Apollo 12 was launched into a thunderstorm despite Manned Space Flight Center Launch Mission Rule 1-404, which stated: The vehicle will not be launched when its flight path will carry it through a cumulonimbus (thunderstorm) cloud formation. Where could I find the list of other mission rules. I assume there are at least 403 more.  My searches have found mostly flight mission rules (e.g. here) but not the launch ones. |

Apollo 12 did not launch into a thunderstorm nor did it break any launch commit criteria. |

Slight change of subject but, does any cSer know if any Gemini mission rules have been digitized and posted? I really would like to read the Gemini 8 mission rules. |

Robert, you can view here my copy of the Apollo 12 Launch Mission Rules if that is what you were looking for. |

Thanks Andy - this is exactly what I'm looking for. Do you have PDFs for the other missions too? Thanks! |

No Robert, that is the only one I have for Launch Mission Rules.The only other Mission Rule document I have that does not appear to be available online, is the Apollo 13 Flight Mission Rules that was used by Don Puddy when he was the LM Support guy in SPAN for 13. However, it is incomplete, mainly covering the Mission Rule Summaries and the LM chapters (20 to 27). |
