	Contact Light - a personal retrospective of Project Apollo
		Project Mercury concluded in 1963 after six successful Earth-orbital and sub-orbital flights, and Project Gemini continued paving the way to the Moon in March of 1965.
		The Apollo project was dealt a major setback in early 1967 with the tragic Apollo 1 fire and death of its crewmen during training, and it wasn't until October of 1968 (23 months after the final Gemini flight) that manned missions resumed with the launch of earth orbital mission Apollo 7.
		Apollo 17 set records for total duration of lunar EVA's (22 hours), distance driven with the LRV (36 km.) and lunar samples collected (254 lbs.), and brought the manned lunar landing missions to conclusion in grand fashion with a spectacular televised lunar liftoff.

	Apollo Project
		The success of the Apollo Project rested on the development of the Saturn series of launch vehicles, and, in particular the Saturn V moon rocket.
		President Eisenhower initially opposed this development beyond the Mercury Project, but Apollo was given the green light by his successor on May 21, 1961, when President Kennedy declared America’s goal of placing humans on the Moon by the end of the decade.
		Apollo 7 and 9 were Earth-orbiting missions to test the CM and LM.

	Spaceflight :Project Apollo
		Project Apollo required construction of facilities to build the Saturn, and for mission control and astronaut training, as well as for design of the spacecraft and rockets.
		Apollos 9 and 10 were launched in early 1969 to test equipment and practice procedures for the lunar mission.
		Apollo 10 astronauts Thomas Stafford, John Young and Eugene Cernan flew a “dress rehearsal” of the first lunar landing mission, with Stafford and Cernan descending to within 50,000 feet (14,240 meters) of the Moon's surface.

	[No title]
		Project Apollo was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the United States of America using the Apollo spacecraft, conducted during the years 1961-1972.
		During Project Apollo, six highly complex manned craft landed on the Moon, took off and returned to Earth using a relatively low level of technology.
		Their project worked more towards first sending an unmanned lander to the Moons surface to collect samples, take pictures and measure radiation levels.

		In addition, the first two sheets of a projected 144 sheet map coverage of the lunar surface on a 1:1,000,000 scale were forwarded to STG by the Center.
		A Navy YFNB barge was obtained by NASA to serve as a replacement for the Palaemon in transporting of the Saturn booster to Cape Canaveral.
		The proposal was in direct competition with the Apollo proposals that favored direct landing on the moon and involved a 150,000-pound payload launched by a Nova-class vehicle with approximately 12 million pounds of thrust.

	Wal-Mart Joins Project Apollo
		Project Apollo combines Arbitron's portable people meter system and ACNielsen's Homescan technology to provide advertisers with measures of multimedia exposure and consumer purchasing behavior.
		In addition to participating in the pilot, Wal-Mart will also join the other advertisers as a member of the Project Apollo steering committee, which, along with their agencies, advises Arbitron and VNU on the design of the service.
		"We are looking to Project Apollo as an innovative research service that will help us understand how multiple touch points of our media strategies work, including traditional vehicles and obviously our own store communication touch points," said Ramon Portilla, director of communication insights at Wal-Mart, which spends $570 million annually in domestic measured media.

	Adobe Reveals More Details on Apollo
		The idea behind Apollo, Hay said, is to enable apps currently made from Flash and PDF to "move beyond the browser" by assigning Flash-based apps a desktop icon that can be launched like traditional apps and utilities.
		Apollo will also bridge the print and software world, traditionally Adobe's bailiwick, with the exuberance of the third-party developer market, which was Macromedia's bread-and-butter.
		Hay added that Adobe plans to get a free Apollo public alpha download into developers' hands as quickly as possible on the Adobe Labs site so they can experiment with creating their own apps, but it won't be until much later this year.

	APOLLO
		APOLLO measures the round-trip travel time of laser pulses bounced off the lunar retroreflectors to a precision of a few picoseconds, corresponding to about one millimeter of precision in range to the moon.
		A total of four lunar retroreflectors are functional: three Apollo reflectors from Apollo 11, 14, and 15 (three times bigger than 11 and 14), and one French-built, Soviet landed (unmanned) unit from the Luna 21 mission.
		APOLLO has benefited from the professional expertise of: Larry Carey, Peter Doherty, Erik Swanson, Sterling Fisher, Tim van Wechel, Allan Myers, Mark Klaene, Russell Owen, and Jeff Morgan.

	ACNielsen Trends&Insights - Media on the Move: How to Measure In- and Out-of-Home Media Consumption
		Another way to think about Project Apollo is that it would aggregate a “day in the life” of thousands of consumers.
		Here's an example of what Project Apollo might capture and aggregate in “a day in the life” of a health conscious, Visa- and MasterCard-toting married woman, age 41, with a 13-year-old daughter who lives a hectic life, eats out four to six times a week and places a premium on convenience.
		With Apollo, the connection from exposure to action will be clear, direct and measurable, informed by a robust collection of rich consumer profiles contributed by panel members.
