Compilation of papers presented at nasa conference on testing, design, performance, and improvements of vtol and v/stol aircraft
The papers presented herein were taken from two Russian publications on the International Geophysical Year. The first four articles (footnoted Certain Articles Regarding Meteorology") are from Nekotoryye Problemy Meteorologii; Sbornik Statey, II Razdel Programmy MGG (Meteorologiya), No. 1, Izdat. Akademii Nauk SSSR (Certain Problems Regarding Meteorology; Collection of Articles, Second Section of the IGY Program (Meteorology), No. 1. Published by the Academy of Sciences Press) Moscow, 1960. The last two articles (footnoted "International Geophysical Year") are from Mezhdunarodnoy Geofizicheskiy God; Sbornik Statey i Materialov, Izdat. Leningradskogo Universiteta (International Geophysical Year; Collection of Articles and Materials. Published by the Leningrad University Press) 1960.
Implementation of programs for conversion of paper tape information to IBM 7090/94 magnetic tape, punched cards, and printed page
Technical papers from AIAA/NASA Third Manned Space Flight Meeting at Houston in November 1964
Takeup reel receives continuous paper tapes from data recording machines. The roller is recessed to have four longitudinal members about its periphery which can be extended or retracted to change the overall diameter of the assembly to allow easy removal of the tapes.
Papers presented at high vacuum simulation techniques conference
Critique of paper by Carter and Kennedy regarding origin of diamonds in Canyon Diablo and Novo Urei meteorite
Bibliography of formal NASA technical reports, papers, and presentations
The nine papers included in this volume were presented by NASA research staff members at the National Meeting on the Future of Manned Military Aircraft sponsored by the Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences and held in San Diego, Calif., from August 1 to August 3, 1960. Because, together, they provide a comprehensive summary of research by NASA in the areas covered, they have been compiled in this publication for the information of personnel concerned with the design and procurement of manned military aircraft.
During the last few years a large number and wide variety of VTOL aircraft types have been studied; some of them promising, some not so promising. The purpose of this paper is to summarize briefly the state of the art in this field and to indicate which of the types are most promising, to bring out applications where they are best suited and to indicate what is needed in the way of additional research and development.
Paper chromatography and mass spectrometry for analyses of pyrimidine and purine bases
Critique of paper by Justus on energy balance of turbulence in upper atmosphere

Nonflammable paper is made from fibers of chrysotile asbestos, beta-glass fibers, glass microfibers, and a little nonflammable organic binder. It does not propagate flame in an atmosphere of 16.5-psig oxygen, and it is resistant to rot and mold, making it acceptable as wrapping material and for stored documents.
