To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.

[edit] Fair Use

I believe this to be fair use as the diagram was produced by Rockwell as part of a NASA study under contract to NASA's Langley Research Center. In addition, these reports are the only known documentation of these plans, which are of historical interest as examples of NASA's research concerning continued manned flights to the Moon before the Apollo program was cancelled. Finally, NASA has made the reports freely available on the web.

Originally I thought it was covered under the general NASA rule, but Rockwell may have the copyright... delete it if this is a problem.
