With the 1970 lunar touchdown already in its sights,
NASA's Office of Manned Space Flight seeks to make
the United States pre-eminent in space.
A Nation Goes to
/r&(/iS
".Note/ is the kime to take longer strides-time for a p e a t new
American enterprise-tirrle,fir this nation to take a clearly leading
role in space achieuernent a~hichin many zoaj)s may hold the key
to our,future on earth. I belieup thal this nation should comrnit
itself to achieving the goal, befire lhis decade is out, of landing a
man on the moon and returning him safely to earth. . . . It will not
be one man going to the moon . . . it will be an entire nation."
-President John F. Kennedy
ive years ago the United States
took its first tiny steps toward
the moon when Commander
Alan Shepard became the first American to be rocketed into space. And
the entire nation-indeed the whole
world-witnessed his flight, sharing
in the tension and the triumph. Today, at the halfway point in the tenyear program to land a man on the
moon and return him to earth safely,
the United States manned space program has both lengthened and quickened its stride. And the distance from
the earth to the moon doesn't seem
quite that far anymore.
In developing the elements and
capabilities for this decade's manned
lunar landing, NASA has marshalled
F

I
the men and machines that will make
it possible to undertake a wide range
of space missions beyond the initial
moon touchdown. Indeed, as Dr.
George Mueller comments, "manned
lunar flight serves as the focal-point
of a program whose principal goal is
to give the United States world leadership in all elements of space activity. The Gemini and Apollo-Saturn
programs are equipping this nation
with the ability to carry men and instruments into hitherto inaccessible
regions of space for hitherto unachievable periods of time."
Dr. George E. Mueller
Associate Administrator
Office of Manned Space Flight
��Dr. Mueller, Associate Administrator for NASA's Office of Manned
Space Flight, bases his appraisal on
the remarkable progress that has been
made in the tri-lateral manned flight
program-Projects Mercury, Gemini
and Apollo. Together the three constitute the greatest single engineering
enterprise in this nation's history. The
manned space flight program is carried out by some 300,000 men and
women. They work in NASA'sWashington, D.C. office, at three field centers-the John F. Kennedy Space
Center in Florida; the Manned Spacecraft Center near Houston, Texas, and
the George C. Marshall Space Flight
Center at Huntsville, Alabama-and
a t some 20,000 industrial plants in
every part of the country. Dr. Mueller
directs this competent crew by means
of a geographically dispersed program
office structure which penetrates directly through the functional organizations of the field centers and the
prime contractors, to the subcontractors and the vendors. It has been
said that Dr. Mueller's techniques of
managing so vast a research and development program may, in the long
run, prove to be one of the most valuable assets derived from the program.
The first phase of the tri-lateral
manned space flight program, Project
Mercury, set the stage for the sophisticated space maneuvers of today and
tomorrow. Using experimental oneman vehicles, Project Mercury put the
first Americans into space and laid a
solid foundation for the technology of
future manned space flights. It demonstrated the effects of space on man,
and proved that men could increase
the reliability of spacecraft controls.
NASA logged its first manned space
flight success on May 5,1961, the day
Astronaut Shepard rode his Freedom
7 space capsule on a 19-minute suborbital mission, 116 miles high into
space. Another Mercury milestone
was achieved the following February.
Astronaut John Glenn became the
first American in orbit, completing
three global circuits. The following
spring Gordon Cooper completed a
22-orbit mission of 34 and one-half
hours, triumphantly ringing down the
�curtain on Project Mercury.
Dr. Mueller was a witness to, rather
than a participant in, NASA's
manned
flight program at the time of the
Mercury space spectaculars, although
he was deeply involved in other aspects
of aerospace technology. During the
five years before he joined NASA in
1963, he was associated with Space
Technology Laboratories, Inc., serving successively as director of the
electronics labs, program director of
the "Able" space program, vice president of space systems management,
and finally vice president for research
and development. I n this last position, he had overall responsibility for
the technical operations of the company. While at STL, Dr. Mueller
headed the design, development and
testing efforts of the systems and components for Atlas, Titan, Minuteman
and Thor ballistic missiles. He also
played a major role in the development of Pioneer I, the United States'
first successful space probe, and had
overall responsibility for several other
space projects, including Explorer VI
and Pioneer v, and for the establishment of the Air Force satellite track- Gemini Twin Ed White maneuvers 120 miles above the Pacific Ocean, connected to Gemini
4 spacecraft by an umbilical cord. Extravehicular activity, operational term for walking
ing network.
in space, is a basic technique required for manned space flight capability.
Mercury's Dividends
Dr. Mueller adds thisfootnote to the story on the path to the moon, and forged
Mercury which had j u t con- ahead with the second phase, Project

