Over the last few days, I have been collecting material to start phase 1 of the Apollo Simulation Project (I think I need a better name…), which is the research phase. I found a bunch of high-res flight manuals and flight plans, which I had printed at Kinkos. They are each more than 300 pages, so they provide quite the wealth of information.
In addition, after quite the adventure, I got a library card at the Cupertino Public Library, and then proceeded to check out some books on the physics surrounding rocket flight, particularly in the Apollo missions. There is a lot to learn!
