The NASA History Division is pleased to announce new information in three formats.
Revolutionary Atmosphere: The Story of the Altitude Wind Tunnel and the Space Power Chambers by Robert S. Arrighi (NASA SP-2010-4319) is the latest volume in the NASA History Series of publications. Following up on his award-winning CD-ROM on the AWT, Bob Arrighi has written an excellent history of this notable wind tunnel at NASA’s Glenn Research Center. See the attached flyer for details on how to purchase a copy through NASA CASI. We expect the Government Printing Office and commercial vendors such as Amazon.com to sell this book soon. We also plan to post a pdf version online.
A link has been added at the bottom of the HQ Historical Reference Collection main page at https://mira.hq.nasa.gov/history/ that takes researchers to a new page containing Speeches of Key Officials. There are over 400 PDFs of speeches given by Sam Phillips, Homer Newell, George Mueller, Wernher von Braun, Rex Geveden, and others. These speeches are full text searchable.
The first of a series of NASA History Division e-Books is available: Cosmos & Culture: Cultural Evolution in a Cosmic Context (NASA SP-2009-4802), edited by Steven J. Dick and Mark L. Lupisella. Please go to http://history.nasa.gov/series95.html#ebooks to download a .pdf or .mobi version of Cosmos and Culture for use on digital reading devices such as the Kindle™, SONY® Reader and others. We plan to post an .epub version suitable for the iPad soon, as well as e-book versions of other NASA History Series publications.