Named for the twin-star constellatratorfor the Ofice of Manned Space Flight:
"Originally, NASA assigned only two broad tion of Castor and Pollux, Project
Gemini called for a two-man spacemission objectives to Project Mercury-jrst,

Dr. Mueller and his capable
tion programs."
Small wonder, then, that NASA was manned space flight crew are justifiencouraged by this successful first step ably proud of the stand-out achieve-
of Project
ments of the Gemini program and the
early successes of Apollo-Saturnachievements which can only be described as spectacular in light of the
stepped-up pace of the United States
manned space flight schedule. In the
spring of 1964 the first unmanned test
flight of the Gemini-Titan 11 space
vehicle was flown. By spring of this
year Gemini astronauts had logged
more than 1,300 man-hours in space,
and traveled some 11 million milesthat's almost fifty times the distance
from the earth to the moon.
Other mission objectives have been
fulfilled. Last year, during the third
revolution of an extended earth orbital
flight, Gemini 4 Astronauts James
McDivitt and Ed White carried out
the first extravehicular activity in the
manned space flight program. White
left the spacecraft to walk in space,
becoming a human satellite orbiting
the earth at an altitude of 120 miles.
Command pilot McDivitt remained
�Mueller, is that in every case, the men returned in excellent physical and mental
health. From the medical point of view the
jights show that well-trained men can live
and work in space for extended periods of
time, and the condition of weightlessness
does not appear to cause any serious afterefects. 7 h e astronauts' state of health is
measured continuously, bbefoejight, during
j i g h t and after their return. The overall
appraisal of NASA'smedical team is that
jights lasting a month or more are feasible.

Talented Management
Another noteworthy aspect of the
Gemini program is the talented management Dr. Mueller gives it. A little
more than a year ago, the program
was behind sdhedule, and there
was.. ...
"rave
concern about the possibility of
cost overruns. "We instituted a new
kind of contract administration," Dr.
Mueller remarked, "one in which the
profit of the Gemini program contractors is ,tied to their total perform-

a t the controls with the difficult task
of keeping the spacecraft in a stable
attitude so that White would have a
constant and dependable point of reference to gauge his movements outside the capsule.
Orbital rendezvous was another
mission objective. Dr. Mueller recalled
the events which led to its achievement: "Within hours after Tom Love11
and Ed Borman took off on their twoweek Gemini 7 flight, preparations
began for launching their rendezvous
ship. Gemini 6 lifted off eleven days
later, with Wally Schirra and Tom
Stafford aboard. For five hours
Schirra a n d Stafford carried out a
complicated series of maneuvers.
Then, 185 miles above the Pacific,
they rendezvoused with Gemini 7.
Despite their speeds of 17,000 mile
a n hour, Schirra was able to guide his
spacecraft to within one foot of the
other. I might add that he was aided
by some very fine guidance and con-
trol equipment." Docking in space
was added to the plus side of the mission objective ledger in March of this
year after Astronauts Neil Armstrong
and David Scott docked their Gemini
8 spacecraft with an unmanned Agena
target vehicle.
Among the most remarkable
Gemini space successes was the Gemini
10 flight in late July. During that
record-setting three days, astronauts
Michael Collins and John Young
chased and linked up with a fuel supply Agena rocket and spent nearly 39
hours linked with the other statellite;
fired the rocket engine of the captured
Agena for the first manned launching
at orbital altitudes; soared to an orbit
of nearly 475 miles-deeper

