ago. This record has remained unmarred by the erosion of atmospheres and oceans, and by mountain-building processes. On the earth, the surface record is lost because of these atmoepheric and mountain-building processes.

The opportunities that lie ahead will- be of interest to many disciplines but should be especially attractive to the geophysicist, Most of the techniques that will be required to observe and make measurements on these bodies will be of. those of the geophystcist.

These forthcoming opportunities not only broaden the horizons ' of tKe geophysicist by extending the range of his investigations to other planets', but also broaden the perspecfiive in which the geophysi-

cist can view the earth. Comparative i.nvestigations of earth,'moon, ' and planets will contribute greatly to the &nderstandinglof each one, . and also to the understanding of 1the solar system, Wasurements of lunar sd rf ace characteristics will provide data of fundamental value to the design of the Apollo pacec craft. ,

-I Stars and Galaxies

In the past ground-based observations have been limited to the very narro range of wave lengths in the visible portion of the spectrum. 9these observations the astronomer has put together a truly remar ble body of astronomical knowledge and theory,

everth he less; this limitation to the visible spectrum is a

very serious limitation .indeed, The most ' fundamental processes in the ' .birth of stars can be observed only in the infrared, while the most exciting portions of the evolution of the are observable only in . the ultriviolet. For this reason, the satellite orbiting.above the earth's atmosphere opens up valuable new opportunities to the astronomer. - One of the most important .programs in NASA, the Orbiting Astronomical Obsenratory, is designed to exploit these new ties in astronomy. Carrying hstrumenks and telescopes earth's atmosphere, OAO will permit observations in all spectrum, 1 The lunar and planetary probes provide an opportunity for astronomers to observe the planets of the solar system at close range,

The astronomer and cosmologist use spacecraft in satellite about the earth or on escape trajectories from the earth to perfom experioents in .relativity; gravity; celestial sechanics; . galactic cosmic rays; and magnetodynamics on a scale utterly unobtain- onathe surface of the earth. /

b v Life in Space Certainly one of the most exciting 2ossibilities in space ' exploration is that indigenous life nay be found outside the earth. For this reason, preparations are going forward with various types of instruments to search for living roms on other planets, particularly blars. These will be carried in fly-bys and landers as soon as the neces- --L sary t~ansportationis available. All data available at present would indicate that ohere is little likelihood of life on . Various U radio astronomical and the Xariner I1 observations of the planet Wi- cat4 that the surface temperatures are in the vicinit of-800°K, well over the boiling point of water. If life has formed in these planets, itnustbebothsimilar to,andyetdifferent from, thatwhichexists on the earth. A knowledge of these life forms would provide us deep .. insight into the basic dynamics of life formation and life processes.

Advanced Research and Technology w f)

I In addition to the scientific knowledge obtained from actual ... flights in space, NASA's advanced research and technology program produces scientific Knowledge on a broad front, covering many branches ,I . of physics , chemistry, mathematics, engineering science,. and physio- i logical and biological. science. As history amply demonstrates, discoveries in one field profour;dly affect others, and Ge can, there- I fore, expect widespread influence in other scientific and technical endeavors.

c . LWUSTW PRODUCTIVITY - The space effort is. extending the industrial capability of the United States in a major way for fo-ur main reasons:

* (1) The exploration of space invo+ves*large net additions to the industrial base in $he form of enginewing teams and capital 2 facilities which constitute continuing national resources,

(2) The exploration of space involves virtually all fields of science and engineering.; from anatomy to electronics systems to the effects of zero gravity on both the animate and inanimate.

(3) The harsh environment of spice typically requires g. fundamental advance in the state-of-the-art in nany areas. A high ' proportion of NASA researeh and development fundpre spent in

------'I' extending the csisting technology to new, more rigorous and efficient uses; and in :inding new suteridls, zew systems, operating at higher levels of reliability over long periods of time in a radicglly dif- f erent environment.

(4) The exploration of spece gn the scale inva1~-ed i requires a major contribution to the technique of managing large-' "- research and development efforts. In World G!ar 11, the Hanhattan Project was tk largest effort of chis type that the United States had carried out to date. In the 19501s, we increased our national capability with the help of the eqterience gained in the ballistic ~issileprograms. In Project XpoLlo, we are engaged in another large enterprise, which involves thousands of persons working in many loca- tions throughout the United States in accordance with a single, overall schedule. completing this endeavor successfully will provide the ability and competence to go on to still more ambitious national undertakings, when required. i Sone examples of actual and potential increased industrial capability and efficiency brought on by the space program are set forth in the~followingparagraphs:

1 (1) An infrared horizon sensing device used in the Mercury spacecraft has been adapted to use by steel makers in measuring rods of hot ste%l.before these rods are cooled, thus not only insuring accuracy but achieving a savings in cost.

(2) Through h'ASl's use of fiberglas refractor) welding tape, !it is possible to obtain a smoth seam with a single pass outfide weld, thus cutting welding costs in half.

(3) Fluororethylene propylene has been used to release the aluinum star-shaped insert from the sticky solid .propellant after casting. This appears to have application to plywood laminating presses, furniture gluing clamps or rubber gasket molds.

