20th Century NASA History: Skylab and Apollo-Soyuz (ASTP) Image Galleries and NASA Documents plus Gemini Image Gallery

This definitive electronic book on CD-ROM presents a magnificent collection of documents and images from the Skylab program and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project (ASTP) mission, plus a gallery of high-resolution Gemini photos. Fifteen documents provide nearly 4,000 pages of important reference and research material! Some of the internal NASA documents in the collection have been made available for the first time by World Spaceflight News. Among the documents: Skylab and ASTP mission checklists and flight plans, NASA histories, press kits and press references, and drawings and technical diagrams. A special feature of this CD-ROM is our "IMAGE GALLERY" in Adobe Acrobat format, which reproduces over 1600 photos in a computerized "photo album" suitable for quick full-screen browsing! In the Image Gallery, many of the photos are accompanied by the official NASA caption. This format was designed to mimic the look and "feel" of a real book; there is no need to laboriously import specific images into a slow-loading program for viewing and printing. As you flip through the images in the Gallery, you can magnify photographs for better viewing. For completeness, we've also included each of the original image files (in .gif and .jpg formats) which can be copied onto your computer and used as you would any graphics file. This CD-ROM is perfect for anyone interested in the spectacular history of American manned spaceflight!

Please see the Table of Contents section for a full list of documents.

The documents are reproduced using Adobe Acrobat PDF software - allowing direct viewing on Windows 95/98, Windows 3.1, NT, and Apple Macintosh systems. Reader software is included on the CD.
