PDF-(EBOOK)-NASA Space Shuttle Manual: An Insight into the Design, Construction and Operation

Designed between 1969 and 1972 and first flown into space in 1981 the NASA Shuttle will have flown almost 140 missions by the time it is retired in 2010 David Baker describes the origin of the reusable launch vehicle concept during the 1960s its evolution into a viable flying machine in the early 1970s and its subsequent design engineering construction and operation The Shuttles internal layout and systems are explained including the operation of life support electrical power production cooling propulsion flight control communications land and avionics systems.

Designed between 1969 and 1972 and first flown into space in 1981, the NASA Shuttle will have flown almost 140 missions by the time it is retired in 2011. David Baker describes the origin of the reusable launch vehicle concept during the 1960s, its evolution into a viable flying machine in the early 1970s, and its subsequent design, engineering, construction, and operation. The Shuttle’s internal layout and systems are explained, including the operation of life support, electrical-power production, cooling, propulsion, flight control, communications, landing, and avionics systems. Chronicles all of the details of the space shuttle Columbia\'s first five flights. \"Written and curated by recognized historians of space exploration, The Space Shuttle: 40 Years is the authoritative photo history of the iconic space program on the occasion of its 40th anniversary. Officially known as the Space Transportation System (STS), the Space Shuttle program operated from 1981 to 2011. During that time, five Shuttle systems took part in 135 missions under the operation of NASA. This approach—namely reusable spacecraft—revolutionized space exploration. The Space Shuttle: 40 Years takes a thematic approach to the STS’s 30-year operational history. Essays by former NASA chief historian Roger Launius are accompanied by a collection of incredible Shuttle photography and artworks mined from the depths of NASA’s archives by aerospace historian Piers Bizony—all of it presented in large-format color. Readers will witness the pre-1981 evolution, the missions, astronauts, ground personnel and infrastructure, and amazing accomplishments of the Shuttle program and its spacecraft:
Columbia
,
Challenger
,
Discovery
,
Atlantis
, and
Endeavour
. From the launch site at Cape Kennedy, Florida, to mission control in Houston, Texas, to the landing site at Edwards Air Force Base, all aspects of Shuttle operation are covered, including key roles in efforts such as the Hubble Telescope and International Space Station, as well as the tragedies of Challenger and Columbia disasters. Every carefully chosen image in The Space Shuttle: 40 Years tells an aspect of the Shuttle story. The resulting book is not only a unique view of a key chapter of NASA history—it’s a compelling collection of stunning NASA photography and illustrations.\" \"Written and curated by recognized historians of space exploration, The Space Shuttle: 40 Years is the authoritative photo history of the iconic space program on the occasion of its 40th anniversary.
