Description

Uncommon ring-bound NASA manual entitled “Final Apollo 11 Flight Plan, AS-506/CSM-107/LM-5," 294 pages, 8 x 10.5, dated July 1, 1969. The manual is comprised of six sections: general summaries and schedules, update forms, detailed timeline, detailed test objectives, consumables, and flight plan summary. Front cover marked “TELCOM” and several interior pages marked and annotated by an unknown hand in ink and felt tip. A group of seven revision sheets accompany the flight plan, which includes two memorandums relating to revisions A and B, respectively dated July 8 and 15, 1969, and then the paperwork for the proposed changes; many of the changes are checked off in black felt tip, with the corresponding page reflecting the made revision. In very good to fine condition, with light foxing, staining, and wear to the cover page. As mankind's first lunar landing mission, the flight plan for Apollo 11 was among the most important of all documents prepared by NASA. A significant, detailed piece documenting the minute-by-minute plan for the historic voyage to the lunar surface.
