Try looking up "NASA pdfs"

[Clockwork13]

This is especially for those of you who like skimming through technical information, you can find out a lot of pretty interesting stuff this way. I found a few declassified Apollo transcripts and data sets among other stuff.

You can post links to what you find here!

Sadly, I can't find CR-2004-213305 in there. This is the only NASA report with the lead author being a certain "Michael J. Garrison".

Congrats on having a published NASA report! 

Is it called "The Effect of Constrained Cruise Altitudes on Fuel Usage, NOx Production, and Flight Time for Commercial Aircraft?" As far as I can tell, it's not available anywhere on the internet.

Yes, that was it. It was a response to a paper that suggested there would be few penalties if airplanes cruised at lower altitudes to avoid making contrails. We tried to quantify that the penalties would be bigger than the other paper estimated.

Rockets and People: Boris Chertok’s books on 60 years of the Russian Space program (I bogged down in volume 2, but am glad I've read at least this far).

I'm looking at the STS-107 report right now

Thanks for the tip.

This isn't going to be fascinating for you all, and a lot of it goes over my head, but...

https://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/casi.ntrs.nasa.gov/19740008105.pdf

This was authored by my Grandfather when he worked for NASA Lewis. It's about a very hot heat transfer loop, which is most likely related to the SP-100 nuclear reactor project he worked on, which was a stirling type design, requiring very hot heat transfer loops.

And, yes, you'll know my last name, but really nobody will care as you can already find that if you look hard enough.

I found two from my father.  One from 1974 and one from 2014.

TipTopTip of the day: when searching in google, you can enter the term "filetype:pdf" (without quotes) with any search terms and it will only return results that are links to PDFs. Of course you can put any file extension instead of PDF.

But that could reduce a different type of noise, along with releases of aerosolized or evaporated vinegar.

P.S. Who knew that the global and apparently both Zionist and Freemason conspiracy is a member of the Sky Team Alliance?
