  • USGS Open-File Report 2005-1190, Table 1
    TABLE 1 GEOLOGIC FIELD-TRAINING OF NASA ASTRONAUTS BETWEEN JANUARY 1963 AND NOVEMBER 1972 The following is a year-by-year listing of the astronaut geologic field training trips planned and led by personnel from the U.S. Geological Survey’s Branches of Astrogeology and Surface Planetary Exploration, in collaboration with the Geology Group at the Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas at the request of NASA between January 1963 and November 1972. Regional geologic experts from the U.S. Geological Survey and other governmental organizations and universities s also played vital roles in these exercises. [The early training (between 1963 and 1967) involved a rather large contingent of astronauts from NASA groups 1, 2, and 3. For another listing of the astronaut geologic training trips and exercises, including all attending and the general purposed of the exercise, the reader is referred to the following website containing a contribution by William Phinney (Phinney, book submitted to NASA/JSC; also http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ap-geotrips.pdf).] 1963 16-18 January 1963: Meteor Crater and San Francisco Volcanic Field near Flagstaff, Arizona (9 astronauts). Among the nine astronaut trainees in Flagstaff for that initial astronaut geologic training exercise was Neil Armstrong--who would become the first man to step foot on the Moon during the historic Apollo 11 mission in July 1969! The other astronauts present included Frank Borman (Apollo 8), Charles "Pete" Conrad (Apollo 12), James Lovell (Apollo 8 and the near-tragic Apollo 13), James McDivitt, Elliot See (killed later in a plane crash), Thomas Stafford (Apollo 10), Edward White (later killed in the tragic Apollo 1 fire at Cape Canaveral), and John Young (Apollo 16).

  • Letter from Fred
    10 – B We asked Fred Haise to write a News Monthly – April 2020 message for the people of Biloxi and the Mississippi Gulf Coast, about growing up in Biloxi, the fame he achieved and how he feels about the A love letter to Biloxi pending 50th anniversary of Apollo 13. We told him 400 words. We regret that. It’s a great read. Hometown hero recalls the simple life before he took off Growing up in Biloxi gave me a great start on my career ahead in the Marine Corps, as a NASA Test Pilot and Astronaut, and as an Aerospace Executive. Life was simple and safe with lots of friends. I ran to school at Gorenflo Elementary and either brought a brown bag or ran home for lunch. I was allowed to stay after school playing with friends until dusk, climbing trees or hunting for tadpoles in the drainage creek running through the south end of the school yard. I moved up to a bicycle in junior and high school and started work at 12 years old as a “paper boy” for the Biloxi Gulfport Daily Herald. I had Route 16, which covered from Main to Croesus Street and from Howard Avenue to the Beach Boulevard with about 170 customers. The newspaper owner, Mr. E.P. Wilkes, gave me my first lessons in responsibility for running my own little business with about 170 customers, to earn about $17 a week. Mr. Wilkes was also my Boy Scout leader and scouting provided a lot of those character traits that stood me well on Apollo 13.

  • Celebrate Apollo
    National Aeronautics and Space Administration Celebrate Apollo Exploring The Moon, Discovering Earth “…We go into space because whatever mankind must undertake, free men must fully share. … I believe that this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal before this decade is out, of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to Earth. No single space project in this period will be more exciting, or more impressive to mankind, or more important for the long-range exploration of space; and none will be so difficult or expensive to accomplish …” President John F. Kennedy May 25, 1961 Celebrate Apollo Exploring The Moon, Discovering Earth Less than five months into his new administration, on May 25, 1961, President John F. Kennedy, announced the dramatic and ambitious goal of sending an American safely to the moon before the end of the decade. Coming just three weeks after Mercury astronaut Alan Shepard became the first American in space, Kennedy’s bold challenge that historic spring day set the nation on a journey unparalleled in human history. Just eight years later, on July 20, 1969, Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong stepped out of the lunar module, taking “one small step” in the Sea of Tranquility, thus achieving “one giant leap for mankind,” and demonstrating to the world that the collective will of the nation was strong enough to overcome any obstacle. It was an achievement that would be repeated five other times between 1969 and 1972. By the time the Apollo 17 mission ended, 12 astronauts had explored the surface of the moon, and the collective contributions of hundreds of thousands of engineers, scientists, astronauts and employees of NASA served to inspire our nation and the world.

  • The Manuals That Saved Apollo 13
    The Manuals that Saved Apollo 13 How two rare historic Apollo mission manuals played their part in the rescue of Apollo 13 by Dr Michael Warner April 2020 On April 13th 1970, at 55 hours, 54 mins and 53 seconds ground elapsed time (GET), and 60,000 km from the moon, oxygen tank 2 on Apollo 13 exploded, forcing the crew to retreat from the command and services module Odyssey, to the relative safety of the docked lunar module Aquarius. The world watched and listened as astronauts Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert and Fred Haise executed frantic contingency procedures to power and navigate the stricken spaceship and sustain the vessel’s life support systems. Some of the emergency procedures were envisaged prior to the Apollo 13 mission. Others were adapted or devised anew by the hundreds of NASA scientists and engineers and thousands of private contractors who rushed to assist the plight of Apollo 13. The new procedures were tested in simulators at Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, and at the Johnson Space Center, Houston, then narrowed down to the most practicable option, and finally funnelled through to Mission Control be read up by the single point of voice communication between Earth and crew - the Capsule Communicator or ‘CapCom’. Role of the Apollo 13 LM Contingency Checklist A sizable portion of the history of ‘NASA’s finest hour’ is captured in a single rare document: the heavily-annotated Apollo 13 Lunar Module Contingency Checklist, used by CapCom Charlie Duke to read up to the crew rescue procedures during the crisis. The manual was part of Charlie Duke’s collection of NASA artefacts until it’s auction in 2010, and is signed with quotations by Apollo 13 astronauts Jim Lovell (Commander) and Fred Haise (Lunar Module Pilot), by Mission Control CapComs Jack Lousma, Vance Brand, Charlie Duke and Joe Kerwin, and by Jerry Bostic (Flight Dynamics Officer in charge of monitoring trajectories and spacecraft manoeuvres) (Fig 1).

