Title: The Development of cryogenic storage systems for space flight
Description: " ... this report is intended to serve the following purposes in a comprehensive manner from the historical and informative point of view: (1) to trace and report on the development of cryogenic technology from its inception through the Gemini Program, Apollo Program, Apollo Applications Program (Skylab), and beyond to some estimates of the role of cryogenics in the future; (2) to provide the information necessary to understand the interdependence and relationship of the various cryogenic systems that have been developed and the programs that have been involved; (3) to provide fundamental information necessary for a basic understanding of cryogenics; and (4) to present a partial compilation of the uses that are being made of aerospace cryogenics technology spinoff."--Page v.
