Author Description

"A complete set of the two reports to Congress required by the 1958 National Aeronautics and Space Act. Part A, 'Annual Reports on Activities in the Aeronautics and Space Field, 1958-1984', contains the annual reports from the President detailing the activities and accomplishments of all federal agencies in the field of aeronautics and space. Part B, 'Semiannual Reports to the Congress from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, 1958-1969' are the reports required of NASA. These are continued after 1969 in Part A. These reports provide key information about NASA from its beginnings to the first moon landing, help trace the history of manned space flight from Eisenhower's Mercury Program through the Apollo Program of the 1960s, and detail information about numerous lesser-known programs. These reports were not published as federal depository items and were not included in the Serial Set"--The Library of Congress Guide to the Microform Collections in the Humanities and Social Sciences Division, online version.
