	Little Joe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The primary mission objectives for Little Joe as seen in late 1958 (in addition to studying the capsule dynamics at progressively higher altitudes) were to test the capsule escape system at maximum dynamic pressure, to qualify the parachute system, and to verify search and retrieval methods.
		The minimum aims of each Little Joe shot could be supplemented from time to time with studies of noise levels, heat and pressure loads, heatshield separation, and the behavior of animal riders, so long as the measurements could be accomplished with minimum telemetry.
		The engineers who mothered Little Joe to maturity knew it was not much to look at, but they fondly hoped that their ungainly rocket would prove the legitimacy of most of the ballistic capsule design concepts, thereby earning its own honor.

		When Project Mecury began in October 1958, the purposeof the Little Joe phase was to propel a full-scale, full-weight developmental version of the manned spacecraft to some of the flight conditions that would be encountered during exit from the atmosphere on an orbital mission.
		Also, Little Joe tests were used to perfect the escape maneuver in the event of an aborted mission.
		The later Little Joe II depended on the inherent stability of the total vehicle to attain a successful ballistic trajectory to test altitude.

	Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Little Joe
		Joe may not have been the most famous western character to come out of comics (that would probably be Red Ryder), but at 39 years, he had the longest continuous run.
		In 1953, St. John Publishing (which was licensing the Terrytoons characters at the time) brought out a single issue of a Little Joe comic book, but it was about a modern kid character along the lines of Dennis the Menace.
		But the solid, often gripping stories of Little Joe's early days have lasting appeal, as indicated by the fact that a CD-ROM reprinting early adventures was published as recently as 2002.

		Michael Ferguson's Little Joe Superstar: The Films of Joe Dallesandro is a little bit more than nostalgia, and little bit more than dèja vu: it is a lot that you never knew at the time, that in a way you wish you had known then but, in a way, you're glad you didn't.
		The focus of the book, of course, is Joe Dallesandro, the very pretty, quiet young man who became, through the more-or-less happenstance intervention of Andy Warhol and Paul Morrisey, a heart-throb for both men and women.
		Yes, Little Joe was a gay icon back when the term actually meant something, and in spite of the fact that he himself is straight (or perhaps because of it – he seems to exude a kind of availability that has nothing to do with orientation), and one might even opine that he was exploited.
