"System engineering propulsion, III-C-1."
Page numbering is inconsistent; there are no pages numbered 14 - 17. Some pages have handwritten numbers, others have no numbers at all.; The print quality of many pages is poor. Discusses the definition and function of propulsion as well as how to most effectively employ it . -
"System safety handbook."
The testing of a hardware system consists of' subjecting it to carefully controlled operating conditions for the purpose of demonstrating that this system performs its function properly. -
"Systems applications in orbital launch operations."
The objective is to examine the technical requirements and feasibility of conducting orbital launch operations with systems now in the development phase. In order to maintain realistic constraints on the analysis, the Saturn S-IVB stage has been used as an example of present stage technology. The requirements, procedures and complexity of operations for orbital assembly and launch are discussed. The primary design requirement for orbital assembly and launch operations is increased orbital stay time (from hours to days or weeks). -

"Table II : comparison of typical mechanical properties of experimental alloys with commercial alloys."
8 x 10 inch black and white photograph of a table comparing the tensile strength of each alloy in relation to a desired goal. -
"Table IV : chemical composition of M-45 and other high strength aluminum casting alloys."
8 x 10 inch black and white photograph of a graph displaying different alloys and comparing their 'nominal composition weight per cent' to one another. -
"Table V : mechanical properties of aluminum casting alloys."
8 x 10 inch black and white photograph of a table detailing the tensile strength, tensile yeild, elongation per cent and charpy impact of alloys. -
"Technical facilities & equipment digest."
This document portrays the capability of technical facilities and equipment at the George C, Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) , one of three basic field centers under the NASA Office of Manned Space Flight. -
"Technical History of Saturn."
Draft of working paper. Typed with handwritten notes (title and author) and pages. Copy in MSFC files noted on first page. -
"Technical Information Summary Apollo 8 (AS-503) Apollo Saturn V Space Vehicle."
This document is prepared jointly by the Marshall Space Flight Center laboratories R-AERO-P, R-ASTR -S, and R-P&VE-VN . The document presents a brief and concise description of the AS-503 Apollo Saturn Space Vehicle. Where necessary, for clarification, additional related information has been included. It is not the intent of this document to completely define the Space Vehicle or its systems and subsystems in detail. The information presented herein, by text and sketches, describes launch preparation activities, launch facilities, and the space vehicle. This information permits the reader to follow the space vehicle sequence of events beginning a few hours prior to liftoff to its journey into space.
