"The Space Shuttle was a partially reusable human spaceflight vehicle capable of reaching low Earth orbit, commissioned and operated by the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from 1981 to 2011. It resulted from shuttle design studies conducted by NASA and the US Air Force in the 1960s and was first proposed for development as part of an ambitious second-generation Space Transportation System (STS) of space vehicles to follow the Apollo program in a September 1969 report of a Space Task Group headed by Vice President Spiro Agnew to President Richard Nixon. Nixon's post-Apollo NASA budgeting withdrew support of all system components except the Shuttle, to which NASA applied the STS name. The vehicle consisted of a spaceplane for orbit and re-entry, fueled by expendable liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen tanks, with reusable strap-on solid booster rockets. The first of four orbital test flights occurred in 1981, leading to operational flights beginning in 1982, all launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. The system was retired from service in 2011 after 135 missions, with Atlantis making the final launch of the three-decade Shuttle program on July 8, 2011.".…

Trade paperback. Condizione: Very good. Presumed First Edition, First printing. The format is approximately 8.625 inches by 11 inches. 72 pages. Illustrated covers. Illustrations (some in color). Technical Data. The core of each book comprises a very comprehensive design and development history of the aircraft, covering each and every variant and sub-variant. Further chapters look at the structure and equipment of the aircraft in detail, a comparison with rival aircraft designs and a brief look at the type in operational service. Each book includes numerous b+w and/or color photographs, line drawings, detailed sketches and sometimes color artwork as well. Aerofax Inc.'s Datagraph format was one of three aircraft monographic history series produced by the company to meet the needs of the aviation enthusiast. These works were created to accommodate aircraft histories and related subject areas were were either too large for the smaller minigraph series or too small for the larger, definitive Aerograph series. Each work reference have been created for the enthusiast and profession and was designed to provide unparalleled textual and pictorial detail not usually found in other works. Each Datagraph contains over 200 photographs multi-view drawings, color scheme information, systems drawing and related reference materials. Dennis R. Jenkins worked as a contractor to NASA for 33 years, mostly on the Space Shuttle Program in engineering and management roles. Jenkins spent 2003 on the staff of the Columbia Accident Investigation Board (CAIB), 2004 as staff to the President's Commission on the Future of Human Spaceflight and as technical staff to the Return-to-Flight Task Group. The Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is an American long-range, subsonic, jet-powered strategic bomber. The B-52 was designed and built by Boeing, which has continued to provide support and upgrades. It has been operated by the United States Air Force (USAF) since the 1950s, and NASA for over 40 years. The bomber can carry up to 70,000 pounds of weapons, and has a typical combat range of around 8,800 miles without aerial refueling. Beginning with the successful contract bid in June 1946, the B-52 design evolved from a straight wing aircraft powered by six turboprop engines to the final prototype YB-52 with eight turbojet engines and swept wings. The B-52 took its maiden flight in April 1952. The B-52 has been in service with the USAF since 1955, and NASA from 1959 to 2007. Superior performance at high subsonic speeds and relatively low operating costs have kept them in service despite more advanced strategic bombers. The B-52 has dropped only conventional munitions in combat. The B-52's official name Stratofortress is rarely used; informally, the aircraft has become commonly referred to as the BUFF (Big Ugly Fat Fella). There are 72 aircraft in inventory as of 2022; 58 operated by active forces (2nd Bomb Wing and 5th Bomb Wing), 18 by reserve forces (307th Bomb Wing), and about 12 in long-term storage at the Davis-Monthan AFB Boneyard. The bombers flew under the Strategic Air Command (SAC) until it was disestablished in 1992 and its aircraft absorbed into the Air Combat Command (ACC); in 2010, all B-52 Stratofortresses were transferred from the ACC to the new Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC). The B-52 completed 60 years of continuous service with its original operator in 2015. After being upgraded between 2013 and 2015, the last airplanes are expected to serve into the 2050s. The B-52G was proposed to extend the B-52's service life during delays in the B-58 Hustler program. At first, a radical redesign was envisioned with a completely new wing and Pratt & Whitney J75 engines. This was rejected to avoid slowdowns in production, although a large number of changes were implemented. The most significant of these was a new "wet" wing with integral fuel tanks, increasing gross aircraft weight by 38,000 pounds. In addition, a pair of 700 US gallon external fuel tanks were fitted under the wings on wet hardpoints. The traditional ailerons were als.…
