FOREWORD

In accordance with the NASA Space Act of 1958, the MSFC has provided for the widest practicable and appropriate dissemination of information concerning its activities and the results thereof.

Since July 1, 1960, when the George C. Marshall Space Flight Center was organized, the reporting of scientific and engineering information has been considered a prime responsibility of the Center. Our credo has been that "research and development work is valuable, but only if its results can be communicated and made understandable to others."

The N number shown for the reports listed is assigned by the Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI), Baltimore, Maryland, indicating that the material is unclassified and unlimited and is available for public use. These publications can be purchased from the National Technical Information Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, Virginia 22161. The N number should be cited when ordering.
