Apollo 12: Self-Portrait

Title	Apollo 12: Self-Portrait
Explanation	Is it art? In November of 1969, Apollo 12 [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap990408.html ] astronaut-photographer Charles "Pete" Conrad [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap990715.html ] recorded this masterpiece [ http://images.jsc.nasa.gov/images/pao/AS12/10075421.htm ] while documenting colleague Alan Bean's lunar soil collection activities on the Oceanus Procellarum [ http://volcano.und.nodak.edu/vwdocs/planet_volcano/ lunar/mare/mlm.html ]. The image is dramatic and stark [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap960420.html ]. Bean is faceless. The harsh environment of the Moon's Ocean of Storms is echoed in his helmet's perfectly composed reflection of Conrad and the lunar horizon [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/alsj/ ]. Works of photojournalists originally intent on recording the human condition on planet Earth, such as Lewis W. Hine's [ http://www.geh.org/fm/lwhprints/htmlsrc2/ index.html ] images from New York City in the early 20th century, or Margaret Bourke-White's [ http://lkwdpl.org/wihohio/bour-mar.htm ] magazine photography are widely regarded as art. Similarly many documentary astronomy and space images [ http://www.nasa.gov/cool.html ] can be appreciated for their artistic and esthetic appeal.

Title	Apollo 15: Driving on the Moon
Explanation	Apollo 15 [ http://ees5-www.lanl.gov/APOLLO/a15.summary.html ] astronaut James Irwin [ http://ees5-www.lanl.gov/APOLLO/a15.crew.html#irwinbio ] works on the first Lunar Roving Vehicle [ http://www.nasm.edu/APOLLO/AS15/LRV.html ], before he and fellow astronaut David Scott [ http://ees5-www.lanl.gov/APOLLO/a15.crew.html#scottbio ] take it out for a drive. Sloping up behind the lunar module [ http://www.nasm.edu/APOLLO/LMordered.html ]"Falcon" on the left are lunar mountains Hadley Delta [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap960222.html ] and Apennine Front, while about 5 kilometers behind Irwin is St. George Crater. The explorations conducted during the Apollo lunar missions discovered much about our Moon [ http://www.nasm.edu/APOLLO/LunarTop10.html ], including that the Moon is made of ancient rock, that the Moon's composition is similar to Earth's, that life is not evident there, that the Moon underwent a great hot melting in its distant past, that the Moon has suffered from numerous impacts as shown by its craters, and that the Moon's surface is covered by a layer of rock fragments and dust.

Apollo 11: Catching Some Sun

Title	Apollo 11: Catching Some Sun
Explanation	Bright sunlight [ http://www.clavius.org/index.html ] glints and long dark shadows dramatize [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap000224.html ] this image of the lunar surface [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a11/a11j.html ] taken by Apollo 11 astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first to walk on the Moon [ http://www.lpi.usra.edu/moon.html ]. Pictured is the mission's lunar module, the Eagle, and spacesuited lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin unfurling [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap020720.html ] a long sheet of foil also known as the Solar Wind Collector [ http://www.lpi.usra.edu/expmoon/Apollo11/ A11_Experiments_SWC.html ]. Exposed facing the Sun, the foil trapped atoms streaming outward in the solar wind, ultimately catching a sample of material from the Sun [ http://www.genesismission.org/science/module4_solarmax/ index.html ] itself. Along with moon rocks and lunar soil samples, the solar wind collector was returned for analysis in earthbound laboratories [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/pao/History/SP-4214/ ch9-6.html ].

Lunar Prospector in Clean Ro …

Title	Lunar Prospector in Clean Room
Full Description	The fully assembled Lunar Prospector spacecraft is shown mated atop the Star 37 Trans Lunar Injection module. Lunar Prospector represented the first NASA spacecraft to revisit the Moon in 25 years. In December of 1972 Apollo 17 astronauts Gene Cernan and Harrison Schmitt were the last humans to set foot upon the Moon and the last NASA mission to visit the lunar frontier. On January 6, 1998 at 9:28 p.m., Lunar Prospector was launched from Cape Canaveral, Florida aboard a Lockheed Martin Athena II rocket. Also onboard were the ash remains of astrogeologist Eugene M. Shoemaker. A scientist from the U.S. Geological Survey, he was detailed to NASA and helped train Apollo astronauts in lunar geology. However, as co- founder of a "rogue string" of comet fragments, his name will forever be linked to the much hearlded Shoemaker-Levy 9 cometary impact of the planet Jupiter in 1995. Lunar Prospector mapped the Moon's elemental composition, gravity fields, magnetic fields and resources. Prospector provided insights into the origin and evolution of the Moon. One of the most significant finds by Lunar Prospector was confirmation that there could be as much as 10 billion tons of subsurface frozen water near the Moon's polar region. The Lunar Prospector mission came to a creative and daring conclusion when on July 31, 1999 at 2:52:00.8 a.m. PDT Mission Control Ames directed the spacecraft to a crash landing into a deep crater near the Moon's South pole. The hope was that the impact might release trapped water vapor. However no visible debris plume was detected by numerous observatories monitoring the event. This lack of direct evidence has not diminished the hope or belief that subsurface frozen water does exist.