space than man has ever gone; opened
the hatch of their capsule to the space
environment three times; maneuvered
near the orbiting Agena 8 rocket and
retrieved a package from it, and accomplished a 25-minute space walk.
trol. I think the operation of these
contracts has constituted one of the
finest examples of the proper working
of the free enterprise system."
The manned space flight program
has a valuable asset in the person of
George Mueller (pronounced Miller).
The "Show Me" state native received
a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering from the Missouri School of
Mines, then moved to Indiana to earn
a master's in the same discipline at
Purdue University. H e came east to
the Bell Telephone Laboratories
where he conducted television and
microwave and measuring experiments, and pioneered in the measurement of radio energy from the sun, in
microwave propogation, and in the
design
- of low field electrons. After a
stint of graduate study a t Princeton
University, George Mueller joined the
faculty of Ohio State University as
assistant professor of electrical engineering; later he bacame a full professor. At Ohio State, he conducted
research on the study and design of
broadcast and dielectric antennas,
cathode emission, low field magne-
�trons and traveling wave tubes, and
was awarded a P H . D in physics. The
next stop was Redondo Beach, California and the Space Technology
Laboratories where Dr. Mueller spent
the next five years before he assumed
direction of NASA'smanned space
flight program.
Dr. Mueller was one of the originaLurs of the concept and design of the
Telebit digital telemetry system. He
holds seven patents in electrical engineering, and is the author of more
than 20 technical papers. With E. R.
Spangler, he is co-author of a book,
"Communication Satellites." Dr.
Mueller is a n active participant in
national and international conferences
on space communications and space
technology.
Successful Stepping Stones
Uprated Saturn I on Cape Kennedy launch pad just before it successfully boosted unmanned Apollo spacecraft into a 300-mile high suborbital flight. The February 26, 1966
flight marked the first test in space of the Apollo command and service module, the CKIH
which will house America's moon explorers.

