Apollo Lunar Surface Journal
« on: November 04, 2010, 03:39:46 PM »
Saw this on a NASA blog today.  I wasn't sure if there was an appropriate topic already existing for this sort of info, so feel free to move it if needed.

The Apollo Lunar Surface Journal (ALSJ) is an online record of the lunar surface operations conducted by the six pairs of astronauts who landed on the Moon from 1969 through 1972, and is available to the general public.

The ALSJ site includes mission transcripts, as well as crew information, lunar sample catalogs, commentary from the Apollo astronauts, and more. Other related resources available are: the Apollo Flight Journal, which includes spacecraft design information; "Working on the Moon", which includes lessons learned about living and working in the lunar environment; an Apollo Image Gallery; and an Apollo Bibliography, which includes related websites and other print information of interest related to the Apollo missions. The ALSJ site is also available in French and German.

Looking for more in-depth or related info? Love the site but not quite sure how to start searching for the info you need? Please feel free to contact the Glenn Science & Engineering Library for additional assistance.

The ALSJ is one of my all-time favourite websites. :)

Also- a great companion site to the ALSJ is the Apollo Archive

http://www.apolloarchive.com/apollo_archive.html

What's important is what goes on in the upper left hand corner-- Image Gallery, Multimedia Gallery, etc..... as you click through you can access hundreds of hi res photos, audio & video clips.  

One can get lost in there for hours & hours.  :lol:
