  • "Saturn display set: instruction manual."

    The manual comprises a multi-volume set, the contents of which are as follows: VOLUME 1 -- a. Chapter 1 contains a general description of the equipment and its purpose, the physical and functional characteristics, and other pertinent data. b. Chapter 2 describes and illustrates the display set installation considerations. c. Chapter 3 lists and illustrates all operating controls and indicators. Chapter 3 also contains normal and emergency operating instructions.
  • "Saturn data summary handbook."

    This handbook provides a technical data summary for the Douglas-produced Saturn S-IV and S-IVB stages of the NASA Apollo Program. Material contained in the S-IVB stage of this handbook includes the S-IB and S-V vehicles. This book will be updated as changes and additional information become available. The appendix contains aerospace fluid characteristics, LOX and LH2 vapor pressure curves and a list of non-standard abbreviations.
  • "Saturn C-5, S-IC, stage fuel tank assembly."

    8 x 10 inch black and white diagram of a Saturn fuel-tank assembly cross-section.
  • "Saturn C-1 vehicle project development plan."

    The Saturn C-1 space vehicle system is being developed by government agencies at industrial firms under the direction of the National Aeronotics and Space Division
  • "Saturn base heating review."

    The Saturn I booster which is powered by a cluster of eight rocket engines has been successfully flown on four successive flights. The early success of this large launch vehicle is a strong indication of the soundness of its base heating program. This paper summarizes the thinking that went into the design of our base configuration. Flight test results indicate that pressures, temperatures and heating rates were generally as expected. New techniques have been investigated for generating design data. It has been found experimentally that pressure and thermal fields establish themselves in one to three milliseconds and that data from the "short duration" technique compare favorably with "long duration" type tests. As a result, the new "short duration" technique has become the standard for generating design data for the Saturn vehicle.
  • "Saturn ascending phase guidance and control techniques."

    Lunar Missions Meeting, July 17-19, 1962. Focuses on the guidence concept under development at the Marshall Space Flight Center
  • "Saturn Apollo guidance error estimation."

    A brief sketch of the development of the equations for a weighted least squares estimator is given, the equations for both collective and recursive estimators being included. Four possible problem sources that may be encountered in the application of the estimator are identified. Various "success" parameters are defined in an attempt to predict the success with which, the method has been applied. The application of the estimation technique to the problem of computing various error parameters associated with the ST-124M guidance platform is described with the numerical results obtained using a manufactured data case are presented. These results are used to form conclusions about the effectiveness of the "success" parameters and preferred approaches to the problem of system evaluation using techniques of estimation theory.
  • "Saturn Apollo applications program specification."

    This first issue contains only some general provisions for the program and its requirements for the Saturn 1B launch vehicle.

  • "Sat V growth and flexibility."

    This paper summarizes work conducted under a recent NASA study contract and Boeing studies on improved Saturn V vehicles and intermediate payload Saturn vehicles. The contractual study was a part of a continuing effort by NASA to identify a spectrum of practical launch vehicles to meet potential future payload and mission requirements as they become defined.; UAHuntsville's Saturn V finding aid has the title as: Saturn V Growth and Flexibility, by J.E. Martin.; Preferred Citation: [Identification of item] Saturn V Collection, Dept. of Archives/Special Collections, M. Louis Salmon Library, University of Alabama in Huntsville, Huntsville, AL.
