Original set of Master Schematics from Grumman Aerospace titled, “Space Shuttle Program Task Breakdown and Manpower Estimate Chart”, as developed by Grumman for NASA as part of the Space Shuttle Development Contracts in 1972. Grumman became a key player in the space technology as the company designed and built the Apollo Lunar Module that was used for the moon landing. In the Post-Apollo era, NASA issued a development contract to Grumman under its new Space Shuttle program to design and develop an Orbiter vehicle which could be reused on multiple missions. These extremely rare original schematics are part of the master plans drafted by Grumman under the NASA development contracts. The plans are drafted on translucent polyester/plastic drafting film which was a common medium used for creating master drafting documents during this period.
