I know that most are assigned to specific duties - life support, rendezvous, EVA, etc. I work at Stennis Space Center and my office is in the test stand where the Saturn booster was tested. I'm trying to get a road, building, test stand or something named after one of the earlier pioneers. I'm tired of things around here being named after politicians. Our center director has indicated to me that he will push for having such a tribute done if I do the research. All I've been able to find so far - without confirmation - is that Deke Slayton and Gene Cernan were involved in propulsion systems and test. Any help is greatly appreciated. -------------------- Tom Nicolaides http://www.first-light.org Post Extras       Entire thread Subject Posted by Posted on Astronauts involved in Propulsion Test Shadowalker 07/15/08 01:13 PM Re: Astronauts involved in Propulsion Test Rick Denison   07/15/08 07:25 PM Re: Astronauts involved in Propulsion Test Shadowalker   07/16/08 10:00 AM Extra information 1 registered and 1 anonymous users are browsing this forum.