Project Apollo calls for NASA to develop two major launch vehicles and
a three-man spacecraft; to assemble a
nation-wide government-industry
team; to construct a complex of advanced launch facilities, and to carry
on a comprehensive testing program
. . . all on a coordinated schedule.
Under George Mueller's direction,
they're doing just that.
America's moon men will make
the half-million-mile round trip in the
three-man Apollo spacecraft now
under development at NASA's
Manned
Spacecraft Center (MSC)
near Houston,
Texas, where a cattle range was converted to a modern installation in less
than three years. Dr. Robert Rowe
Gilruth directs MSC,an organization
responsible for the design, development and testing of manned spacecraft and associated systems, for the
selection and training of astronauts,
�for support.of manned flight operations and for managing the work of
the industrial team which shares the
work load.
The MSC Giant
Probably the biggest thing at MSG
these days is the Apollo spacecraft.
Weighing in at 45 tons and standing
84 feet tall, the spacecraft is divided
into three sections-a command module, a service module and a lunar
module. T h e command module,
something like the crew compartment
of a commercial jet airliner, is designed so that the astronauts can eat,
sleep and work and relax in a shirt
sleeve environment. It is furnished
with life support equipment and is
chock full of controls and instruments
to enable the astronauts to maneuver
their craft. Since the command module will return to earth, it is constructed to withstand the tremendous
deceleration forces and intense heating caused by re-entry. It's a room
with a view. The double-walled pressurized chamber has three windows
in front of the astronauts' couch, and
two more windows on the side. A
tower-like launch escape system
perches atop the command module
for use in an emergency launch situation. It is jettisoned after the second
stage of the launch vehicle ignites.
Beneath the command compartment is the service module, a 128foot diameter cylinder weighing
about 50,000 pounds. Inside are supplies, fuel and an engine which the
astronauts use to maneuver their craft
into and out of lunar orbit or alter
their course and speed in space.
Once the Apollo spacecraft is orbiting around the moon, two of the
astronauts crawl through a hatch into
the bug-like third section, the lunar
module. "The bug" detaches from the
combined command-service module
and descends to the moon's surface.
The lunar module has its own complete guidance, propulsion, computer,
communications and environmental
control systems. The vehicle has two
stages. The bottom stage contains the
rocket engine and spidery legs which
extend for lunar landing. This unit is
detachable and forms the "launch
platform" for the upper stage which
houses the astronauts. Attached to the
upper stage is the rocket engine which
America's lunar explorers will ignite
when they are ready to rejoin the
hovering command-service module.
After the astronauts crawl back into
the command module, the lunar
module is jettisoned and the trio heads
back to earth. Just before re-entry,
the service module is also detached.
Parachutes are deployed to slow down
the re-entry forces just before splashdown.
The Manned Spacecraft Center is
an outstanding example of the advanced facilities, unique in both size
and capability, which NASA has constructed to meet Apollo program
objectives. MSC is the home of the
Mission Control Center-an office/
laboratory combination where engineers, scientists and technicians team
up with computers to direct operations
of manned space flights. Support functions at the Center include recovery
control, recovery communications,
meteorology and trajectory data, network support and monitoring devices
for life support and vehicle systems.
MSC is also the site of the country's
largest "man-rated" space environment chamber. Altitudes of about 80
miles can be simulated in this chamber and spacecraft can be subjected
to temperatures and solar radiation
conditions that will be experienced
on a flight to the moon.
Muscle for Apollo
The muscle for the Apollo program
is provided by the Saturn family of
heavy launch vehicles. Development
of these mammoth boosters is the responsibility of Dr. Werner von Braun,
director of NASA'sGeorge C. Marshall
Space Flight Center (MSFC)
at Huntsville, Alabama. Some 7,000 MSFC employees are engaged in the research
and development of the Saturn workhorses-from conception through design, development, fabrication and
assembly of the hardware, and testing.
Baby of the Saturn family is the
120-foot tall, 2 1.5-foot diameter Saturn I. It has been flight tested with a
perfect record of ten successes in ten
launches, a record without parallel in
the development and operation of
large launch vehicles. In unmanned
test flights Saturn I has placed test
versions of the command and service
modules of the Apollo spacecraft into
orbit. With its cluster of eight rocket
engines burning refined kerosene and
liquid oxygen, Saturn I develops 1.5
million pounds of thrust in its first
stage. Its second stage has six engines
which burn liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen, producing 90,000 pounds
total thrust.
Also under development at MSFC is
the uprated Saturn I with an improved
first stage version of the Saturn I, and
a new and more powerful second
stage. With 1.6 million pounds booster
thrust, and 200,000 pounds second
stage thrust, the uprated Saturn I will
boost Astronauts Virgil Grissom, Ed
White and Roger Chaffee into earth
orbit for a long duration mission of
up to two weeks.
Saturn V Moon Rocket
Big Daddy in the Texas-size booster
corral is the Saturn v, a vehicle of
gigantic size and power. The Saturn v
moon rocket tops the 250-foot high
Statue of Liberty by 31 feet. Assembled on the launch pad with the three
modules of the Apollo spacecraft on
top, the moon rocket stands 364 feet
tall and weighs about six million
pounds. Its first stage has a diameter
of 33 feet, and is powered by a cluster
of five engines packing a wallop of 7.5
million pounds of thrust. Another million pounds of thrust will be furnished
by a cluster of five engines in the second stage. On top of the first two is
the third stage which is identical to
the uprated Saturn r second stage.
The Saturn's first stages are built
by NASA's
Michoud Assembly Facility
in New Orleans, Louisiana, and later
are floated by barge into Mississippi
for rumbling static tests at NASA's
Mississippi Test Facility. The second
and third stages of Saturn v are built
in California. At Mississippi the gigantic stages are lifted directly from
the barges onto the test stands, held
captive and run through full strength,
full duration "hot" firings. After testing, the rocket stages are replaced on
the barges and floated via a complex
�canal system to Cape Kennedy.
Other flight equipment, manufactured and tested at NASA's
nation-wide
facilities, are also shipped to the John
F. Kennedy Space Center (KSC)in
Florida, where an integrated governmenthndustry team takes over assembly, checkout and launch of the
moon-bound space ships under the
direction of Dr. Kurt Debus. KSC, the
major launch organization for manned
and unmanned space missions, is the
focal point for the development of
launch philosophy, procedures, technology and facilities. So huge and so
complicated are the Apollo-Saturn
launch vehicles that NASA had to devise
new approaches to assembling them.
Thus a new generation of space
facilities was born. Towering over the
Kennedy Space Center terrain is the
VAB (vehicle assembly building), a
524-foot high plant where four Saturn
rockets can be assembled simultaneously and checked out stage by stage.
Scheduled for completion this year,
the VAB provides for assembly and
checkout of the moon rockets in a con-
trolled environment which eliminates
the hazards weather could wreak on
rockets and time schedules.
After assembly, the Saturn v rocket,
its mobile launch tower and mobile
platform leave the VAB through a
doorway 456 feet high. A monstrous
tractor trundles the works to the
launch pad. The Kennedy moonport
will have two Saturn v launch pads,
with the capability of launching about
six vehicles a year after 1968.
The pieces in this massive jigsaw
puzzle called manned space flight are
falling into place. Excellent progress
is being made on the development of
the Saturn launch vehicle; hardware
is being assembled for a 1967 test
flight of the Apollo lunar module,
astronauts are being trained.
At the pivotal halfway point in the
program this spring, Dr. George
Mueller, the man who manages this
engineering enterprise had this to say:
"The government/industry team required to carry out the manned flight
program is in place and working. The
program is on schedule, a schedule
set when the program began. And, if
progress continues, we will accomplish the manned lunar landing and
safe return of America's astronauts in
this decade."
But Dr. Mueller doesn't want to stop
there. He has emphasized many times that
the lunar mission is just one of the many
possible misszons which can use the capabilities of the Apollo-Saturn program. "The
j r s t successful manned lunar landing will
just scratch the surface. Its greatest achievement will be a demonstration ofthe ability
to travel a quarter of a million miles from
earth, land on that heavenly body and
return safe& here. Other journeys must follow. W e must use the Saturn rockets, the
Apollo spaceship and the launch facilities
. . . over and over again to gain the fullest
return on our investment.
"We can make many jlights in orbit
about the earth, about the moon or to the
moon's surface. By using our capabilities
efectively and imaginatively, we will be
able to carry out a wide variety of missions
of great scientiJic value and of direct bent$
to mankind."
In Mission Operations Control Room at the Manned Spacecraft Center near Houston, Texas, personnel monitor Gemini space flight.
Mission Control Center is the focal point of a global network of tracking and communications stations which provide centralized
control for orbital flights.

