NASA Council Collection, 1977-1980.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/733100863

As Director of JPL, Bruce Murray was a member of the NASA Council. The collection is comprised of correspondence, copies of Viewgraphs, meeting minutes, and other materials relating to the NASA Council and meetings of the NASA Center Directors. The NASA Council often met jointly with the NASA Center Directors, since there was considerable overlap in membership with both groups. The meeting records of the NASA Council included a list of attendees, agenda, highlights, issues and actions. The meetings that are represented in the collection are mainly concerned with the formulation of the NASA Five-Year Plan, a method of intermediate-range planning by the agency. Included in the collection are copies of Viewgraphs presented at the NASA Council Five-Year Plan Briefing on April 20, 1979. The briefings included Spacelab Payload Program, by Jesse W. Moore of the NASA Office of Space Science, and Science and Applications Space Platforms, by various individuals from the NASA Office of Space Science, Office of Space Tracking and Data Systems, and Office of Aeronautics and Space Technology. Copies of Viewgraphs of a presentation made by the Environmental Observation Division at the NASA Council Briefing on May 18, 1979 are also in the collection. A copy of a rough draft of the JPL Performance Evaluation for Fiscal Year 1979, dated December 5, 1979, is also present in the collection.
