I and and fellow collector Mark Wells have completed scanning of what will hopefully be the first of many publications on loan from the USSRC Von Braun collection as that institution pushes to digitize its holdings (this file as well as other scanned material will ultimately be made available online by the University of Alabama).

This first document scanned - IBM Saturn IB/V Instrument Unit Technical Manual - IU System Description And Component Data is the bible on the IU and contains photographs, diagrams and descriptions of every component installed in the Instrument Unit. There is nothing analogous in the public domain.

The completed scan of 234 pages (25mb) can be downloaded from collectSPACE.

This will help the people doing the Apollo Sim for the Orbiter Space Simulator.