�First flight of the integrated Apollol
Saturn space vehicle.
First flight of the first (s-IC) and
second (s-11) stages of the Saturn V
launch vehicle.
First engine restart in orbit of the
upper (s-IVB) stage of the Saturn
vehicle.
First successful demonstration of
Apollo spacecraft performance on
entering the earth's atmosphere at
speeds to be reached on return from a
lunar mission.
The launch vehicle placed the Apollo
stage
spacecraft and the third (s-IVB)
into a 102.5 nautical mile orbit. After
completing two orbits, the third stage
re-ignited to place the Apollo spacecraft into orbit with an apogee of 9,39 1
nautical miles (10,800 statute miles).
Upon separating from the third stage,
the spacecraft raised its apogee to
9,769 nautical miles by firing its service
propulsion system (sps) engine. A second sps burn during descent from apogee boosted re-entry velocity to more
than 36,333 feet-per-second (21,800
knots) for the command module.
The command module, protected by
its heat shield, re-entered the atmosphere. The command module"^ lift
capability was used to split re-entry
heating into two pulses. Drogue and
main parachutes functioned normally
and the spacecraft at splashdown was

recovery vessel, USS Bennington. The
landing point was some 18,500 yards
west of the aiming point.
The Saturn first stage (v s-IC) and
second stage (s-11) performed a s
planned on their maiden flight. The
third stage (s-I-) had flown four times
earlier as the second stage of the Uprated Saturn 1. Commenting on Apollo
4 mission results at a postflight press
conference, NASA Deputy Administrator Dr. Robert C . Seamans said,
"Today we placed in earth orbit over
280,000 pounds. T o give this some
perspective, this is three times the
weight of the six manned Mercury
spacecraft and the ten manned Gemini
spacecraft that we have flown."
"And I believe," Seamans continued,
"that this is a clear indication that our
team of government, industry and university people was not found wanting,
and that we do have the capacity in this
country to be preeminent not only in
space, but in all human endeavor in-
�volving science and technology. The
power of the Saturn V is exceeded
many-fold by our power in this country
to accomplish the near impossible for
the good of all mankind."
The hellish heat generated at blast7ff put a piece of Collins equipment to
s most diabolical test. The equipment,
RADIC (from RAdio Interior Commication) station, was located only
feet from the thundering rocket.