(4) The need,for new sources of power for acecraft has . concentrated work on the' lohg-tbe goal of developing a fuel cell which will trahsfom chemical energy froa fuel directly into electrical energy, with high efficiency. NASA requirements for the use of solkr cells are advancipg the state-of-the-art in this .area, and this again has implications for widespread use. , .

- (5) In aeronautics, NASA is making significant contribu- to the supersonic transport program. Research on vertical and take+££ and landing aircraft is expected to produce benefits in air transportation. (6) A membrane being develpped for a spacecraft life . support system has the prospect of becoming an effective filter against detergents. 4

(7) To simGlate the heating conditions under which a space vehicle re-enters the atmosphere, the Langley Research Cearter developed an arc gas heater which employs a radial magnetic field to'rotate an electric arc at high velocity between two circular water-cdgled e1.e~- trodes. ~idw'estResearch Institute, in its trans.l&ion of this item to industrial use, estimates that the' use of this arc heater'to convert natural gas into acetylene may result in a considerabl'e.reduction in . the cost of producing acetylene. *

d. EDUCATION

During this decade, NASA'will expend nearly one billion dollar in space related. t'esearch and development atiuniversities and other institutions of higher learning. Two thirds of this amount will be for research and technology in direct support of program and project goals.: ,

This university participation ia carried on by highly trained and capa-' . \ ble groups of faculty and graduate etudente working in three major areas: , . . .. . a. (1) sponsored university research programs on a broad front covering many branches of physics', chemistry, mathematics, engineering sciences,. and physiological and biological sciences. .fl , (2) Development of new, improved, o: more sophisticated spacecraft instrumentation generally for scientific. data acqufsition but also including engineerids technology..

(3) Analysis and interpretation of scientific and engineer- ing data acquked through execution of NASA flight mLssions. A This essential flarticipation on the part of American alleges and universities produces not only a coctimous stream of trained. scientists and engheers with-'some eer'kilce in space research, but also yields the major share.of new knowledge in space sciences. In Fiscal Year 1963 universities will conduct about $35 million on research, development, and data analysis directly related to NASq missions. J In addLCion, NASA has instituted a sustaining university program designed to meet NASA'sneeds while at the same tim strengthening the colleges and univereitiee, kreasing the supp2y of tachnical msnpower, L and encouraging close relations between education and industry to advance the space progrant while stimulating econo* growth. e i; In order to increase the nation's s;pply of scientific and technical manpower, S:SA has icstituted a, graduate training progran, - begun in 1962 with the awzrd of-pen training grants to each of ten uni\xrsities for a total of 100 students for a-period of three years. In 1963, $15 nillion of additional grants were made, bringing the total to ,886 students in 88 different universities. It is intended to make additional grants in Fiscal Year 1964 with the total dumber of institu- tions rising. to about 110. Ultimately the intention is td start some , 1350 studenG annually, ar which time NASA will be supporting about 4000 trainees with an expected output rate of about 1000 PhD.'s per I year.. - %l -. ..

An essenizial' aspect. of this progran is' that the grants are + made to the institurion. Candidates are selected by the institution - for work at that university. The resulting wide geographical distribu- tion provides a basis for encourzging and increasing scientific -strength in places where additioral strength is needed. . Also in Fiscal Year 1963, $10 nillion are-being used for the constructlooq of space related reseatch facilities in unive.rsities.

The NASA progrw in set-bhdary education is small but designed to encourage Capable young people to embark on careers in science, - mathemtics and eniineering, develop in all children a higher level of scientific literacy, and *prove the teaching .of science and mathema- ' ,tics by updating ccutses to include information arising from space .

research. Much of it is accolhplished through-. spacemobile demonstrations at school+ b .. Less tangible, but not to be overlooked, is . space activity as a stinulus to educational interest on the part of American youth, and on the bnprovement o'f American schools. Dr. Lee 1juBridge has said the latter "alonf: +y be worth the cost 'of all our . space rockets." -

b. In USA's judgment the following categories of prqrams should receive strong considera.tion for initiation within the next several years. Each proposal should, however, be considered on its own merits at the praper the. Although' specific rec~en&rionsare not being ade in the present context, it should be observed that the progr- wtlined could be conducted within this decade at tdtal pro-. gram fuixling levels .cot appreciably exceeding FY 1964 require.e&s. Soace Sciences - Tollow-on projects should be iniciazed =o zaintain the current level of activity in the dctermina- \ion-of the properties of space. Larger planetary spacecraft should be developed for more significant exp10,ration of Venus ,and Mars. A suitable injection stage should be developed for the Saturn to perform these planetary' sissions.

The plans adopted by the present Administration include the following: *

a. Extension of the Nercury program. , ' \- b. Project Gcmini, which will produce an operational two-man spacecraft ca'pable of' flights lasting cp to two week, and space flight trajectory chznges that wiil make rendezvous maneuvers possible.

c. Development of the Saturn I3 llzunch vehicle for boosting pay- loads weighing up to 32,000 pounas iato earth orbit.

C. Develop~entof the lacnch vehicle to bookt 240,000 pounds into earth orbit, or to launch 90,000. pouhds into a lunar trajectory. 1ts earth-orbital payload will be the equivalent of 80 Nercury spacecraft. The first stage of this vehicle will be five times as powerful as that of the . .

e. Developnent of the Apollo spacecraft, consisting of three saparzte modules, and thereafter, operational flights carried out in thz fo1 lowing manner:
