This volume is largely a response to repeated requests for basic historical information. It is intended to serve as a ready informational reference, one from whence more detailed historical analysis should proceed. The scope of this chronology is defined in accordance with the following criteria: Emphasize scientific research and engineering development in aeronautics and astronautics as well as their related fields; Demonstrate historic use of aircraft, rockets, balloons, and spacecraft as tools of scientific research; Specialize upon U.S. efforts with inclusion of sufficient items on general historical events and foreign progress to retain an undistorted historical context; Illustrate practical exploitation of technological progress in aeronautics and astronautics; and Exploit generally available source materials to insure widest and early utilization of the material compiled.
