Man In Space: Study of Alternatives

National Park Service. 1987. Man In Space: Study of Alternatives. Washington, D.C.

Public Law 96-344 in 1980 directed the secretary of the interior to conduct a study of locations and events associated with the historical theme of Man in Space. It also directed that the study identify possible locations, components, and features of a new unit of the national park system commemorative of this theme, with emphasis on the internationally historic event of the first human contact with the moon. This Study of Alternatives responds to the request from Congress for a report describing potential actions to safeguard from change the identified locations, components, and features and to display and interpret them for visitor appreciation.
