Project Apollo: Americans to the Moon 440 Document II-1 Document Title
440 Project Apollo: Americans to the Moon Document II-1 Document Title: NASA, “ Minutes of Meeting of Research Steering Committee on Manned Space Flight,” 25–26 May 1959. Source: Folder 18675, NASA Historical Reference Collection, History Division, NASA Headquarters, Washington, DC. Within less than a year after its creation, NASA began looking at follow-on programs to Project Mercury, the initial human spacefl ight effort. A Research Steering Committee on Manned Space Flight was created in spring 1959; it consisted of top-level representatives of all of the NASA fi eld centers and NASA Headquarters. Harry J. Goett from Ames, but soon to be head of the newly created Goddard Space Flight Center, was named chair of the committee. The fi rst meeting of the committee took place on 25 and 26 May 1959, in Washington. Those in attendance provided an overview of research and thinking related to human spacefl ight at various NASA centers, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), and the High Speed Flight Station (HSFS) at Edwards Air Force Base. George Low, then in charge of human spacefl ight at NASA Headquarters, argued for making a lunar landing NASA’s long-term goal. He was backed up by engineer and designer Maxime Faget of the Space Task Group of the Langley Research Center and Bruce Lundin of the Lewis Research Center. After further discussion at its June meeting, the Committee agreed on the lunar landing objective, and by the end of the year a lunar landing was incorporated into NASA’s 10-year plan as the long-range objective of the agency’s human spacefl ight program.

Principles for a Practical Moon Base T Brent Sherwood
Acta Astronautica 160 (2019) 116–124 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Acta Astronautica journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/actaastro Principles for a practical Moon base T Brent Sherwood Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, USA ABSTRACT NASA planning for the human space ﬂight frontier is coming into alignment with the goals of other planetary-capable national space agencies and independent commercial actors. US Space Policy Directive 1 made this shift explicit: “the United States will lead the return of humans to the Moon for long-term exploration and utilization”. The stage is now set for public and private American investment in a wide range of lunar activities. Assumptions about Moon base architectures and operations are likely to drive the invention of requirements that will in turn govern development of systems, commercial-services purchase agreements, and priorities for technology investment. Yet some fundamental architecture-shaping lessons already captured in the literature are not clearly being used as drivers, and remain absent from typical treatments of lunar base concepts. A prime example is general failure to recognize that most of the time (i.e., before and between intermittent human occupancy), a Moon base must be robotic: most of the activity, most of the time, must be implemented by robot agents rather than astronauts. This paper reviews key ﬁndings of a seminal robotic-base design-operations analysis commissioned by NASA in 1989. It discusses implications of these lessons for today's Moon Village and SPD-1 paradigms: exploration by multiple actors; public-private partnership development and operations; cislunar infrastructure; pro- duction-quantity exploitation of volatile resources near the poles to bootstrap further space activities; autonomy capability that was frontier in 1989 but now routine within terrestrial industry.

The Apollo 13 landing site is in the Fra Mauro uplands; the two National Aeronautics and Space Administration ppevious landings were in mare or ''sea" areas, Apollo 11 in the Sea of Tranqullfty and Apollo 12 in the Ocean of Storms. Apollo 13 crewmen are commander James A. Lovell, Jr.; command module pilot momas K. MBttingly 111, and lunar module pilot Fred W. Haise, Jr. Lovell is a U.S. Navy captain, Mattingly a Navy lieutenant commander, and Haise a civllian. -more- 3/26/70 Launch vehicle is a Saturn V. Apollo 13 objectives are: * Perform selenological inspection, survey and sampling of materials in a preselected region of the Fra Mauro formation, c Deploy and activate an Apollo Lunar Surface Experiment Package (ALSEP) , * Develop man's capability to work in the lunar environment. * Obtain photographs of candidate exploration sites.

