Wraps. Zustand: very good. Second Edition. [2], 37, [1] pages. Wraps. Other Glossaries. Tables. Ex-library with usual library markings, some blacked out. Slight wear and soiling to covers. This is one of the Understanding the Atom series. There are 51 booklets in the "Understanding the Atom Series" series published by the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission. The booklets can be grouped into the categories of physics, chemistry, biology, nuclear reactors, the environment, and general interest. Nine of the booklets were available in French and 15 were available in Spanish. Terms defined in this glossary are among those commonly used in nuclear science and its applications. Some also are in common usage or apply in other specialized areas of science and technology. When this is the case, the definitions given are those which have special meaning in nuclear fields, unless otherwise indicated. This glossary is intended for persons who are not specialists in the subject matter of atomic energy. Some definitions may for that reason fall short of technical precision or completeness. A reference list on page 66 includes other glossaries and detailed sources of information. For cross-references, italic type is used. Definitions that employ or refer the reader to synonymous, parallel, similar, or related terms defined elsewhere in this glossary show such terms in italics.

Wraps. Zustand: good. Presumed First Edition/First Printing. xi, [1], 231, [1] pages. Wraps. Frontis illustration. Illustrations. Acronyms. Author index. Pencil erasure on half-title. This volume contains the author's summaries of their papers on the space telescope presented at the 21st annual meeting of the American Astronautical Society at Denver, Colorado, August 26-28, 1975. Space-based astronomy had begun on a very small scale following World War II, as scientists made use of developments that had taken place in rocket technology. The first ultraviolet spectrum of the Sun was obtained in 1946,[12] and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) launched the Orbiting Solar Observatory (OSO) to obtain UV, X-ray, and gamma-ray spectra in 1962. An orbiting solar telescope was launched in 1962 by the United Kingdom as part of the Ariel space program, and in 1966 NASA launched the first Orbiting Astronomical Observatory (OAO) mission. OAO-1's battery failed after three days, terminating the mission. It was followed by OAO-2, which carried out ultraviolet observations of stars and galaxies from its launch in 1968 until 1972, well beyond its original planned lifetime of one year. The OSO and OAO missions demonstrated the important role space-based observations could play in astronomy, and in 1968, NASA developed firm plans for a space-based reflecting telescope with a mirror 3 m in diameter, known provisionally as the Large Orbiting Telescope or Large Space Telescope (LST), with a launch slated for 1979. These plans emphasized the need for manned maintenance missions to the telescope to ensure such a costly program had a lengthy working life, and the concurrent development of plans for the reusable space shuttle indicated that the technology to allow this was soon to become available.

In den WarenkorbSoft cover. Zustand: Good. Original printed staple-bound wraps 15x22cm. (2), 32pp including full-page map of "The Royal City of the Safavid Kings". Good, foxed, with hard vertical crease to the middle, and a slightly musty scent. Very rare with 3 locations on Worldcat (OCLC 34936030: Harvard, NYPL, Cincinnati & Hamilton County Public Library). A later edition seen names Brigadier General Donald Booth rather than Connolly to the front, and adds b/w photos absent here. This was prepared by Second Lieutenant, AUS (Army of the United States), John C. Greene, Director of Tours at Isfahan Tent Camp, with input from Donald Wilber, Assistant Director of the Iranian Institute of New York, whose "cooperation and thorough knowledge of Isfahan" made this possible (opening page). The principal author was the science historian John Colton Greene (1917-2008), who had been drafted and trained as an officer in 1942, sent to Iran during the Tehran Conference, then appointed Connolly's ADC. He wrote this and a companion volume "A Sketch of Iranian History" (undated but c1943) to promote understanding of the Islamic world among GIs, and he also attempted to form discussion groups around the subject. His suspicions that his co-author was working for the Office of Strategic Services would prove correct. Donald Newton Wilber (1907-1997) was one of the two architects of the joint Anglo-US "Operation Boot" / "Operation Ajax", which overthrew Iran's democratically elected PM Mossadegh, and installed Shah Reza Pahlavi in 1953 in response to nationalisation of the Anglo Iranian Oil Company. Isfahan was one of many posts along the Persian Corridor, created by Britain and the US to supply the USSR in WW2. This opens with a history, followed by descriptions incorporating early travel accounts. Locations covered include the Allah Verdi Khan Bridge and Chadar Bagh; the Meidan-i-Shah; Masjid-i-Shah and Masjid Sheikh Lutfullah; Ali Kapn and Chehel Sotun; Khaju Bridge and Madrasseh-i-Mader-i-Shah; New Julfa; Masjid-i-Juma; and the Zoroastrian Ateshgah.
