Introduction

THIS booklet attempts to list all Special Publications that have been released by NASAsince the series was begun in 1961. It is an effort to still cries from those who have asked

for a comprehensive listing. The Special Publication series, which has included some ofNASA's most ambitious scientific or technical books, has covered a broad range of topics,including much of the agency's research and development work, its full range of space-exploration programs, its work in advancing aeronautics technology, and many associatedhistorical and managerial efforts. In the nearly two decades that the series has existed, some1200 titles have borne the SP identifier.

How NASA Special Publications came about may be instructive. Along with severalpredecessor agencies, NASA research laboratories were accustomed to publishing reports,using a formal structure of four or five separate series, with the characteristics of each seriescarefully defined. Inevitably this raised the question, how do you categorize reports thatdon't fit existing patterns? The answer, obviously, is that you put them in another serieslabeled "special." The backroom gnomes who invented this solution had no knowledgethat they were inventing a bushy tail that would soon wag the dog. By the mid-1960s thenew series was becoming preeminent among NASA publications, and.beginning to winworldwide recognition. • . •

The reason of course is that these were exciting years. It was the time of Mercury,Gemini, and the foundation work for Apollo in manned spaceflight; of Ranger, Mariner,and Surveyor in unmanned probes; of dozens of scientific and applications satellites. It wasa time when weather satellites first gave early hurricane warnings, and when relay stationsin the sky made intercontinental television an everyday affair. It was a time when spacecraftbegan to capture and return exciting images from space, of steadily improving resolutionand quality, providing insights long denied to terrestrial eyes. The editors producingNASA SPs worked long and hard at obtaining the best reproduction quality that could bemanaged with the constraints imposed by time and available funds, and the quirks ofGovernment printing regulations. .

So the series flourished and grew beyond precedent and dreams. Subsets appearedwithin the numbering scheme, with special blocks of numbers for handbooks, for histories,for technology-utilization books, for bibliographies, and for spacecraft design criteria. TheSP General series bloomed with mission reports, scientific results, aerodynamic treatises,atmospheric models, structural analyses, and planetary atlases. By the mid-1970s it was evi-dent that increasing selectivity and the invention of subsets were not effective in checkingthe overbalancing growth of the series, and a reorganization took place. Analysis showedthat more and more proceedings of conferences were being published, for nowadaysresearch and exploration are almost invariably collective activities, and the practitioners areintensely interactive people. So these publications were split off and given a series of theirown, Conference Publications. Handbooks, data compilations, and computer printoutsbecame Reference Publications. Administrative and ephemeral studies were relegated toother crevices of the publishing system. But so wide-ranging are NASA's goals and mis-sions, that the flow of forthcoming SPs remains scarcely abated.

As this booklet goes to press, there are about 450 titles in the General SP series alone.Many have been very popular, often publicized by word of mouth; but promotion anddistribution have perhaps never been adequate, and so visibility is somewhat limited.NASA's policy has been to recognize that it can provide copies only to its "extendedfamily"—itself, its contractors and grantees, and the various academic, scientific, and in-dustrial communities involved in space exploration and aeronautics. The general public hasbeen expected to turn to the Government Printing Office or to the National Technical In-formation Service for publications. Both organizations have recently been displaying talentin book merchandising, but for most of the life of the SP series it has been sadly true that a

Page 5: Catalog of NASA Special · Special Publications have become best sellers, including EXPLORING SPACE WITH A CAMERA, THIS ISLAND EARTH, APOLLO EXPEDITIONS TO THE MOON, MISSION TO EARTH,

would-be buyer had to want a book pretty badly to get it. Nevertheless, several dozenSpecial Publications have become best sellers, including EXPLORING SPACE WITH A CAMERA,THIS ISLAND EARTH, APOLLO EXPEDITIONS TO THE MOON, MISSION TO EARTH, and THEMARTIAN LANDSCAPE. The popularity of the richly illustrated books came as no surprise tothe backroom editors who produce SPs, but who would have foreseen the success of suchunassuming titles as CLARITY IN TECHNICAL REPORTING, or SOLDERING ELECTRICALCONNECTIONS?

Special Publications produced in the last twenty years cover a range of subjects. Many ofNASA's glorious moments are found in this series. Some of the SPs are scientific and aredistributed mainly within a discipline; others present a popular discussion of NASA's pro-grams and are heavily illustrated with color imagery from space.

Those Special Publications thought to have a wide interest or which were disciplinaryclassics were printed at GPO, and those published within the last few years or which havebeen good sellers are still available from GPO.

Copies of all books listed as available from NTIS as well as books allowed to go out ofprint at GPO are available from NTIS. A note of caution: if you order a book from GPOand a reply indicates that it is out of print, you should reconsider your order. If you haveordered a book primarily for the photography or imagery, a subsequent order from NTISwill not be satisfactory. If, however, your interest is in the text, the black and whitephotocopy supplied from NTIS will be suitable. NTIS is the sales source for publicdocuments produced by the government agencies. A few printed copies are available ini-tially, but once that supply is depleted, NTIS supplies photocopies.

In the list of publications that follows, a brief description is given together with theoriginal sales source and the publication date. The prices are not listed because theychange. Phone or write GPO or NTIS for prices of publications that interest you. GPO willwant to know the NASA SP number; NTIS will want to know the seven-digit NASA acces-sion number.

As you browse through this list, and you find an attractive title, take care to notice thedate of publication. Many books are out of date, and are of historical value only. For exam-ple, some books on Mars predate the 1976 Viking mission.

This capsule account of the growth of NASA SPs is necessarily abbreviated, and omitsmany tales of the lurches, false starts, and dead ends that accompany many human enter-prises. It does suggest, though, that as long as bright people devote their lives to excitingresearch and exploration, energetic and devoted backroom editors will remain to try to cap-ture their results, and a little of their spirit, on paper.—Kay E. Voglewede.
