The Eclipse Project by Tom Tucker provides a readable narrative and
a number of documents that record an important flight research
effort at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center. Carried out by
Kelly Space & Technology, Inc. in partnership with the Air
Force and Dryden at Edwards Air Force Base in the Mojave Desert of
California, this project tested and gathered data about a potential
newer and less expensive way to launch satellites into space.
Whether the new technology comes into actual use will depend on
funding, market forces, and other factors at least partly beyond
the control of the participants in the project. This is a familiar
situation in the history of flight research.
