METEROIDS AS A POSSIBLE HAZARD TO SPACE VEHICLE OPERATIONS: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY

Abstract

A bibliography is presented of meteoroids as a possible hazard to space vehicle operations. Citations to meteors and other interplanetary debris have been included when the material was of relevance to meteoroids as well. Citations to combined environmental parameters affecting the reliability of space vehicles in flight have also been included when meteoroids constituted one of the parameters. The period covered is from 1956 through 1962, with a few earlier citations.
