54L ALERT BxA response summary / Rev. no. A. Fox, T. W.
On 14 July 1971 MSC issued an ALERT (MSC-71-04) on Texas Instruments 54L series integrated circuits. This ALERT indicated that devices manufactured prior to the second week of August 1971 may contain conductive particulate contaminants. Subsequently Bendix received LSPO letter EHZ/10-8/L-505/B requesting a response as to the usage and the potential hardware impact on Array E. This ATM reviews the problem and summarizes the BxA response activities. Revision A reflects the anticipated distribution of screened devices in Array E hardware, additional parts screening and failure analysis results, and a comparison of different logic devices and assembly areas at TI-Dallas.

A16 transmitter B switch (26 March 1973) Wallace, R. B.
At 0926 GMT (actual 0919 GMT) on 26 March 1973 Apollo 16 ALSEP transmitter B was selected by mission control.

Analysis of LEAM experiment response to charged particles Perkins, Donald H.
The objectives of the Lunar Ejecta and Meteorites Experiment (LEAM) were to measure the long-term variations in cosmic dust influx rates and the extent and nature of the lunar ejecta. While analyzing these characteristics in the data, it was discovered that a majority of the events could not be associated with hypervelocity particle impacts of the type usually identified with cosmic dust, but could only be correlated with the lunar surface and local sun angle. The possibility that charged particles could be incident on the sensors led to an analysis of the electronics to determine if such signals could cause the large pulse height analysis (PHA) signals. A qualitative analysis of the PHA circuit showed that an alternative mode of operation existed if the input signal were composed of pulses with pulse durations very long compared to the durations for which it was designed. This alternative mode would give large PHA outputs even though the actual input amplitudes were small. This revelation led to the examination of the sensor and its response to charged particles to determine the type of signals that could be expected. ( 1976, [143] leaves )

Data management study event detection Bedford, A.
This report discusses the problems of handling, controlling and displaying data received from Space Scientific Experiments in the Shuttle Era. The initial impetus for generating this report was a desire to eliminate some of the problems and restrictions on the data handling and displays which were experienced during the ALSEP program. As the study progressed it soon became apparent that a critical review aimed at up-grading the ALSEP data management system was too li1nited in scope due to the major advances which have been made in all aspects of data handling during the last ten years. Consequently the scope of the study was widened to embrace all aspects of data management and the applicability of the latest techniques. ( [1974?], 19 leaves )

LSP Timer overbanking on the lunar surface Jones, Joseph P.
Early in the preliminary design phase of the Lunar Seismic Profiling Experiment (LSP), it was recognized that the environmental conditions to which the timer watch movements would be exposed on the lunar surface would cause an increase in balance wheel amplitude; this could cause "overbanking" and possibly large timing errors in the fast direction. This, in turn, suggested the possibility of LSP timers running out while the astronauts were still on the lunar surface and caused the potential hazard to be categorized as "Safety Catastrophic." This report presents the results of the tests conducted to acquire a fundamental understanding of the problem in quantitative terms and to reduce the hazard potential to "Safety Negligible" in the flight hardware.

The effect of changes in reserve power on Central Station thermal control Wilson, H. W.
Presents a discussion of the interdependence of ALSEP system electrical operation and the thermal balance of the electronics bay in the central station. The sensitivity of variations in electrical dissipation in the central station to RTG output and load variations is indicated. ( 1967, 9 p. )

Thermal analysis of ALSEP prototype "A" Central Station with comparison to test results Hearin, L.
This document describes the analytical thermal model which was developed to determine the steady state temperature distribution of the prototype ALSEP Central Station in a lunar environment. Some test results are presented and compared with predictions made using the described model after preliminary correlation. ( 1968?], 50 leaves )

Thermal vacuum contingency plan / Revision A. Douthat, D.; Wallace, R.
Acceptance testing thermal vacuum contingency plan qual SA, flight 1 and 2 ( 1968, 14 p. )

The surface electrical properties experiment Simmons, Gene,
The purpose of this paper is to describe the general nature of the Surface Electrical Properties experiment now planned for the Apollo 17 missions. This experiment has been designed specifically to operate in the lunar environment where there is believed to be essentially no moisture present. ( 1972], ca. 30 leaves )

Time cycle sensitive component list for LSPE Staats, J. T.
The time/ cycle sensitive list for LSPE is shown below. These parts are the only ones in which a possibility exists that they may be operated or cycled close to their design limit. ( 1971, 1 leaf  )

Time sensitive cycle items LEAM Experiment Van Hoorde, G. R.
There are no Time Sensitive Cycle Items used on the LEAM Experiments. ( 1971, 1 leaf  )

Time sensitive cycle items LSG Experiment Van Hoorde, G. R.
There are no Time Sensitive Cycle Items used on the LSG Experiment. ( 1971, 1 leaf  )

Transmission of engineering (housekeeping) data during the Active Seismic Mode Fahling, W.
This ATM answers Action Item B020107 which requests backup data for not transmitting engineering (housekeeping) data during the Active Seismic Mode. ( 1966, 3 leaves  )

Transmittal of summary actions resulting from the second Post-Apollo Lunar Science Program Review Calia, Anthony J.; O'Bryant, William T.
The Post-Apollo Lunar Science Program Review was held on July 26, 1973, at the NASA Johnson Space Center. The meeting was co-chaired by William T. O'Bryant, Director of Lunar Programs, NASA Headquarters and Anthony J. Calia, Director of Science and Applications, Johnson Space Center. ( 1973, 110 leaves  )

Transmitter design analysis Basson, R.; Tresselt, Carl P.
This ATM presents the results of analytical and experimental efforts, performed during the months of May and June 1970, to evaluate the performance of the ALSEP Data Transmitter, to incorporate design improvements and to document a description of critical circuit operation. ( 1970, 84 leaves )

Traverse Gravimeter Experiment critical design review September 1-2, 1971.
( [1971?], [196] leaves )

Traverse Gravimeter operation and instruction manual
This manual provides general information, functional description and lunar operational procedures for the Traverse Gravimeter (Experiment S-199) ( 1972, ca. 55 p. )

Updated Apollo 15 LRRR (300 corner) pointing analysis for Hadley Rille Wainio, K.
This report summarizes the results of the Apollo 15 LRRR pointing analysis conducted for the final site coordinates specified for Hadley Rille and for the planned prime and possible contingency deployment times. The data presented supersedes that given for the Hadley Rille site in ATM-933. ( 1971, 7 leaves )

Use of Teledyne 421 relay in solid state timer Sondeen, P.
This ATM details the investigation to determine the reliability characteristics of the Teledyne 421, latching relay used to generate the "3-month" output signal of the ALSEP Solid State Timer. The investigation was performed to establish the susceptibility of the relay to "cold welding" over the two-year operational life of the ALSEP system. ( 1969, 8 leaves )
