    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).

  • The Overview Effect and the Ultraview Effect: How Extreme Experiences In/Of Outer Space Influence Religious Beliefs in Astronaut
    religions Article The Overview Effect and the Ultraview Effect: How Extreme Experiences in/of Outer Space Influence Religious Beliefs in Astronauts Deana L. Weibel Anthropology Department, Grand Valley State University, Allendale, MI 49401, USA; [email protected] Received: 30 June 2020; Accepted: 11 August 2020; Published: 13 August 2020 Abstract: This paper, based mainly on astronauts’ first-person writings, historical documents, and my own ethnographic interviews with nine astronauts conducted between 2004 and 2020, explores how encountering the earth and other celestial objects in ways never before experienced by human beings has influenced some astronauts’ cosmological understandings. Following the work of Timothy Morton, the earth and other heavenly bodies can be understood as “hyperobjects”, entities that are distributed across time and space in ways that make them difficult for human beings to accurately understand, but whose existence is becoming increasingly detectable to us. Astronauts in outer space are able to perceive celestial objects from vantages literally unavailable on earth, which has often (but not always) had a profound influence on their understandings of humanity, life, and the universe itself. Frank Wright’s term, the “overview effect”, describes a cognitive shift resulting from seeing the Earth from space that increases some astronauts’ sense of connection to humanity, God, or other powerful forces. Following NASA convention (NASA Style Guide, 2012), I will capitalize both Earth and Moon, but will leave all quotations in their original style. The “ultraview effect” is a term I introduce here to describe the parallel experience of viewing the Milky Way galaxy from the Moon’s orbit (a view described reverently by one respondent as a “something I was not ready for”) that can result in strong convictions about the prevalence of life in the universe or even unorthodox beliefs about the origins of humanity.

  • Moon Buggies and Bags of Poo: What Humans Left on the Moon
    Moon Buggies and bags of poo: what humans left on the moon After 50 years of exploration, the lunar junkyard holds nearly 200 tonnes of objects More than half a century of lunar exploration has left its mark on the moon. What Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin described as the “magnificent desolation” of the relentlessly grey surface is littered with clapped-out robots, spacecraft parts, moon buggies (including one with a bible on the dashboard) and technical equipment. Scattered around the Apollo landing sites are other items that were never meant to come home: a falcon’s feather, a javelin, bags of human waste, a family photo and an aluminium figure, the Fallen Astronaut, which lies on its side near a plaque bearing the names of 14 men who died in the pursuit of space exploration. In all, the lunar junkyard holds nearly 200 tonnes of human objects. The dusty remains of five Saturn V rocket stages from the Apollo missions are the heaviest single items. Then there are the wreckages of spacecraft that smashed, or were crashed intentionally at the end of their missions, into the lunar surface. There are a dozen 1960s Soviet Luna probes; nearly twice as many US Rangers, Lunar Orbiters, Surveyors and more recent observatories; at least four Japanese spacecraft, and other robots sent from Europe, China and India. In April, the mangled remains of the first private moon mission, Israel Aerospace Industries’ Beresheet probe, became the latest addition when the lander’s gyroscopes failed. More striking are those that met a more gentle end. Besides all the wreckages strewn across the moon are robotic landers and rovers that simply fell silent, their batteries spent or their hardware worn out.

  • The Apollo 8 Genesis Reading and Religion in the Space Age’
    Kendrick Oliver, ‘The Apollo 8 Genesis reading and religion in the space age’ ‘We are now approaching lunar sunrise and, for all the people back on earth, the crew of Apollo 8 has a message that we would like to send to you.’ And with that, the astronauts began to read the first ten verses of Genesis, the biblical account of God’s creation of the cosmos.1 The reading was broadcast live to an international audience of unprecedented size, and it was received for the most part with hosannas of public praise. There was only one notable dissent, from Madalyn Murray O’Hair, an atheist who had been one of the successful plaintiffs in the 1963 Supreme Court case which had resulted in a ban on organized prayer and bible reading in American public schools. As Apollo 8 made its return to the vicinity of earth, O’Hair told a Houston radio station that its astronauts, in reading from the Bible, had been ‘slandering other religions, slandering those persons who do not accept religion’. She announced an intention to start a mail campaign in protest against the reading of prayers and scriptures from space.2 In August 1969, after the flight of Apollo 11 and Buzz Aldrin’s celebration of communion on the moon, O’Hair filed a civil suit against NASA complaining that the actions of the Apollo 8 and 11 astronauts amounted to an establishment of religion. She sought a court order enjoining the agency from directing or permitting further religious activities in space.3 Reports of O’Hair’s intention to campaign against the Apollo 8 Genesis reading provoked a massive and sustained counter-mobilization, which received additional impetus with her filing of the suit in August, and which also endured well past the dismissal of the case in December 1969 and the final exhaustion of appellate options in March 1971.

  • Blast out the Brain Drain!!!
    BLAST OUT THE BRAIN DRAIN!!! Dear Parents, We are very excited to invite your future 3rd grade child to participate in our summer enrichment program! This is a wonderful opportunity to STOP the summer brain drain. It has been noted that students can lose 30-50% of their academic growth over the summer months. Over the course of three years, this can accumulate to a full year’s worth of knowledge and progress. We do not want this to happen. This packet includes details about our reading and math challenge and ideas on how to incorporate outdoor play into your summer. You will even find an event calendar displaying local events. There is also a copy of the Core Knowledge Sequence, which describes what your child will be learning next year. Please partner with us to promote and continue your child’s academic growth over the summer and encourage your student to turn in the last 2 sheets of this packet. Remember to write the student’s and teacher’s names. We are eager to see their summer triumphs. Table of Contents: Page 1……Aloha!
