This volume of the NASA Historical Data Book is the seventh in the series that describes NASA's programs and projects. Covering the years 1989 through 1998, it includes the areas of launch systems, human spaceflight, and space science, continuing the volumes that addressed these topics during NASA's previous decades. Each chapter presents information, much of it statistical, addressing funding, management, and details of programs and missions. This decade, which followed the Agency's return to flight after the Challenger accident, was especially productive. Upgraded expendable launch vehicles sent missions into Earth orbit and toward the outer reaches of space; 66 Space Shuttle missions were successfully launched; the Space Station received its first components; and 30 space science missions, most of which met their scientific goals, began returning scientific data to Earth. These events took place in an environment both of international cooperation and one in which NASA learned to make the best use possible of its resources. A forthcoming companion volume will describe NASA's Earth science missions; aeronautics and space research activities; tracking and space operations; facilities; resources; and personnel areas.

Excerpt from Nasa Historical Data Book, Vol. 7: Nasa Launch Systems, Space Transportation/Human Spaceflight, and Space Science 1989-1998 A large group of people assisted in preparing this volume and should be recognized. Most valuable and essential was my research assistant, Tai Edwards, who gathered material, organized it superbly, entered data into tables, and proofed and edited draft chapters, all while attending graduate school and getting married. It would have been impossible to deal with the quantity of information I faced without her help. The nasa History Division archivists, Colin Fries, John Hargenrader, Liz Suckow, and chief archivist Jane Odom, helped gather information. Stephen Garber managed the project and dealt with contractual matters. Interns Matt Barrow and Clare Kim also helped shepherd this project through the production cycle. Nadine Andreassen assisted in a myriad of ways. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

"As the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2008, historians as well as scientists and engineers could look back on a record of accomplishment. Much has been written about the evolution of NASA's multifaceted programs and the people who carried them out. Yet much remains to be done, and we hope this publication will facilitate research in this important field."--Page 1

These interviews capture refections from top decision-makers as the space agency was completing its first 50 years. Based on oral histories, the book offers insights from those responsible for moving NASA through a deep transition - from the end of the Space Shuttle Program, the centerpiece of human spaceflight for three decades, to the goals of the new policy known as the Vision for Space Exploration.

On 29 July 1958, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the National Aeronautics and Space Act, creating the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), which became operational on 1 October of that year. Over the next 50 years, NASA achieved a set of spectacular feats, ranging from advancing the well-established field of aeronautics to pioneering the new fields of Earth and space science and human spaceflight. In the midst of the geopolitical context of the Cold War, 12 Americans walked on the Moon, arriving in peace “for all mankind.” Humans saw their home planet from a new perspective, with unforgettable Apollo images of Earthrise and the “Blue Marble,” as well as the “pale blue dot” from the edge of the solar system. A flotilla of spacecraft has studied Earth, while other spacecraft have probed the depths of the solar system and the universe beyond. In the 1980s, the evolution of aeronautics gave us the first winged human spacecraft, the Space Shuttle, and the International Space Station stands as a symbol of human cooperation in space as well as a possible way station to the stars. With the Apollo fire and two Space Shuttle accidents, NASA has also seen the depths of tragedy. In this volume, a wide array of scholars turn a critical eye toward NASA’s first 50 years, probing an institution widely seen as the premier agency for exploration in the world, carrying on a long tradition of exploration by the United States and the human species in general. Fifty years after its founding, NASA finds itself at a crossroads that historical perspectives can only help to illuminate.

This book explores some of the contributions of psychology to yesterday's great space race, today's orbiter and International Space Station missions, and tomorrow's journeys beyond Erath's orbit. It provides an analysis of the challenges facing future space explorers while at the same time presenting new empirical research on topics ranging from simulation studies of commercial spaceflights to the psychological benefits of viewing Earth from space.

In 1973, NASA published the first volume of the NASA Historical Data Book, a hefty tome containing mostly tabular data on the resources of the space Agency between 1958 and 1968. There, broken into detailed tables, were facts and figures associated with the budget, facilities, procurement, installations, and personnel of NASA during that formative decade. In 1988, NASA reissued that first volume of the data book and added two additional volumes (one for 1958-1968 and one for 1969-1978) on the Agency's programs and projects. NASA published a fourth volume in 1994 that addressed NASA's resources for the period between 1969 and 1978. In 1999, it published volume V of the data book, which contained narrative and tabular information on the Agency's launch systems, space transportation, human spaceflight, and space science programs between 1979 and 1988. Volume VI, published in 2000, was a continuation of those earlier efforts and addressed the Agency's space applications efforts, the development and operation of aeronautics and space research and technology programs, tracking and data acquisition/space operations, commercial programs, facilities and installations, personnel, and finances and procurement during that era. Volume VII, published in 2008, addressed the decade from 1989 to 1998. It consisted of narrative and tabular material on the Agency's launch systems, space transportation, human spaceflight, and space science programs. This eighth volume continues those earlier efforts. This fundamental reference tool presents information, much of it statistical, documenting the development of several critical areas of NASA responsibility for the period between 1989 and 1998. This volume includes detailed information on NASA's Earth science/space applications efforts, the development and operation of aeronautics and space research and technology programs, tracking and data acquisition/space operations, facilities and installations, personnel, and finances and procurement during this era.
