Astrobee D Rocket Performance Graphs





These are the original Astrobee D rocket performance parameters plotted by hand on engineering graph paper. These are scanned images of faxed originals received from NASA/Wallops.

The quality of these performance graphs isn't as good as laser printed masters. Realize that these calculations and graphs were made by hand by engineers before the age of computers.
