CREDITS
The NASA Johnson Space Center Integrated Graphics Operations and Analysis Laboratory
(IGOAL) provided computing and software resources for development of this
version of the SPACE EDUCATORS' HANDBOOK. The IGOAL staff authored modeling
and animation software which proved invaluable in the creation of
the SPACE EDUCATORS' HANDBOOK.
Additionally, Mr. Mike Heidt of the Automation, Robotics, and Simulation Division
of the NASA Johnson Space Center assisted greatly in the production of the
Handbook CDROM. Mr. Heidt's contributions included the adaptation of
content to CDROM. His strategy of using an entry "html" file made
the Handbook CDROM very easy to use. Also, Mr. Heidt's software
expertise enabled the Handbook CDROM to be used on either a PC
Windows or Macintosh computer. It was Mr. Heidt who developed
a means of mass producing the CDROM inhouse.
Finally, encouragement
provided by Mr. Angelo Casaburri at the onset (1990) and throughout
development of the Space Educators' Handbook was instrumental in the
overall success of the project.
