Bibliography
Annotated List of Works Cited Primary Sources Newspapers “Apollo 11 se Vraci na Zemi.” Rude Pravo [Czechoslovakia] 22 July 1969. 1. Print. This was helpful for us because it showed how the U.S. wasn’t the only ones effected by this event. This added more to our project so we had views from outside the US. Barbuor, John. “Alunizaron, Bajaron, Caminaron, Trabajaron: Proeza Lograda.” Excelsior [Mexico] 21 July 1969. 1. Print. The front page of this newspaper was extremely helpful to our project because we used it to see how this event impacted the whole world not just America. Beloff, Nora. “The Space Race: Experts Not Keen on Getting a Man on the Moon.” Age [Melbourne] 24 April 1962. 2. Print. This was an incredibly important article to use in out presentation so that we could see different opinions. This article talked about how some people did not want to go to the moon; we didn’t find many articles like this one. In most everything we have read it talks about the advantages of going to the moon. This is why this article was so unique and important. Canadian Press. “Half-billion Watch the Moon Spectacular.” Gazette [Montreal] 21 July 1969. 4. Print. This source gave us a clear idea about how big this event really was, not only was it a big deal in America, but everywhere else in the world. This article told how Russia and China didn’t have TV’s so they had to find other ways to hear about this event like listening to the radio. -

Earthrise, seen for the first time by human eyes On Christmas Eve 1968 three American astronauts were in orbit around the Moon: Frank Borman, James Lovell, and Bill Anders. The crew of Apollo 8 had been declared by the United Nations to be the ‘envoys of mankind in outer space’; they were also its eyes.1 They were already the first people to leave Earth orbit, the first to set eyes on the whole Earth, and the first to see the dark side of the Moon, but the most powerful experience still awaited them. For three orbits they gazed down on the lunar surface through their capsule’s tiny windows as they carried out the checks and observations prescribed for almost every minute of this tightly-planned mission. On the fourth orbit, as they began to emerge from the far side of the Moon, something happened. They were still out of radio contact with the Earth, but the on- board voice recorder captured their excitement. Borman: Oh my God! Look at that picture over there! Here’s the Earth coming up. Wow, that is pretty! Anders: Hey, don’t take that, it’s not scheduled. -
A Journey: the International Space Station an Annotated Storyboard: an Example of How to Create a Digital Story
A Journey: The International Space Station An Annotated Storyboard: An Example of How to Create a Digital Story This was my first attempt to create a digital story, and in fact the first time I had ever done video editing on the computer. As a result, it is not perfect. The original intent had been to create a digital story of no more than about 7 minutes length, that told of some aspect of my life, Work or interests. It was to include a variety of images and videos from several sources, have a soundtrack, and my own narration. One of the first things you are told when you go to build a digital story, is to create a storyboard to lay out your ideas, scenes, script and thoughts, aims and goals for each segment of the story. This was not how I created this story. I think visually. My first steps were to review my extensive image and video collection to identify source material and a list of topics from which I would begin my work, and from that, to select a series of videos and still images which I would try to incorporate in my story, and lay them out in a meaningful order. My original idea was to talk about different spacecraft and how they operate. But during the initial review of a preliminary draft of that story, my mentor asked, “why is this meaningful for you” and, when I showed videos of the interior of the space station, he asked “well I see a bunch of stuff, but what is it?” This set me off in a somewhat different direction from where I had started. -
Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Scaled Hypersonic Re-Entry Vehicles
Computational Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Scaled Hypersonic Re-Entry Vehicles A project presented to The Faculty of the Department of Aerospace Engineering San Jose State University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering by Simon H.B. Sorensen March 2019 approved by Dr. Periklis Papadopoulous Faculty Advisor 1 i ABSTRACT With the advancement of technology in space, reusable re-entry space planes have become a focus point with their ability to save materials and utilize existing flight data. Their ability to not only supply materials to space stations or deploy satellites, but also in atmosphere flight makes them versatile in their deployment and recovery. The existing design of vehicles such as the Space Shuttle Orbiter and X-37 Orbital Test Vehicle can be used to observe the effects of scaling existing vehicle geometry and how it would operate in identical conditions to the full-size vehicle. These scaled vehicles, if viable, would provide additional options depending on mission parameters without losing the advantages of reusable re-entry space planes. 2 Table of Contents Abstract . i Nomenclature . .1 1.

Visions of the Universe: Four Centuries of Discovery One-Hour
Visions of the Universe: Four Centuries of Discovery One-Hour Exhibit Tour / Program “Visions of the Universe: Four Centuries of Discovery” was produced in December 2008 by the Space Telescope Science Institute, the American Library Association, and the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, through funding from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Some guidelines from NGS standards 2nd – 4th grade: Science and Engineering Practices - Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions - Constructing explanations and designing solutions in K–2 builds on prior experiences and progresses to the use of evidence and ideas in constructing evidence-based accounts of natural phenomena and designing solutions. - Make observations from several sources to construct an evidence-based account for natural phenomena. Disciplinary Core Ideas The History of Planet Earth – Some events happen very quickly; others occur very slowly, over a time period much longer than one can observe. Crosscutting Concepts Stability and Change – Things may change slowly or rapidly. In this program, the educator will guide a group through the “Visions of the Universe” exhibit, which consists of 12 panels mounted on foam board. Reading the text of each poster, and showing the depictions of space objects, exploration and achievements, the educator will present a big-picture view of the history of astronomy. At certain points, depending on time and group, you may connect the concepts of a given poster to one of the suggested “Earth and Space” activities. Refer to the supplemental materials in the “Visions of the Universe” binder for the background knowledge you will need to answer any questions that may come up! I. Visions of the Universe Intro “Telescopes have transformed not only our views of the universe, but also our understanding of the planets, stars, and galaxies within it.” After reading the poster, pause to let kids look through one of our Galileoscopes. -
