Dr. Wernher von Braun
Dr. Wernher von Braun became the director of MSFC when it
was created in 1960. As a field center of NAS A, the Marshall
C enter provides space launch vehicles and payloads, conducts
related research, and studies advanced space transportation
systems. Dr. von Braun was born in Wirsitz, Germany, on March
23, 1912. He was awarded a bachelor of science degree at the
age of 20 from the Berlin Institute of Technology. Two years
later, he received his doctorate in physics from the University
of Berlin.
He was technical director of Germany's rocket
program at Peenemunde. Dr. von Braun came to the U.S. in
1945, under a contract to the U.S. Army, along with 120 of his
Peenemunde colleagues. He directed high altitude firings of
V-2 rockets at White Sands Missile Range, N.M. and later
became the project director of the Army's Guided Missile
Development Unit in Fort Bliss. In 1950 he was transferred to
Redstone Arsenal, Alabama. The Redstone, the Jupiter and the
Pershing missile systems were developed by the 'von Braun
team. Current programs include the Saturn IB and the Saturn
V launch vehicles for Project Apollo, the nation's manned
lunar landing program and participation in the Apollo Appli
cations program.

Eleanor Newman Hutchens (October 9, 1919 to November 9, 2016) attended Agnes Scott College in Decatur, Georgia, majoring in English and Greek. After receiving her B.A. in 1940, she attended the University of Pennsylvania, acquiring an M.A. and Ph.D. in English literature (“Eleanor Hutchens - Obituary”).
Hutchens first held a part-time teaching position at the University of Alabama in Huntsville in 1955, then joined the faculty with a full-time position in 1957. She taught English, her specialties the English novel, literary criticism, and 18th century literature. Hutchens also chaired the steering committee “for its initial accreditation and the first committee for the selection of majors,” and served as the first elected president of the Faculty Senate. She moved to Agnes Scott College in 1961, remaining there until 1966. She eventually returned to UAH and remained a member of its English department until her retirement in 1979 (“Eleanor Hutchens - Obituary”).
Hutchens wrote prolifically over and after her career, publishing Irony in Tom Jones, Writing to Be Read, and “numerous articles in national and international journals” (“Eleanor Hutchens - Obituary”).
Hutchens was very active even outside of her academic career, serving as "president of the Huntsville Hotel Company, owner of the Russell [sic] Erskine Hotel, and as a director of the Huntsville Land Company, the West Huntsville Land Company, and the Mountain Heights Development Company.” She was "a founder and charter member of the board of Randolph School," a board member of the Huntsville Public Library and the Huntsville Symphony, and "an active member of the [Episcopalian] Church of Nativity.” Hutchens was also a member of "the Historic Huntsville Foundation, the Huntsville Historical Society, the Botanical Garden, the Burritt Museum of Art, the Huntsville Museum of Art, and the Friends of the Huntsville Public Library” (“Eleanor Hutchens - Obituary”).

■ IN AMERICA'S MANNED SPACE FLIGHT PROGRAM, NASA IS BUILDING
STEPS TO THE MOON
The spirit that compels men to reach for
uncrossed frontiers will take men from
earth to the moon in -Project Apollo.
This ambitious exploratio.n is part of
NASA's manned space flight program.
The lunar landing is a national goal, and
its achievement will reflect the nation's
vision and the strength of today's science
and technology.
Saturn launch vehicles developed by the
Marshall Space Flight Center will place
Apollo spacecraft into earth orbit for
testing and flight experience, and later on
will hurl them to the moon.
The Manned Spacecraft Center at Houston
selects and trains the astronauts. NASA's
Kennedy Space Center in Florida assem
bles the three-stage rocket and spacecraft
in the world's largest building, trundles
them upright to the launch pad three miles
away, and starts the three Apollo astro
nauts on their lunar journey.
The steps to the moon -- and return to
earth -- are shown in the photo sequence
on the next page.

Description
An account of the resource
<p>The Saturn V was a three-stage launch vehicle and the rocket that put man on the moon. (Detailed information about the Saturn V's three stages may be found<span> </span><a href="https://www.nasa.gov/centers/johnson/rocketpark/saturn_v_first_stage.html">here,<span> </span></a><a href="https://www.nasa.gov/centers/johnson/rocketpark/saturn_v_second_stage.html">here,<span> </span></a>and<span> </span><a href="https://www.nasa.gov/centers/johnson/rocketpark/saturn_v_third_stage.html">here.</a>) Wernher von Braun led the Saturn V team, serving as chief architect for the rocket.</p>
<p>Perhaps the Saturn V’s greatest claim to fame is the Apollo Program, specifically Apollo 11. Several manned and unmanned missions that tested the rocket preceded the Apollo 11 launch. Apollo 11 was the United States’ ultimate victory in the space race with the Soviet Union; the spacecraft successfully landed on the moon, and its crew members were the first men in history to set foot on Earth’s rocky satellite.</p>
<p>A Saturn V rocket also put Skylab into orbit in 1973. A total of 15 Saturn Vs were built, but only 13 of those were used.</p>