The lucky first thousand fans at the JetHawks Aerospace Appreciation Night received a bobblehead of him, courtesy of the JetHawks and their sponsors. Everyone at Clear Channel Stadium in Lancaster saw Haise throw a ceremonial first pitch right down the strike zone. And the crowd was wowed by a flyover by Dryden pilot Troy Asher and videographer Lori Losey in one of the center’s F/A- 18s. For seventh grader Kevin Petersen, the event was a chance to meet one of his heroes. “It was amazing. It was like meeting a movie star, the president and a superhero all rolled into one,” Petersen said.

  • Interview Transcript
    ORAL HISTORY TRANSCRIPT EDGAR D. MITCHELL INTERVIEWED BY SHEREE SCARBOROUGH HOUSTON, TEXAS – 3 SEPTEMBER 1997 The following interview of Dr. Edgar Mitchell was conducted in Houston, Texas, on September 3, 1997, by Sherre Scarborough and assisted by Paul Rollins. SCARBOROUGH: Maybe we could start with your actual training to become an astronaut and what made you decide to go into that program. MITCHELL: I made the decision in 1957, when Sputnik went up. I was on a carrier in the Pacific, just about to come back to the States for some test pilot work, and when Sputnik went up I realized humans were going to be right behind it, so I started orienting my career toward that at that time. SCARBOROUGH: That's amazing, that you had that vision. MITCHELL: As it turned out, I came back to the States in 1958 when the first selection was starting, and as it turned out, I was still too junior and didn't have enough flight time or jet time. So I set my cap toward amassing qualifications that I thought would be attractive to NASA in 1957. It took nine years, but I got a doctorate, got additional flight experience, additional jet hours, was assigned to the Manned Orbiting Laboratory Program for a while, so, getting space management experience. All of that went on for nine years till I was selected in 1966. SCARBOROUGH: That shows quite a lot of dedication to stay on that plan. 3 September 1997 12-1 This document is made available through the declassification efforts and research of John Greenewald, Jr., creator of: The Black Vault The Black Vault is the largest online Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) document clearinghouse in the world.

  • Nasa Johnson Space Center Oral History Project Oral History 2 Transcript
    NASA JOHNSON SPACE CENTER ORAL HISTORY PROJECT ORAL HISTORY 2 TRANSCRIPT VANCE D. BRAND INTERVIEWED BY REBECCA WRIGHT HOUSTON, TEXAS – 12 APRIL 2002 WRIGHT: Today is April 12, 2002. This oral history is being conducted with Vance Brand in Houston, Texas, for the NASA Johnson Space Center Oral History Project. The interviewer is Rebecca Wright, assisted by Sandra Johnson. This session is part two of Mr. Brand’s oral history. The first part was conducted on July 25, 2000, and focused on his involvement with the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Today’s session reflects his efforts with the Shuttle Program, his additional roles during the Apollo era, and his current service for the nation as Deputy Director of Aerospace Projects at the Dryden Flight Research Center [Edwards, California]. We thank you, again, for taking time with us, and we would like to note that we are visiting on the twenty-first anniversary of the first STS [Space Transportation System] launch. So may we start by remembering that time and ask where were you during the first launch? BRAND: The first STS launch, I went over to Goddard [Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Maryland] to be sort of an astronaut rep [representative] during the launch and early part of the flight. They have a center there that handles the communications, the so-called Shuttle network. So worldwide communications were coming through there. WRIGHT: Your first flight for NASA was as the command module pilot for Apollo-Soyuz Test Project in July of 1975, which was also the final flight of the Apollo era.

  • “Okay, Houston, We've Had a Problem Here.” -Jack Swigert Apollo 13 Is
    “Okay, Houston, we’ve had a problem here.” -Jack Swigert Apollo 13 is currently 320,000 km from Earth. The crew has just reported hearing a “pretty large bang” and, looking out the window, they’re seeing the craft vent “a gas of some sort” into space. Oxygen tank 2 immediately reads a quantity of zero. …130 minutes later Oxygen tank 1 is now empty after stored O2 quantity gradually decreased. The command module now has no remaining oxygen. Minutes beforehand, the crew was ordered to enter the lunar module. This craft is attached to the command module. …3 minutes later The #1 and #3 fuel cells have now failed. Houston has ordered the crew to shut down the remaining fuel cells in order to conserve power for Earth re-entry. The mission to land astronauts Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise on the lunar surface has officially been aborted. The new mission is to return Apollo 13 to Earth before oxygen and energy supplies fail. …A few moments later Carbon dioxide levels are building up in the lunar module due to the astronauts breathing. The CO2 absorbers in the spacecraft, some of which remain in the command module, contain lithium hydroxide and are designed to capture CO2 from astronauts breathing at a normal rate. http://www.astronautix.com/a/apollocsm.html Student Instructions You are a NASA engineer and your superiors have instructed you to analyze the situation. The space craft consists of a command module and a lunar module. The command module is intended to house the three astronauts for most of the duration of the mission and enter lunar orbit, while the lunar module was designed only for the short trip from lunar orbit to the Moon’s surface and back to the command module.