From Apollo LM to Altair: Design, Environments, Infrastructure, Missions, and Operations
AIAA SPACE 2009 Conference & Exposition AIAA 2009-6404 14 - 17 September 2009, Pasadena, California From Apollo LM to Altair: Design, Environments, Infrastructure, Missions, and Operations Marc M. Cohen∗ Northrop Grumman Corporation, El Segundo, CA 90245 Abstract This essay presents a comparison between the Apollo Lunar Module (LM) and the current concepts and requirements for the Altair Lunar Lander. The basis of comparison reflects the difference between the Apollo Program, pursuing a Cold War era “Flag and Footsteps” mission, and the Constellation Program creating a more expansive program of exploration leading to a permanent human presence on the moon. The specific areas of comparison derive largely from the changes in mission philosophy and exploration strategy – not from technology or engineering. These factors illuminate the differences in the current design drivers for the Altair compared to the Apollo LM. Nomenclature ALARA As Low As Reasonably Achievable, refers to radiation exposure. ALHAT Autonomous Lander Hazard Avoidance Technology. Altair NASA’s Lunar Lander to return crew and cargo to the moon.

Going beyond Apollo 11, which demonstrated to an eager world that astronauts can set foot on a celestial body and return safely to Earth, Apollo 12 concentrated on a systematic scientific sampling designed to help unlock some of the secrets of the solar system's origin and early history. At Apollo 12's destination we had in the spring of 1967 landed Surveyor 3, a spiderlike mechanical creature with three legs, a clawlike arm, and a roving TV eye.

FINAL REPORT on DEVELOPMENT OF LUNAR ICE/HYDROGEN RECOVERY SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE NIAC-PHASE I CONTRACT NASA/NIAC Research Grant 07600-021 OTC-G083-FR-2000-1 Prepared for: NIAC Universities Space Research Association (USRA) 1 January 2000 by Dr. Eric E. Rice, NIAC Fellow Orbital Technologies Corporation Space Center, 1212 Fourier Drive Madison, Wisconsin 53717 608-827-5000 www.orbitec.com EMAIL: [email protected] FOREWORD This document represents the final report on the “Development of Lunar Ice Recovery System Architecture” a NIAC-Phase I study contract (research grant #07600-021) prepared for NASA and the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts (NIAC), managed by the Universities Space Research Association (USRA). A major output of the study is the recommended "Lunar H2/O Resource Use Program Plan". The plan that is presented here is considered a starting point for a NASA-funded program that would take full advantage of the lunar resource for the development of a manned base on the Moon. It represents what we believe to be, a well-thought out initial plan that will require continuous updates as work is conducted and new knowledge becomes available. This document is included as Attachment C to this final report. ORBITEC wishes to acknowledge the excellent communications and support from Dr. Robert Cassanova, NIAC Director. Dr. Eric E.

Grade 5 Mini-Assessment – “Looking for Lunar Ice”
Grade 5 Mini-Assessment – “Looking for Lunar Ice” Today you will read a passage about scientists’ search for water on the Moon. You will then answer several questions based on the text. I will be happy to answer questions about the directions, but I will not help you with the answers to any questions. You will notice as you answer the questions that some of the questions have two parts. You should answer Part A of the question before you answer Part B, but you may go back and change your answer to Part A if you want to. Take as long as you need to read and answer the questions. If you do not finish when class ends, come see me to discuss the ways you may have additional time. Now read the passage and answer the questions. I encourage you to write notes in the margin as you read the passage. Looking for Lunar Ice from Far-Out Guide to the Moon by Mary Kay Carson 1 Lunar rocks lost their water long ago. So the Moon is a totally dry world, right? Not necessarily. Remember that the Moon is covered in impact craters. Many of those impacting comets, asteroids, and meteoroids delivered some water ice to the Moon. The ice carried by space rocks scattered across the lunar surface upon impact. Sunlight quickly evaporated most of the ice. But scientists suspect that some of that water ice still survives on the Moon. 2 “The only way water can be preserved on the Moon…is in extremely cold areas,” explains lunar scientist Alan Binder.
