NASA Master Diagram, Integrated Functional Flow Path and Software Integration Chart
Original Master Flowchart Diagram from Grumman Aerospace titled, Integrated Functional Flow Path and Software Integration Chart, including Threat Determination Countermeasures and Jamming systems as developed by Grumman for NASA as part of the Space Shuttle Development Contracts in 1972.
Grumman became a key player in space technology as the company designed and built the Apollo Lunar Module that was used for the moon landing. In the Post-Apollo era, NASA issued a development contract to Grumman under its new Space Shuttle program to design and develop an Orbiter vehicle which could be reused on multiple missions. These extremely rare original schematics are part of the master plans drafted by Grumman under the NASA development contracts. The plans are entirely hand drafted in pencil on a delicate ivory tinted trace paper which was a common medium used by engineers for drafting technical documents. This document still has portions of border drafting tape that was applied to the surface of the drawing. These extremely rare original schematics are part of the master plans drafted by Grumman under the NASA development contracts. The plans are drafted on translucent polyester/plastic drafting film which was a common medium used for creating master drafting documents during this period. The full description of the diagram as found in the different sections is and includes Integrated Functional Flow Paths for: 'Treat Determination'; 'Countermeasure Set Controls' and 'Jamming Systems Controls'. This document is also labeled 'Figure II-2-3 (Typical) System Functional Matrix.' This extensive flowchart includes numerous handwritten notations and marks in pencil. There is also a separate note with the rolled diagram with the handwritten notation, 'Master Matrix EA6B'.

Issued: Undated, but are part of the Grumman development project created for NASA in 1972.
Dimensions: 11'' x 75''
