内容説明
CD-ROM and Book. When the crew of Apollo 11 returned to earth in July 1969 they brought with them a wealth of new information about the moon. Now astronauts Charles (Pete) Conrad, Alan Bean and Richard Gordon would return to the moon and build on that knowledge. The real test for the crew of Apollo 12 was not to see if they could get to the moon, but to see if they could get to an exact place on the moon. Their target was in an area known as the Ocean of Storms. On 14 November 1969 the crew of Apollo 12 blasted off to their place in history. Not only would Conrad and Bean become the third and fourth men to walk on the moon but they would land the lunar module Intrepid within 600 feet of their designated target. Waiting for them was the unmanned space probe Surveyor 3 which had soft-landed in April 1967. The flight of Apollo 12, which began almost catastrophically when the huge Saturn V was struck by lightning just moments after lift off, went on to yield an enormous amount of valuable data collected during over seven and a half hours on the lunar surface. On their return home the crew of Apollo 12 became the first humans to witness an eclipse of the Sun by the Earth.
Book Description
The real test for the crew of Apollo 12 was not to see if they could get to the moon, but to see if they could get to an exact place on the moon. Their target was an area known as the Ocean Of Storms. The flight of Apollo 12, which began almost catastrophically when the huge Saturn V was struck by lightning just moments after lift off, went on to yield an enormous amount of valuable data collected during over seven and a half hours on the lunar surface. Some of the rare official documentation of the voyage of Apollo 12 is collected and made commercially available for the first time. Includes - Windows CD-ROM featuring: Over 2000 - 70 mm images taken during the mission; Several unique interactive panoramic images of The Ocean Of Storms; A 25 minute movie of the voyage of Apollo 12; plus the complete TV footage from the lunar surface and the in-flight press conference - over two hours of full screen, full MPEG video.
The NASA Mission Reports is a series of books that will include all of the Apollo missions from Apollo 8 to Apollo 17 and all of the Mercury, Gemini and Skylab missions. All books will have CD-ROMs included.

Excellent compilation of Apollo 12 documents

Once again another great book in the series. It puts in one place many of the most significant documents related to the flight of Apollo 12. It has a complete library of all of the 70mm photos. Most I suspect have never been published before. I've already come across some facts that I hadn't read before, such as the fact that Al Bean got knocked on the head by a camera during landing. Like it's companions in the series it is a wonderful source for space buffs. I just hope the series continues to document all the flights through Apollo 17.

Another volume in this valuable series
2001/2/23

Yet another volume in this valuable series. Apollo 12 advanced on the first moon landing mostly by doing more: more geology (including two moonwalks instead of one), a pinpoint landing (within walking distance of Surveyor III), and more surveying for possible future sites. The major excitement was the Saturn V being struck by lightning shortly after liftoff, or, as the official report included in this volume euphemistically puts it, "an electrical potential discharge from the clouds through the space vehicle to the ground." That and the loss of the television camera early in the first EVA, which I think contributed significantly to the loss of interest back home.
The contents are by now just about standard: the press kit, the pre-mission report, the post-mission report, and the crew debriefing. I was glad to see the return of the latter after missing it on Apollo 9. (It's not in volume 1 of the Apollo 11 coverage, but I assume it's in volume 2.) That was a bit more jargon-filled than usual but still worthwhile to skim. Another one for the completist.

Blastoff!

This has just about everything associated with the preparation and chronology of the Apollo 12 mission- crew bios, debriefings, diagrams etc. As great as all that is, it lacks analysis of the mission itself, and its importance in the history human space exploration. So, its more like a press kit. the details with and the CD with photos are EXTREMELY valuble, although almost all of the information (including photos- most with better resolution) can be found on the WWW. Such is progress.