personnel for communication during
tssembly, checkout and launch operaions.
The success of Apollo 4 has rekinled America's hope of rocketing astroauts to the moon and back by the end
f this decade. Recently NASA anounced a new schedule for reaching
-
this goal. In the revised Apollo schedule, command, service and lunar modules will be tested and qualified on
concurrent unmanned flights of the
uprated Saturn and Saturn V launch
vehicles. (Apolloluprated Saturn flights
are identified with a two-hundred series
number, i.e.,ApollolSaturn 204. Saturn
V flights are identified with a fivehundred series number, i.e., Apollol
Saturn 502.) The schedule for 1968:
Apollo/Saturn 204, the first unmanned test of the lunar module in
earth orbit.
ApollolSaturn 502, s e c o n d unmanned flight test of the Saturn V
launch vehicie and command and service modules.
ApollolSaturn 503, third unmanned
test of the Saturn V and command and
service modules.
Apollo/Saturn 206, s e c o n d unmanned flight test of the lunar module
in earth orbit.
ApollolSaturn 205, first Apollo
manned flight, a 10-day mission qualifying the command and service modules for further manned operations.
ApolloISaturn 504, first manned
Apollo flight on the Saturn V launch
vehicle. This mission will provide the
first manned operation in space with
the command and service and lunar
modules, including crew transfer from
the c s r s ~to the LM and rendezvous
and docking.
These flights will be flown in the
above order and as rapidly as all necessary preparations can be completed.
As they proceed, all opportunities to
accelerate progress toward manned
flights and a rapid accumulation of
manned experience with the Apollol
Saturn system will be sought.
The 1969 Apollo flight schedule
calls for five manned ApollolSaturn
flights (A/S505 through AIS 509). Four
of these flights, A/S 505 through 508,
are programmed as lunar mission development flights or simulations.
It is possible that the lunar landing

landing may be delayed until one of
the remaining six Saturn V flights.
Unified S-band spacecraft communication equipment and ground tracking1
communication systems provided by
Collins performed significant roles in
the highly successful Apollo 4 test
flight. The unmanned command module
system performed these functions:
Two-way telemetry transmission.
Receiving and automatic retransmission of ranging signals to determine
orbital velocity and position of the
spacecraft.
Recovery communication.
This was the third space flight test of
the spacecraft communication system,
it having been used on two previous
unmanned Apollo test flights. In future
manned flights, the system will provide
two-way voice communication for
astronauts and television transmission
from spacecraft to earth.
The new unified S-Band ground
tracking1communication network, for
which Collins is prime contractor, was
tested for the first time with an Apollo
spacecraft during the Apollo 4 mission.
This network includes 12 stations with
30-foot antennas and three stations
with 85-foot antennas. Eleven of the
30-foot stations and one of the 85-foot
stations were used for communication
with and tracking the spacecraft. Also
employed during the mission was the
tracking ship Vanguard, which has
Collins systems aboard.
Eventually the new USB ground network will be used for all tracking, communication and data acquisition on all
Apollo missions, including the flight to
land astronauts on the moon and return
them safely to earth.
The spacecraft communication and
data system is provided by Collins
under contract to North American
Rockwell Corp., and the USB ground
network system is provided under contract to NASA'sGoddard Space Flight
Center. Both the spacecraft and ground
systems will be used throughout Project Apollo.
USB combines near-earth and deepspace communication requirements in
a single band of radio frequencies. The
communication and data system also
employs VHF for near-earth and command module-to-lunar module communications. For recover operations, VHF
and HF provide the communication
link. USB replaces C-Band, used in
Mercury and Gemini, for ranging;
although continued use of C-Band is
programmed along with USB in initial
Apollo flights.
Design of the USB system was based
on the coherent doppler and pseudorandom range technique, developed by
NASA'sJet Propulsion Laboratory, and
used in previous unmanned deep space
probes. This technique involves a
ground-based transmitting and receiving station, working in conjunction with
a spacecraft transponder. A single
carrier frequency is utilized in each
direction for the transmission of all
tracking and communications data between the spacecraft and ground. The
voice and up-date data are modulated
onto subcarriers and then combined
with the ranging data. This composite
information is used to phase-modulate
the transmitted carrier frequency. The
received and transmitted carrier frequencies are coherently related: This
allows measurements of the carrier
doppler frequency by the ground station for precise determination of the
radial velocity of the spacecraft.
Voice and telemetry data from the
spacecraft are modulated onto subcarriers, combined with the ranging
signals, and used to phase modulate
the down-link carrier frequency. The

