Apollo 10 : The NASA Mission Reports

See all formats and editions

On May 18th 1969 NASA launched the last in a series of daring test flights of the Apollo hardware.

The goal was to send a second crew into deep space but this time with the fully equipped hardware that would be required for a lunar landing.

Veteran astronauts Commander Tom Stafford and Lunar Module Pilot Gene Cernan, were to fly tantalizingly close to the barren lunar surface -- a mere eight nautical miles, while Command Module Pilot John Young would be required to conduct the first rendezvous in lunar orbit to ensure the safe return of his crew mates.

This book finally puts in one place four of the most important documents from this auspicious flight, The Apollo 10 Press Kit, The Apollo 10 Pre-Launch Mission Operation Report, The Apollo 10 Post Launch Mission Operation Report and The Apollo 10 Post Launch Mission Operation Report Supplement.
