Editor's Note. Index. Illustrated cover. Edgar Maurice Cortright (July 29, 1923 - May 4, 2014) was a scientist and engineer, and senior official at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Cortright went to work at the Lewis Flight Propulsion Laboratory at NACA, in Cleveland, Ohio. There, he held the positions of Aeronautical Research Scientist ; Head of Small Supersonic Tunnels Section; and Chief, Eight-by-Six-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel Branch. He joined NASA agency in 1958 and worked at NASA Headquarters in Washington D.C. where he was Chief of Advanced Technology; Assistant Director for Lunar and Planetary Programs, Office of Space Flight Programs; Deputy Director for Space Science and Applications; Deputy Associate Administrator for Space Science and Applications; and Deputy Associate Administrator, Office of Manned Space Flight. Following the spacecraft explosion during the Apollo 13 spaceflight in April 1970, Cortright was appointed chairman of the Apollo 13 Review Board which was established to investigate the cause of the accident. When Apollo was conceived, a lunar landing was considered so difficult that it could only be accomplished through exceptional large-scale efforts in science, in engineering, and in the development of operational and training systems for long-duration manned flights. These required the application of large resources over time. Industry, universities, and government elements had to be melded into a team of teams. The chapter Webb authored reviewed the origins of this task and how it was implemented. Later chapters by other contributors describe how particular problems were solved, how the astronauts and other teams of specialists were trained and performed, how the giant spaceboosters were built and flown, and how all this was joined together in a fully integrated effort. In many of these essays you will find indications of the meaning of the Apollo program to those who devoted much of their lives to it.…