�spacecraft S-Band transponder transmitter also can be frequency modulated for transmitting television, analog
data, or recorded voice and data.
The ground-command module uplink frequency in the phase-modulation
mode is 2106.4 MHz. The coherently
related down-link command moduleearth frequency in the phase-modulation mode is 2287.5 MHz. A second
down-link frequency, 2272.5 MHz, operates in the FM mode.
Simultaneous transmissions can be
made on all three S-Band frequencies.
In the frequency modulation mode,
however, television by itself can be
transmitted or analog datalrecorded
voice and data can be sent, but not
simultaneously.
The communication and data system
is actually a subsystem of the command
module, provided by North American
Rockwell to NASA. AS communication
and data subsystem manager, Collins
was responsible not only for the system
engineering, system testing, and management of the program but also for
the design and manufacture of certain
of the equipments. They include:
Audio center - A solid-state audio
amplification and control unit providing
a complete and independently operated
audio station for each astronaut. Furnishes each crew member with microphone and earphone amplifiers, diode
switching circuits that control audio
signals to and from operating RF equipment or an intercom system, and vox
circuitry to permit voice keying of
transmitters. Three electrically identical groups of audio and switching circuitry are contained in 3 1 small, encapsulated cordwood assemblies, housed
in a gasket-sealed aluminum case.
S-bandpower amplifier-A travelingwave-tube power amplifier for highpower amplification of the low-level
outputs of transponder. The PA unit
contains two independent power amplifiers, either of which can be used to
amplify either t h e p ~or FM frequency
mode. Two power levels, approximately 2.5 and 11 watts, are provided. The
power amplifier is packaged in a sealed
pressurized case, about 5.75 inches
wide, 6 inches high and 22 inches long.
The PA weighs 32 pounds.
Pre-modulation processor- It provides the signal multiplexing and interfacing between voice, data, television
and recording equipment, and command module RF transmitting and
receiving equipment. When the premodulation processor is used in con-

junction with the transponder, both
perform many communication functions that otherwise would require
separate transmitters and receivers.
The pre-modulation processor functions for all S-band transmission and
reception except the ranging signal and
provides interfacing with u s s for command module-lunar module communition via VHF/AM. The pre-modulatioq
processor is of solid-state design with
redundant circuitry and modular construction. Weight is 1 1.3 pounds. The
unit is approximately 4.7 inches wide,
6 inches high and 10.5 inches long.
HF transceiver - Employed for longrange direction finding and voice communication during landing and recovery
phases of mission. Operable in single
sideband, compatible AM or cw modes
on preassigned carrier frequency of
10.006 MHz. Power output is 20 watts
PEP in sss, and 5 watts carrier in AM
and cw. Transceiver is enclosed in a
machined aluminum case, 4 inches
wide, 6 inches high and 8.5 inches long.
Weight is 6.3 pounds.
VHF recovery beacon-A solid-state
tone-modulated AM transmitter that
provides signal for line-of-sight radio
direction finding during landing and
recovery operations. Recovery beacon

at 243 MHz. It has an automatic transmission interruption cycle of 2 seconds
on and 3 seconds off. Unit consists of a
modulator-regulator assembly and an
RF amplifier-oscillator assembly.
Weight is 2.5 pounds, and dimensions
are 4 inches wide. 4 inches hiah
- and
6.75 inches long.
Other elements of the spacecraft
communication and data system are a
VHF AM transmitter-receiver for nearearth and recovery communication,
unified S-band equipment (two phaselocked transponders and an FM transmitter), PCM telemetry equipment, data
storage equipment, and a VHF triplexer
for simultaneous operation of three
channels on a single antenna.
The normal spacecraft-earth voice
communication channel is via U S B .
Voice and telemetry signals originating
in the spacecraft modulate a subcarrier
in the pre-modulation processor. The
subcarrier is routed to the unified
S-band equipment, where it modulates
one of the two redundant transponder
transmitters. The output of the S-band
equipment may be routed directly to
the S-band antenna system or first
passed through the S-band power amplifier, where it is amplified to one of two
selectable power levels.
The communications and tracking
for Apollo is provided by elements of
the Manned Space Flight Network,
built for Mercury, augmented for Gem. .

