  "Helium Utilization in the Apollo/Saturn V Vehicle."

  Helium is used extensively throughout the Apollo/Saturn V space vehicle for a number of applications. The welding use is not discussed since it is a special topic. In the first stage (S-IC), helium is used for liquid oxygen tank pressurization during vehicle checkout and launch.

  "A Description of the ST 124-M Inertial Stabilized Platform and its Application to the Saturn V Launch Vehicle."

  This report is a description of the ST124-M inertial stabilized platform system and its application to the Saturn V launch vehicle. It is a summary report providing the system concept and not a theoretical presentation. Mathematical equations were included only where necessary to describe the equipment; however, the detail derivations supporting these equations were not presented since this was not the theme of the paper.

  "Historical Summary: S & ID Apollo Program."

  Four and a half years have passed since President Kennedy and the United States Congress established a national goal of landing a man on the moon, before the end of the decade. This brief history is designed to be a working tool for use during the second half of this great adventure. It is expected that by presenting the events of the past in perspective this document will become a handy reference to accomplishments of the first half of the program. It is hoped that this volume will be of value to those directly and indirectly concerned with North American's portion of the Apollo program. This history contains a chronology of significant events, as well as material on the management of the program, a record of some of the breakthroughs in technology, a report of the hardware produced to date, and the many tests performed to man-rate the equipment.
