2- Space Shuttle & Orbital Definition Handbooks
A pair of very early Space Shuttle Definition Handbooks dated to July 1973. These are some of the earliest comprehensive Shuttle design definition handbooks in existence. Both are published by the Rockwell International Space Division. One is titled "Orbiter Definition Handbook" and gives detailed information on every aspect of the New Space Shuttle Orbiter including systems layout and function. It has a group of pages that have become unglued from the spine. The other is titled "Space Shuttle System Definition Handbook". This gives the infrastructure and mission profile information from the matting of the Shuttle components "SRB, Center Tank and Orbiter" to launch configuration and complete mission profile, as well as, ground and mission support. These are in good but used condition but these are a very rare set.
