Beginning in 1959, the year after NASA was founded, the publications ran until 1988, with the aim of disseminating scientific and technical knowledge in line with the National Aeronautics and Space Act. Subjects ranged from Cybernetics to Space Mechanics and Rocket Technology, as well as the study of Radiation, Cosmic Rays, Geo and Plasma physics and Extraterrestrial Life. Representing the efforts of those who were set on expanding global research - especially Soviet - these 13 volumes range from May 1970, less than a year after the moon landings, to June 1973. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe publications comprise: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\" aria-level=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\" role=\"presentation\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eR.
