---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manned Space Log is an AmigaBASIC program written for the Commodore Amiga
personal computer. It uses a sequential file that contains data for all of
the man-related space missions of the United States and the Soviet Union
from the beginning of the space age to the present. The file (SLMissions)
contains 368 space missions, listed in chronological order, that were
related to the development of manned space flight.
For each mission the following data is given: mission name, launching
nation, launch date, launch site, launch vehicle, payload weight in pounds,
orbital period in minutes (total flight time for suborbital missions),
orbital perigee in statute miles, orbital apogee in statute miles, orbital
inclination in degrees, and remarks.
This program is being released as freeware (the program is free but the
copyright remains with the original author) and may be posted at will as
long as the archive and all of its component files remain unchanged. This
program may be distributed in unarchived form on public domain disks as
long as all of the files are unchanged, they are in the same directory, and
there is no charge except for a reasonable copying fee. If you do feel the
urge to send me some money (cash, travelers checks, loose change, personal
checks, no credit cards), I'll use it to buy computer equipment. The data
in the program is based on my own research and material from NASA, the
Congressional Research Service, the U.S. Air Force, several aerospace
companies, and many individual authors. Any credit for the success of my
program must go in large part to them. I am solely responsible for any
errors which may be present. The current version of this program can be
found in the Amiga areas on PeopleLink and GEnie. In the near future I
plan to rewrite this program in both Lattice C and ARexx. Anyone who has
comments or suggestions for improvements should contact the author via any
of the means listed below. Your input will be very welcome.
