  • Abstract the Transportation and Handling of Space Flight Hardware
    Abstract The transportation and handling of space flight hardware always demands the utmost care and planning. This was especially true when it came time to move the International Space Station lab module “Destiny” from its manufactiiring facility at the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) to the launch facility at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Good logistics management was the key to the coordination of the large team required to move the lab from the MSFC manufacturing facility 12 miles to the Huntsville International Airport. Overhead signs, power lines, and traffic lights had to be removed, law enforcement had to be coordinated and a major highway had to be completely shut down during the transportation phase of the move. The team responded well, and the move was accomplished on time with no major difficulties. Title International Space Station Laboratory “Destiny” Hardware Move From MSFC to KSC Introduction The transportation of large and costly space flight hard.ware presents unique challenges to a transportation team. This was particularly true during the handling and transportation of the International Space Station lab module “Destiny” from its manufacturing facility at the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) in Huntsville, Alabama to the launch facility at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. Because of the relatively heavy weight of the lab module, the Super Guppy aircraft used to take the module from MSFC to KSC was unable to use the relatively short runway at Redstone Arsenal where MSFC is located. Instead, the 10,000 ft runway at Huntsville International Airport was used, mandating a trip outside of the protective bounds of Redstone.

  • America's Space Program: Exploring a New Frontier, Students Will Appreciate the Cooperation That Was Needed to Send a Man to the Moon and Bring Him Safely Home
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior America’s Space Program: Exploring a New Frontier America’s Space Program: Exploring a New Frontier (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) They came by plane, boat, bus, and auto to Florida's Kennedy Space Center. Generals, members of Congress, governors, mayors, ambassadors, and celebrities filled the VIP grandstand. Journalists from 54 countries waited to send out the news. Several hundred thousand people had converged on the Kennedy Space Center on July 16, 1969, to view the launch of the Saturn V rocket that would propel Apollo 11 to the Moon. Millions of people all over the world kept their eyes on their television sets waiting for the countdown to begin. The engineers and technicians at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama trusted the Saturn rocket they had developed and tested, but may secretly have kept their fingers crossed. The men watching their computer screens at the Mission Control Center at the Manned Spacecraft Center (now the Johnson Space Center) in Texas seemed calm, but their hearts must have been beating a bit faster than normal. At two minutes before the launch, a reporter recorded that "idle conversation halted. Tedium evaporated. 'We have liftoff,' said Mission Control. People shouted 'Go! Go! Go!,' and whispered 'God bless you.' In another two minutes, there was nothing to see but the blue sky."¹ National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior America’s Space Program: Exploring a New Frontier Document Contents National Curriculum Standards About This Lesson Getting Started: Inquiry Question Setting the Stage: Historical Context Locating the Site: Map 1.

  • Section 4 HIGHWAY ELEMENT 4.0 Introduction the Plan Development
    Section 4 HIGHWAY ELEMENT 4.0 Introduction The plan development process involved building and testing alternate street plans until an acceptable plan evolved for adoption. This process basically followed three steps: 1. Alternate Plan Development or Modification; 2. Assignment of Year 2035 Traffic; and 3. Alternate Plan Evaluation Based on Future Traffic Assignment. This procedure was repeated for each alternate considered. The selected plan includes expansion of arterial and collector systems, upgrading some existing arterial highways to expressways, and constructing new freeways and expressways. 4.1 The Adopted Highway Plan The Huntsville Long-Range Highway Plan is shown on Map 4.1, and at Table 4.1 and Table 4.2. The maps are further divided into quadrants. Maps 4.1A, 4.1B, 4.1C, and 4.1D provide a closer snapshot of proposed road projects. All roads, interchanges, and maintenance & operations projects that are indicated on the map in red are visionary projects. This means that no funding has been identified for the projects. All roads, interchanges, and maintenance & operations projects that are indicated on the map in blue are classified as financially constrained projects, and funding has been identified for these projects. More information concerning the financial status of the projects can be found in Section 10. All projects have accommodations for bicycle and pedestrian facilities, except where noted in Table 4.1. Certain locations cannot accommodate pedestrians and/or bicycles because the corridor is a limited access or controlled access roadway, such as I-565, Memphis to Atlanta Highway, Southern Bypass, Research Park Boulevard, and the Weatherly Road Extension to the Southern Bypass.
