In the 1985 to 1986 time frame, I used to receive a publication called World Spaceflight News. It was published by an individual and it was put out before each shuttle flight. It would include a preview of each mission, with illustrations fro the mission's press kit and the crew activity plan. Does anyone else remember that publication, who put it out and how long it lasted for? |

I remember the shuttle preview issues and the post-flight summaries. The preview issues included the mission flight plan. |

Vaguely remember that. Wasn't it printed by someone out in Hawaii? May be thinking of a different short-lived publication from that era. |

I was subscribed to that publication at that time. I think it was published in New Jersey. I don't think I have any surviving copies.Along the same lines, I have 11 issues of STS Mission Profiles, January 1992 to July 1993. It was a better done publication with color photos and binding, rather than being stapled together at the upper left corner. Inside were post flight and pre-flight misson descriptions and other space related news. I don't know how long they were around after the July '93 issue. |

Sewell, New Jersey. I think the publication ran from the early '80s to the late '90s. |
