Description

“NASA regulations do not allow us to accept any articles from the general public to be taken on space missions”

TLS signed “D. K. Slayton,” one page, 8 x 10.25, NASA letterhead, stamp-dated March 3, 1975. Letter to a space enthusiast denying a request. In full: “Regarding your request for me to carry a stamp on the ASTP mission, I regret that I cannot. We receive many more requests than we could possibly fulfill even if we were permitted to do so. However, NASA regulations do not allow us to accept any articles from the general public to be taken on space missions. I am sorry I cannot be more accommodating.” In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope. Pre-certified Steve Zarelli and RR Auction COA.
