Flat Plate Solar Array and Mobile Solar Projects Collection 1953-1988.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/733100799

This collection contains most of the subcontractor documentation from Westinghouse Electric Corporation and a few others of the one hundred-three subcontractor institutions and companies in the form of contracts, correspondence, final reports, monthly reports, financial status reports and quarterly reports. The collection consists mainly of correspondence, baseline cost estimates, interoffice memoranda, conference reports, handwritten notes, diagrams, charts, drawings, specifications, manufacturers' product catalogs, articles and technical briefs pertaining to the Low-Cost Silicon Solar Array Project. Also, included are photographs and Viewgraphs that visualize the electrical components of the Silicon Solar Array. The collection is arranged in 257 file folders as originally sequenced. Materials were originally stored in hanging file folders labeled specifically by subject matter or document number. The files were stored in file cabinets, and separated in subcontractor chronological order. The original order has been retained, although internal evidence in the files indicated the collection was originally a part of a larger numeric-filing scheme, here incomplete. Most acronyms used are defined in Part L of Martha Martinez, editor, Abbreviations and Acronyms Guide, JPL 1030-30 Rev. A, May 1980. A copy is available in the repository.
