the JSC History Collection Archivist
On
February 8, 2001, UHCL signed a Memorandum of Understanding with
NASA’s Johnson Space Center and the National Archives and Records
Administration to provide "temporary transfer of custody and
loan of historically significant records accumulated by JSC relating
to human spaceflight." This MOU allows the records to be housed
in the University Archives where researchers can access them.
The JSC History Collection at UHCL contains eight series documenting manned spaceflight programs: Apollo, Skylab, Apollo Soyuz Test Project (ASTP), Shuttle, Station, Center, General Reference and Oral History. The collection was compiled by numerous historians working on chronologies and histories of the manned space flight programs. Documents were collected from various sources at JSC, contractor, and other NASA centers. Donations will be considered. Please contact the Archivist.
The
NASA Oral History Project began in the mid-1990s with a mission
to identify key personnel involved with JSC activities and to interview
them as part of the historical record. Materials housed at UHCL
consist of biographical data books, and CD and/or cassette recordings.