uniquc requirements of Apollo. The
b.
present Manned Space Flight Network,
managed for NASA by Goddard Space
Flight Center, involves not only NASA,
but also elements of the Department of
Defense and several foreign countries.
Several of the stations, including instrumentation ships, are operated by
the DOD. Stations in Australia are operated by Australians under participating agreements with the Australian
government.
The Manned Space Flight Network
may be regarded as a real-time, global
extension of the monitoring and control
capabilities of the Manned Space Flight
Control Center in Houston. In order to
accomplish this extension, it is necessary to have an effective world-wide
communications network. The communications network, in fact, becomes one
of the most important items in the support of the mission.

�The most significant electronics system addition to the network for support of the Apollo lunar progrant is the
Unified S-Band System. Collins is
prime contractor for the USB System's
ground-based stations-three 85-foot
stations and twelve 30-foot stations.
The three 85-foot stations, which will
provide the primary lunar distance
communications, are a t Goldstone,
Calif.; Madrid, Spain, and Canberra,
Australia. Thirty-foot stations are at
Kennedy Space Center, Florida; Antigua Island; Ascension Island; Bermuda; Canary Islands; Grand Bahama
Island; Carnarvon, Australia; Guam;
Hawaii; Guaymas, Mexico; Corpus
Christi, Texas, and Goddard Space
Flight Center.
Functions of the 30-foot stations include pre-launch and in-flight checkout
of the spacecraft, filling of gaps in coverage of the 85-foot stations, and tracking and communication during orbit.
Each USB station includes a rotating
dish antenna, which automatically locks
on and follows the course of the spacecraft, and electronic equipment for
transmitting, receiving, modulating and
demodulating signals. Each station is
linked by various landline and radio
circuits to the Mission Control Center
at Houston and Goddard Space Flight
Center, Md.
The USE System replaces several
antennas and different links required
for tracking and communications with
the spacecraft. The voice and data are
modulated onto the same RF carrier
used for the tracking function. Output
from the USB System is used to drive
the data demodulating and processing
equipment developed and used for
Project Gemini.
I n the Apollo program, the us3 network will be required to support up to
three vehicles in earth orbit-the command module, the lunar module, and
the Saturn s-IVB. Support is required
for earth-orbital Apollo missions, the
L/M-command module rendezvous
tests, and the checkout of all three
vehicles in earth orbit prior to injection
into the lunar phases of the missions.
Support of both the L/M and command
module throughout the lunar mission
and the command module during the
re-entry phase of the mission is, of
course, the prime role of the USB System. Since the USB System is mandatory for the lunar missions, it must be

checked out and proven capable of
supporting manned missions during the
early Apollo flights, as it was during
Apollo 4.
The unified system approach was
adopted primarily because it offers a
superior technical solution and reduces
spacecraft equipment requirements.
A number of the Unified S-Band
Stations have dual capability; that is,
they are capable of performing doppler
and range measurements as well as
receiving data and voice from two
spacecraft simultaneously.
The 85-foot stations are spaced at
approximately equal intervals of longitude around the earth to provide continuous coverage of lunar missions.
Three Deep Space Instrumentation
Facilities, located near the USB stations, serve as backup stations.
Both instrumentation ships and aircraft will play a primary role in support
of the Apollo program. The Apollo
mission requires burning of the space
vehicle engine in areas where it is not
practical or possible to provide coverage from the land-based stations.
Instrumentation coverage will be provided during these critical phases of
mission by the ships and aircraft. They
will also be used to provide data during
the re-entry phases of the mission in
areas where coverage from land stations rs not available.
Putting men on the moon, man's
most audacious undertaking, will put
to the acid test much of modern technology. Collins, in its participation in
Project Apollo, is determined that its
communication technology will pass
this critical test.