Title	ERC Technician Test Device Developed for Apollo Missions
Full Description	Technician test a device that was flown on the Apollo missions to measure cabin particles The ERC opened in September 1964, taking over the administration of contracts, grants, and other NASA business in New England from the antecedent North Eastern Operations Office (created in July 1962), and closed in June 1970. It served to develop the space agencys in-house expertise in electronics during the Apollo era. A second key function was to serve as a graduate and post- graduate training center within the framework of a regional government-industry-university alliance. Research at the ERC was conducted in ten different laboratories: space guidance, systems, computers, instrumentation research, space optics, power conditioning and distribution, microwave radiation, electronics components, qualifications and standards, and control and information systems. Researchers investigated such areas as microwave and laser communications, the miniaturization and radiation resistance of electronic components, guidance and control systems, photovoltaic energy conversion, information display devices, instrumentation, and computers and data processing. Although the only NASA Center ever closed, the ERC actually grew while NASA eliminated major programs and cut staff in other areas. Between 1967 and 1970, NASA cut permanent civil service workers at all Centers with one exception, the ERC, whose personnel grew annually until its closure in June 1970.

Apollo 17's Moonship

Title	Apollo 17's Moonship
Explanation	Awkward and angular looking, Apollo 17's lunar module Challenger [ http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/tmp/1972-096C.html ] was designed for flight in the vacuum of space. This picture from command module America [ http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/nmc/tmp/1972-096A.html ], shows Challenger's ascent stage in lunar orbit. Small reaction control thrusters are at the sides of the moonship [ http://users.specdata.com/home/pullo/lm_mis1.htm ] with the bell of the ascent rocket engine underneath. The hatch allowing access to the lunar surface [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a17/a17main.html ] is seen at the front, with a round radar antenna at the top. Mission commander Gene Cernan is just visible through the dark, triangular window. This spaceship performed gracefully, landing on the Moon and returning the Apollo astronauts to the orbiting command module in December of 1972. So where is Challenger now? [ http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/planetary/lunar/ apolloloc.html ] Its descent stage remains [ http://www.boulder.swri.edu/~durda/Apollo/ ls_17_5aa.html ] at the Apollo 17 landing site [ http://www.boulder.swri.edu/~durda/Apollo/ landing_sites.html ], Taurus-Littrow. The ascent stage was intentionally crashed nearby after being jettisoned from the command module prior to the astronauts' return [ http://www.hq.nasa.gov/alsj/a17/a17.homeward.html ] to planet Earth. Apollo 17's mission [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap051210.html ] was the sixth and last time astronauts have landed on the Moon.

Skylab

Name of Image	Skylab
Date of Image	1974-01-01
Full Description	This image is an artist's concept of the Skylab in orbit with callouts of its major components. In an early effort to extend the use of Apollo for further applications, NASA established the Apollo Applications Program (AAP) in August of 1965. The AAP was to include long duration Earth orbital missions during which astronauts would carry out scientific, technological, and engineering experiments in space by utilizing modified Saturn launch vehicles and the Apollo spacecraft. Established in 1970, the Skylab Program was the forerurner of the AAP. The goals of the Skylab were to enrich our scientific knowledge of the Earth, the Sun, the stars, and cosmic space, to study the effects of weightlessness on living organisms, including man, to study the effects of the processing and manufacturing of materials utilizing the absence of gravity, and to conduct Earth resource observations. The Skylab also conducted 19 selected experiments submitted by high school students. Skylab's 3 different 3-man crews spent up to 84 days in Earth orbit. The Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) had responsibility for developing and integrating most of the major components of the Skylab: the Orbital Workshop (OWS), Airlock Module (AM), Multiple Docking Adapter (MDA), Apollo Telescope Mount (ATM), Payload Shroud (PS), and most of the experiments. MSFC was also responsible for providing the Saturn IB launch vehicles for three Apollo spacecraft and crews and a Saturn V launch vehicle for the Skylab.
