During the decade from 1989–1998, NASA used two types of launch systems, one consisting of several families of expendable launch vehicles (ELV) and the second consisting of the world’s only partially reusable launch system—the Space Shuttle. A significant challenge NASA faced during the decade was the development of technologies needed to design and implement a new reusable launch system that would prove less expensive than the Shuttle. Although some attempts seemed promising, none succeeded. This chapter addresses most subjects relating to access to space and space transportation. It discusses and describes ELVs, the Space Shuttle in its launch vehicle function, and NASA’s attempts to develop new launch systems. Tables relating to each launch vehicle’s characteristics are included. The other functions of the Space Shuttle—as a scientific laboratory, staging area for repair missions, and a prime element of the Space Station program—are discussed in the next chapter, Human Spaceflight. This chapter also provides a brief review of launch systems in the past decade, an overview of policy relating to launch systems, a summary of the management of NASA’s launch systems programs, and tables of funding data. The Last Decade Reviewed (1979–1988) From 1979 through 1988, NASA used families of ELVs that had seen service during the previous decade.

Previous astronomical, astrophysical and statistical analyses of CC support the idea that this was the period of the eclipsing binary Algol three millennia ago. However, next to nothing is known about who recorded Algol’s period into CC and especially how. Here, we show that the ancient Egyptian scribes had the possible means and the motives for such astronomical observations. Their principles of describing celestial phenomena as activity of gods reveal why Algol received the title of Horus Keywords: Algol, Horus, ancient Egyptian Astronomy, variable stars, the Cairo Calendar, hemerologies 1 Introduction ies (Porceddu et al., 2008; Jetsu et al., 2013; Jetsu and Porceddu, 2015), we use only the best preserved continuous calendar which is found on pages recto III-XXX and verso The ancient Egyptian texts known as the Calendars of I-IX of papyrus Cairo 86637.The other texts and fragments Lucky and Unlucky Days, or hemerologies, are literary contained in the same papyrus are ignored from this analy- works that assign prognoses to each day of the Egyp- sis because the connection of these fragments to the main tian year (Wells, 2001a, p117-118), (Leitz, 1994, p1-2) (Bacs, calendar is not apparent and we do not know what year 1990, p41-45) (Troy, 1989, p127-147) and (Helck et al., 1975– they describe, so combining any data points from these 1992, p156).

    NASA SP-IO Office of Scientific and Technical Information NA110NAl AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION Washington, D.C. • November 1962 front (over: Atlas-Agena B INTRODUCTION THE space research pro­ gram of the United States, leading in the years just ahead to manned exploration of the moon, and in the more distant future to manned exploration of the near planets, turns on the ability of our scientists and en­ gineers to provide the means for p'ropelling useful pay­ loads through the earth's enveloping atmosphere and into the void of space. For this task, launch vehicles of a number of sizes and capabilities are necessary. Con­ sequently, the United States is developing a family of launch vehicles ranging in size and power from the slender Scout to the giant Nova. Obviously, it would be unwise to use a ten-ton truck to carry a few parcels or to risk a break-down by overloading a small truck. Similarly, it would be im­ practicable to use Saturn or Nova to orbit a small, light­ weight group of scientific instruments, or take the risk of failure involved in placing too much weight on any size rocket. Either would be expensive and inefficient. By developing a family of reliable launch vehicles, the Nation will have available the right size for the right job and avoid the expense of employing vehicles that are either larger and more powerful than necessary, or are marginal in power for the job at hand. [ I ] • For each of the nation's launch vehicles, missions have been assigned. These missions range from scientific research and exploration to tasks vitally necessary for the national defense.

  • CODE WORDS for OVERHEAD ALUMINUM ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS
    Draft 4, distributed Nov 23, 1998 editorial corrections Dec 10th, 1998 editorial corrections Jan 12th, 1999 CODE WORDS for OVERHEAD ALUMINUM ELECTRICAL CONDUCTORS SEVENTH EDITION January 1999 Aluminum Association Code Words FOREWORD For many years manufacturers of electrical conductors have assigned code words to their products to aid in identifying the different types and sizes of conductors in catalogs, orders, in- voices and other production and sales records. As the number of different types and sizes of conductors increased over the years, the number of code words increased until by 1960 more than 1,200 such words were in use. In some instances the same words came to be used to designate more than one conductor. With more new constructions, new types of insulation, different tempers and other variations in the offing, there was a potential need for many more code words. Recognizing this situation, the Technical Committee on Electrical Conductor of The Aluminum Association's Electrical Technical Division in 1960 initiated a study aimed at reducing the number of code words required for these products. During its study the Subcommittee considered several different systems. Some would have accomplished the desired reduction in number of code words but were considered too complicated for practical use. The system finally adopted retains the code words now in use but provides for designating variations in construction, temper, and type of covering or insulation by the use of suffixes to existing code words, thus greatly reducing the number of new code words that otherwise would be required in the future. The conductors referenced in Tables 1 through 47 are manufactured in accordance with applicable ASTM Specifications.
