PDF-(EBOOK)-Building Moonships: The Grumman Lunar Module (Images of America)

In 1961 after the United States had acquired a total of fifteen minutes of spaceflight experience President John F Kennedy announced his plans for landing a man on the moon by 1970 The space race had begun In 1962 after a strenuous competition the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA announced that the Grumman Aircraft Engineering Corporation of Bethpage Long Island had won the contract to build the lunar modulethe spacecraft that would take Americans to the moon This was the first and the only vehicle designed to take humans from one world to anotherAlthough much has been written about the first men to set foot on the moon those first hesitant steps would not have been possible without the efforts of the designers and technicians assigned to Project Apollo Building Moonships The Grumman Lunar Module tells the story of the people who built and tested the lunar modules that were deployed on missions as well as the modules that never saw the light of day This is the first publication to chronicle the visual history of the design construction and launch of the lunar moduleone of the most historic machines in all of human history.
