With the launch of the mission to Psyche, quite a few booklets about the mission have been published. Has anyone in the cS fraternity read any of these, and can any be recommended?

Booklets? Sounds like the good old days of NASA printed publications including the series of reports on each Apollo mission, and the JPL booklets on Ranger, Surveyor, Mariner, Voyager, etc. Somehow the "print-your-own" options for modern missions don't have the same appeal (or collectability!)

Who prints them?

And as far as "collecting", I prefer soft copy. The information (the whole point of the document for existing) is more accessible. I have been selling or giving away my collection once I scan or obtain a soft copy version of a document. I buy documents to scan with the intent of reselling or giving to a museum.

A lot of these booklets (between 37 and 106 pages long), and advertised on Amazon, seem to be independently published.

All times are CT (US)
