"NEXUS concept of a large reusable earth launch vehicle."
Aspects of Earth-to-orbit delivery are discussed and a cost analysis of the logistic operation and the cost of orbital operations are presented. Probabilities of success of orbital delivery and the operational and economic aspects of establishing large orbital installations and maintaining a large transportation volume in the 1975/85 time period are compared for the two cases using a large number of Saturn V versus a smaller number of 1-stage chemical Post-Saturn launch vehicles. Performance parameters of chemical, chemonuclear and nuclear launch vehicles are compared. The concept of a blunt launch vehicle configuration referred to as NEXUS is presented in detail. Applications of this configuration to chemonuclear propulsion and to a 50 ft diameter version of Saturn V with recoverable first stage are discussed. -

"Proceedings : second NASA-wide reliability & quality assurance meeting : NASA Headquarters, November 29 - December 1, 1966."
The papers presented at the second NASA-Wide Reliability and Quality Assurance Meeting are published to disseminate current experiences and information. These papers, presented at NASA Headquarters on November 29 - December 1, 1966, are one means of exchanging current NASA reliability and quality assurance knowledge between projects and programs. This publication has been marked "FOR NASA USE" since it contains management opinions and contract experiences. Publication of papers suitable for wide dissemination in the Government, industry and University community is expected to be made separately. John E.

"Preliminary skeletal operations plan for Apollo :" a systems engineering support document.
The Preliminary Skeletal Operations Plan is a statement of the operational concept for Apollo. This draft contains a description of the conduct of the Apollo LOR landing mission and a mission profile. It provides the basis for more detailed mission planning, for generating functional criteria for equipment design, and for measuring the adequacy of the current Apollo hardware for satisfying operational needs. -
