NASA Publications Online (V. long)

Hey all.

For one reason and another I was collaring a list of NASA publications
online - I can never seem to find the index page when I want it, and
even then the contents seem to be scattered hither and thither. So,
here's a list as they currently stand.

I think I have everything with an SP- or EP- number, and a couple of
others, but there's a good few more needing put in (the un-numbered
reports, the Monographs on Aerospace History, the various JPL &c
publications...)

[This is being posted as much so's a copys dumped in a searchable record
as anything, since NASA have been known to redesign sites at short
notice...)

....Congrats, Andrew. Not only did you beat me to my plans next week
for compiling such a list, you also came up with enough links to
provide enough valid reading material to equal the time it would
require to fully read every article on Mark Wade's site.

Of course, since we're going to require all newbies to read every one
of those monographs *before* being allowed to post, there's going to
be a lot of newbies cursing your name until they die midway through
completing the list...

This post is a keeper. Thanks!

Bless you!

hq,nasa.gov is _so_ convoluted (Their index is incomplete and inaccurate, at
best.) that it's hard to find what you're looking for. A list like this is
long, long overdue.

In my infinite wisdom, I keep bookmarking these and then changing
browser, or any one of a thousand other Really Silly Ways To Lose Data.
(I still have a couple of years of bookmarks in Opera to export from the
old machine, must get it back off t'sibling).

I think I found http://history.nasa.gov/series95.html was a little more
useful for compiling much of the list, though I think there's some
pieces on one and not the other (and I *think* there may have been one
or two not on either list - I started compiling from other sources).
But, you know, once it's there I may as well do something with it ;-)

Incidentally, http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/hqlibr...ks/nasadoc.htm
also looks liable to be interesting (I've just stumbled across it)
