Sounding Rocket Flight Data Summary 1966-1976
This report is a summary listing of all AFGL sounding rockets launched from 1966 to 1976. Listed data includes the launch time, date, place, and number; the type of rocket launched; the name of the project scientist; the impact time, range, azimuth, apogee time, and altitude; payload weight and length; the recovery, ACS type, and performance; experiments flown; support systems; remarks; and total vehicle performance.
NASA Sounding Rockets, 1958-1968
Sounding rockets provided the first means to carry instruments to the outermost reaches of the Earth's atmosphere. They were, indeeed, our first space vehicles. As Mr. Corliss relates in this history, in this day of satellites and deep space probes, sounding rockets remain as important to space science as ever, furnishing our most powerful means for obtaining vertical profiles of atmospheric properties. NASA continues to depend on sounding rockets for research in astronomy, meteorology, ionospheric physics, exploratory astronomy, and other disciplines.
Dispersion Control System for Sounding Rockets
High altitude sounding rockets have always presented a problem to small test ranges such as WSMR because of rocket dispersion. This report presents a strap-on dispersion control system employing a 16-bit microprocessor as its brains that requires only software changes to accommodate different sounding rocket vehicles. Mostly the report contains a detailed explanation of the electronic hardware used, and the software developed, for a Paiute-Tomahawk sounding rocket.
