This informational film titled “Manned Space Flight: Apollo/ Saturn The Use for Science and Applications” was made by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) sometime in the late 1960s or 1970s. The film chronicles NASA’s then mission of expanding upon the Apollo Saturn space vehicle technologies for further space explorations in Earth’s orbit, the Moon’s orbit, and the Moon’s surface. The committee of scientists led by Dr. Charles H. Townes sought to bridge the gap between space technology from the 1960s to that of the 1970s and beyond. (Charles Townes was the experimental physicist who invented the laser – now indispensable in science, technology, and medicine. Townes received the 1964 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work. More than a dozen subsequent Nobel Prizes have depended on the existence of lasers.)
