Any comments, and does it say something about NASA and current space
access?
Has NASA lost its way in trying to be many things, but ... From its
early days as the I remember the Civilian Space .. what was it called,

One thing that could put this whole incident out of the spotlight
would be more space fatalities.  Perhaps a disaster will occur that
will put this whole thing out of public scrutiny.

Now it's in March:

A long, lamentable tale,
with perhaps the worst chapters
yet to be written.

Are you being stalked by a psychotic jealous astronaut in a trenchcoat, wig,

Does anyone have a picture of the Gemini with the Nose Sensor Shroud

On not making messes in space?  My dim understanding is that this
remains unsettled in the Liability Convention, due to an inability to
agree on a definition of the word "debris."  Any space lawyers out
there more up to date?

Here we go guys, I need a good accurate published resource, preferably a
book, about the Space program. I home school my son, and would like to have
a good text dealing with the start of the manned spaceflight program, and a
book detailing each of the elements ie Mecury, Gemini, ...

Looking to see if our PDF collectors may have something on Project
Manifold. I have the information from Gunters Page, (and the fuzzy
picture). I also have the picture of the MOL test liftoff. I want more
detail on upper section of the mock-up. I have the Titan IIIC,

Does anyone have a dim. drawing of the Boat-Tail Section of the Saturn
1 (SA-1 thru 3). Any othe drawings would be helpful too.
Thanks,
Carl
