[sci.space] Availability of the Ames SPACE archives

yee@trident.arc.nasa.gov (Peter E. Yee) (01/24/91)

I'm pleased to announce that the SPACE archives, located on ames.arc.nasa.gov
are once again available via e-mail service.  To access the archives, send
a letter to archive-server@ames.arc.nasa.gov (or ames!archive-server).  In
the subject of your letter (or in the body), use commands like:

send SPACE Index
send SPACE SHUTTLE/ss01.23.91.

The capitalization of the subdirectory names is important.  All are in caps.
The following is a list of the subdirectories that are currently available:

APOLLO          GIOTTO          MANIFEST        PRESS.KIT       ULYSSES
ASTRO           HEADLINE.NEWS   MARS.ROVER      PRESS.RELEASE   VICAR
BBXRT           HST             MCSR            PROGRAMS        VOYAGER
COBE            HUT             MISC            RADIO           WEATHER
CONTRACT        IMDISP          NTE             SHUTTLE         WUPPE
CRAF            OSR             SPACE.CLASSROOM FRR             PAYLOAD.STATUS
SPACELINK       GALILEO         LAUNCH.ADVISORY PEGASUS
GIF             MAGELLAN        PIONEER         UIT

The GIF directory contains files in GIF format.  A few have been uuencoded so
that they be mailed, but unfortunately the majority will not survive mailing.
This will be rectified in the future.  The VICAR directory has two Magellan
images in VICAR format.  A PC program capable of displaying these files is
found in the IMDISP directory, although it is still a binary file (ZIP format)
and so it is not suitable for mailing at this time.

Any problems with the archive server should be reported to me as soon as
possible.

And as always, the archives are also available via anonymous ftp to
ames (128.102.18.3).  Directory is /pub/SPACE.
