    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).

  • Map the Six Apollo Moon Landing Sites
    1 Based on: Earthrise – My Adventures as an Apollo 14 Astronaut By Edgar Mitchell, Chicago Review Press, 2014 Map the Apollo Moon Landing Sites Photo of the Moon from Apollo 11, Courtesy NASA There were six Apollo missions that landed astronauts on the Moon including: Apollo 11, Apollo 12, Apollo 14, Apollo 15, Apollo 16, and Apollo 17. Each Moon mission explored a different part of the Moon and had a specific landing site. Apollo 13 was heading to the Moon, but returned to Earth due to a spacecraft malfunction. For this activity, draw a picture of the Moon and indicate where each mission landed. Approximate age range: fifth to eighth grade Objective: To help young people learn about the Apollo missions. You’ll Need: * Computer with Internet access * Poster board (20 by 24 inches, 50.8 by 60.9 cm) * Pen or Pencil * Colored pencils * Markers 1. For overviews of Apollo missions 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17, check out: Apollo 11: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo11info.html Apollo 12: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo12info.html Apollo 14: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo14info.html Apollo 15: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo15info.html © 2016 Ellen Mahoney 2 Apollo 16: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo16info.html Apollo 17: http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/apollo17info.html 2.

    Harrison H. Schmitt RO. Box 8261 Albuquerque, NM 87198 (505) 293-1982 February 9, 1984 Russell L. Schweickart 892 La Sierra Drive Sacramento, CA 95825 Dear Rusty: Thank you for your letter of January 30, 1984, bringing me up-to-date on your efforts to form a "Planetary Congress of Space Explorers." ) Rusty, I see no way that you and I are going to agree on the ad- visability of an effort along the lines that you describe. I do not think I am alone among our colleagues in this regard. Therefore, at the least, you must keep at a minimum any appearance that this group, if formed, has an "Astronaut" sanction. However, my concern goes much deeper than the possibility that our apolitical stature as astronauts will be compromised by this or- ganization. In your letter, you say,"...our intent is not political." However, I see no way that that intent can be realized in the context of your proposal. In fact, in your proposed statement of purpose en- closed with your letter, you say in the last paragraph, "It is then the intention of this organization...to meet, confer, to speak and act from this unique experience." I see no way that a group of cosmo- nauts and astronauts "speaking" and "acting" will not be interpreted and used as political statements in less than the "largest and highest sense of that word." An initiative of this kind just does not seem appropriate in view of the continuing international arrogance of the Soviet Union and the largely military context in which their space program is conducted.

  • 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.

They’re printed on a small length of photographic paper and glued to cardboard which leans against the base of my desk lamp. Everyday I look at them. When I travel, they come with me. I placed this card in the showcase. Two small astronaut figurines are examining the three images. These photographs are at the heart of three exhibitions which make up Lunar Cycle : Les Diapasons of Eva Lm (2012) ; The Rotations of Solitude (2013) and now: Faraway, in the Night Sky, Earth Shines upon Herself. (2017). They pay homage to the astronauts of the Apollo missions 11-12-14-15-16 and 17 and to all those who walked on the Moon from 1969 to 1972. In the beginning, this exhibition was to be called : The rendez-vous, Re-entry : names of the two operations vital for the return of the astronauts to Earth. Rendez-vous : the lunar module and her two astronauts (The Diapasons of Eva Lm) leave the Moon to join the command module orbitting around the Moon where the third astronaut awaits them (The rotations of solitude).
