Biographical Note
Frank Curtis Michel was born June 5, 1934, in La Crosse, Wisconsin. He
attended high school in Sacramento, California, and went on to receive a
Bachelor of Science degree from California Institute of Technology in 1955,
graduating with honors. After working briefly as an engineer, he served in the
United States Air Force as a pilot from 1955 to 1958.
Michel then returned to California Institute of Technology, where be
received a Ph.D. in physics in 1962. He continued as a Research Fellow in
Physics at the Institute until April, 1963 when he accepted a position as
assistant professor in the newly established Space Science Department at the
Rice Institute (now Rice University) in Houston, Texas.
Michel's entry into the field of space physics proved timely, for a
national effort was underway to accelerate scientific research programs needed
in the nation's space endeavors. Two years earlier, President John F. Kennedy
had enunciated a national goal to place a man on the moon before the end of the
decade. Academic programs useful to the projected Apollo spaceflights were thus
undergoing intense evaluation by the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) together with the National Academy of Sciences and with
other interested federal agencies, such as the National Science Foundation and
the Department of Defense.
A Space Science Summer Study, conducted in 1962 and involving more than
one hundred scientists from universities, private research organizations,
industry, and the government recognized the potential for scientific
investigation which could be carried out on manned missions of NASA's Apollo
spacecraft. They proposed establishment of a program for training scientists as
astronauts to participate in the Apollo flights and in later space
programs.
The following year, specific recommendations for such a program were
presented to Congress by the Space Science Board, an arm of the National
Academy of Sciences which served as the main liaison between NASA and the
American scientific community. The Board's Ad Hoc Committee on Scientific
Qualifications of Scientist-Astronauts began work in May, 1964, to establish
scientific criteria for applicants.
Michel's qualifications as a scientist who was also an experienced pilot
made him a likely candidate for such a program, and he was attracted by the
possibility of combining his expertise and special interest in solar winds with
his desire to take part in space flight. His interest was shared by Dr.
Alexander J. Dessler, director of Rice's Department of Space Science, who was
an early supporter of the proposed Scientist-Astronaut program. Furthermore,
Rice's Space Science Department had a close relationship with NASA's Manned
Spacecraft Center near Houston (MSC, later Johnson Space Center). Departmental
research projects, funded in part from NASA grants, were of direct benefit to
NASA's programs, and MSC personnel were among those coming to Rice for graduate
training.
Michael was thus in a fortunate position to take advantage of these new
developments. When NASA officially established the Scientist-Astronaut program
and began recruiting in October, 1964 Michel applied and was one of six
accepted into the first group in June, 1965.
As a Scientist-Astronaut Michel spent six months in orientation training
at MSC (he was already a qualified pilot and thus exempt from basic flight
training). His work assignment was primarily to plan for the Apollo
Applications Program (AAP, later known as the Skylab program). In September,
1966, Michel was appointed to monitor progress on the Apollo Telescope Mount
project (ATM), which involved working with specialists at the Marshall Space
Flight Center. At various periods he also served on working groups concerned
with Lunar Atmospheres, Manned Space Science Atmospherics, and Planetary
Atmospheres. In addition to these duties, Michel participated in ongoing
astronaut training and in maintaining his flight proficiency as a potential
flight crew member.
In 1967, NASA established a review procedure to ensure that the
scientist-astronauts had time for study and research in order to maintain
proficiency in their particular areas. Although officially one day a week and
one week a month were to be set aside for this purpose, it proved difficult in
some cases to achieve this. Over a period of time Michel was among those
concerned about being able to meet requirements as an astronaut along with
those of a scientist.
When it became apparent in 1967 that budget problems (caused in part by
the war in Vietnam) would decrease the number of Apollo flights and thus the
possibility for assignment to one of the flight crews, Michel requested and was
granted a year's leave of absence to return to Rice in the fall of 1968 to
teach and to pursue research. Michel resigned from NASA in August, 1969, when
opportunities for space flight continued to appear unlikely and the time
commitment for academic interests made remaining in the space program
difficult.
Scope and Contents
The F. Curtis Michel Scientist-Astronaut Papers consist of 68 linear
feet of material organized into two series, Academic Papers (1951-1979) and
NASA Papers (c. 1963-1981). The collection includes correspondence, memos,
technical handbooks, training manuals, course and seminar notes, photographs,
and a great variety of ephemera, including a flight jacket with NASA emblem.
Extensive scientific research material in the collection (seminar notes,
scholarly publications, and such) provide a good overview of contributions from
the academic community to NASA's various endeavors. The collection has interest
not only for the extensive material concerning Michel's work in the
Scientist-Astronaut program, but also for glimpses into the administrative
workings of NASA and the tensions between various groups involved with the
space program. Michel's candid observations and reflections both during his
years as an astronaut and after his resignation offer an unusual look at a
complex institution and the gifted individuals whose lives were caught up in
it.
Series I: Academic Papers contains material
from Michel's days as a graduate student in physics at California Institute of
Technology and correspondence and research materials pertaining to his academic
position at Rice University. Of particular interest is the early correspondence
between Michel and officials at NASA concerning his interest in and later
application to the Scientist-Astronaut Program. A number of newspaper clippings
from 1963 concerning plans for the program and Michel's interest in it are also
helpful in documenting the new directions underway in the national space effort
toward lunar flight and research.
Of equal interest is material from the period following Michel's
resignation in August, 1965. Correspondence and clippings reveal an intense
ongoing critique of manned space flight programs, with debate between members
of the scientific community and NASA over how to balance the demands of
scientific research with those of technical flight proficiency.
Series II: NASA Papers, is divided into
seventeen sub-series. The Correspondence sub-series consists of correspondence
about the Scientist-Astronaut Program, personal correspondence, letters to and
from the public, and administrative and travel material. The sub-series is
especially valuable in documenting Michel's experience with NASA, including his
application for admission to the Scientist-Astronaut Program, astronaut work
assignments and training, pertinent clippings about NASA, early doubts about
continuing in the program, and factors leading to his resignation in 1969. The
last three folders contain manuscript notes for a book discussing his NASA
experiences, and also his response to a Space Program Advisory Council study of
the Scientist-Astronaut program, which was conducted in 1974-75, accompanied by
a copy of the resulting report.
Astronaut Training and Familiarization gives a good overview of the many
technical and scientific areas in which an astronaut was expected to develop
proficiency. Areas included geology and astronomy, Gemini Program
familiarization, flight training, and the Apollo Program.
The Gemini Program, Apollo Program, Surveyor Program, and Space Station
sub-series include material from four NASA programs, with good coverage of
experiments conducted and samplings of scientific publications contributing to
these programs, while the Technical and Scientific Publications gives an idea
of the variety of material produced between 1950 and 1970 relating to space
research.
Included in the Oversize Materials is a commemorative album, large
photographs, and assorted newspapers and publications. Photographs of the
various groups of astronauts are found in the Photograph sub-series, including
Group 4, Michel's group of Scientist-Astronauts, and a number of photographs of
Michel in his role as an astronaut. Geologic scenes and various technical
subjects make up the remainder of the sub-series, along with an astronaut
training film.
The final subseries, Memorabilia, contains a wide variety of material
collected by Michel during his affiliation with NASA. Boxes 67 and 68 hold
commemorative plaques, medallions and insignia, certificates, postal envelopes,
launch invitations, calendars, and assorted other items.
ArrangementFolder titles have been retained where assigned
by Dr. Michel; otherwise, material has been organized within similar groupings
and placed in chronological or alphabetical order, with appropriate titles
assigned to folders.
