NASSP was originally developed by Jean-Luc Rocca-Serra, who released the source code to version 4.x. Mark Grant then rewrote the code as C++, added an initial C++ implementation of the Apollo Guidance Computer, and replaced the control panel bitmaps with new ones from P64. He subsequently released 'NASSP COSTAM' and a derivative which provided basic support for the Virtual AGC software.

==Supported spacecraft==
  
−
As there is no definitive list of functionality changes between NASSP versions, many of these changes have been deduced from release documentation and test-flying of versions which are still available for download.
+
NASSP 7.0 supports a number of spacecraft.
  
−
====Early NASSP====
+
==='Apollo to Venus' Wet Workshop test===
  
−
Versions prior to 3.0 seem to be unavailable on the web. If anyone has a copy and can update this and/or add screenshots, please do so, or at least let us know what the differences are.
 
  
−
====NASSP 3.x====
+
[[Image:Apollo-eyeballs-out.jpg|thumb|right|'Wet Workshop' test SIVB burn]]
−
 
 
−
* Saturn 1b and ASTP support.
 
−
* Rewritten to use Orbiter docking support.
 
−
 
 
−
NASSP 3.0 still runs under Orbiter 2006, with no modifications required.
 
  
−
====NASSP 4.x====
+
NASA's Manned Venus Flyby plans using Apollo technology would have used an SIVB stage to launch a three-man crew towards Venus, after which they would vent remaining fuel from the SIVB, extend solar panels and live in it as a Skylab-style space station. They would conduct generalised astronomical and zero-gravity experiments for most of their trip, and for a few days around the flyby they would conduct detailed observations of Venus.
  
−
* Control Panel for both Saturn V and Saturn 1b.
+
NASSP 7.0 includes a simulation of the first test phase, in which the astronauts would use the SIVB to raise their orbit for a test of the 'wet workshop' of up to one month in duration.  
−
* LEM Panel available.
 
−
* Engine Gimbal control for all rocket stages, Service module and LEM.
 
−
* Totally rewritten Autopilot (a semi auto mode is available for engine control only).
 
−
* New Saturn V and Saturn 1b meshes.
 
−
* Optional high-res Saturn V and Saturn 1b meshes.
 
−
* Docking system enhancement etc...
 
  
−
====NASSP 5.x====
+
===Command/Service Module===
  
−
[[Image:NASSP5-ControlPanelSmall.jpg|thumb|right|NASSP 5.0 control panel]]
+
NASSP simulates the Block II Command/Service Module, providing a home and life support for the astronauts in space.
−
 
 
−
* New CSM and LEM meshes. Only high-res meshes supported for the Saturn 1b and Saturn V.
 
−
* New control panels with illumination support from P64.
 
−
* Skylab.
 
−
* Exhaust particle streams.
 
−
* New exhaust textures.
 
−
* C++ AGC implementation for launch and TLI.
 
−
* Rewritten in C++, to eliminate bugs and crashes due to global variable use.
 
−
* Revised launch autopilot for increased accuracy.
 
−
* Same functionality level for Saturn V and Saturn 1b.
 
−
* NASSP-specific solar system configuration.
 
−
 
 
−
NASSP 5.x does not currently run under Orbiter 2006 as its Solar System files are incompatible with the new Orbiter format. It could probably be made to run with some changes to the config files.
 
−
 
 
−
As an extension to NASSP Rodion M. Herrera and others did the NEP (NASSP Enhancement Pack), which contains lunar landing scenarios and mission-specific astronauts etc. A modified NEP version is still available for Project Apollo - NASSP 6.4.3.
 
−
 
 
−
Also, there was an experimental Virtual AGC integration add-on called Virtual Apollo based on Mark Grant's NASSP_COSTAM v2. Meanwhile, it's obsolete and replaced by the Virtual AGC mode in Project Apollo - NASSP. The [http://nassp.sourceforge.net/user/virtualapollo/ documentation] is still online.

−
=== NCPP 1.0 ===
 
−
 
 
−
NCPP (NASSP Complete Panel Project) was done by Matthias and Fabian Müller based on NASSP 5.2 and was the first version with realistic panels. Compared to the panels in the 7.0 beta, which are done by Matthias and Fabian Müller, too, it was only a beginning, of course.
 
−
 
 
−
* New CSM and LM control panel
 
−
 
 
−
====Project Apollo - NASSP 6.x====
 
−
 
 
−
At the beginning of 2005 Jean-Luc Rocca-Serra wasn't able to further develop NASSP and the add-on began to scatter a little bit. Additionally to NASSP 5.2 and NEP 1.0 meanwhile, there was NCPP 1.0 and later on NASSP 6.1, which was an enhancement/fix of NCPP 1.0 for Orbiter 2005. Because all these add-ons depended on each other, at the worst time the user needed to install 7 or 8 files from 3 sites in a certain order. It was so weird that Dan Stephan wrote a quite adequate article about that on his site: "Houston, this add-on has a problem..."
 
−
 
 
−
At that point, some people (like Mark Grant, Matthias Müller, etc.) decided to move NASSP to SourceForge as a GNU GPL licensed open source project to save NASSP from vanishing completely and to make team development possible. At that point we wanted to rename the add-on to the more intuitive name "Project Apollo", but this project name wasn't available at SourceForge so we made a compromise and took NASSP as project "unix name" (SourceForge term for the unique project name used for URLs etc.) and "Project Apollo - NASSP" as project title and bundled all these components together for the 6.3 release.
 
−

==Supported Spacecraft==
 
−
 
 
−
Project Apollo for Orbiter 1.0/NASSP 7.0 supports a number of spacecraft. Most are historical spacecraft used in the Apollo program, but some are proposed post-Apollo designs which never flew in the real world.
 
−
 
 
−
===Command and service module===
 
−
[[Image:NASSP7CSMInOrbitSmall.jpg|thumb|right|NASSP 7.0 CSM in Earth orbit]]
 
−
NASSP simulates the Block II Command and service module, providing a home and life support for the astronauts in space.
 
−
 
 
−
The CM was the nerve center of the Apollo spacecraft, as it functioned as primary control and navigation platform during the missions.  It housed the highly-advanced (for the 1960s) Apollo Guidance Computer, as well as all the systems the astronauts would need to safely re-enter earth's atmosphere.
 
−
 
 
−
The Service Module contained the systems that were vital for the extended stay of up to 10 days in space. This included fuel cells to provide power and water, as well as radiators to keep the internal systems cool. Also housed in the service module were the primary propulsion systems, including the RCS maneuverability thrusters and the SPS, used for major course corrections. In later Apollo lunar missions, this versatile component contained a SIM Bay for the additional scientific study of the lunar surface the space surrounding our nearest celestial neighbor.
 
−
 
 
−
As the core of the Apollo hardware, the CSM is a high priority for NASSP development. It has received a complete and ongoing overhaul for NASSP 7.0, complete with new graphics, meshes, and systems simulations.
 
  
 
===Lunar Module===

[[Image:NASSP7LEMOnMoonSmall.jpg|thumb|right|NASSP 7.0 LEM on the Moon]]
 
−
 
 
−
The lower Descent Stage carried the large Descent Engine, fuel for the landing, and batteries and supplies required for the stay on the Moon. It also carried a limited amount of cargo, including, on the later flights, the Lunar Rover. Its final role was to act as a launch pad for the Ascent Stage when the lunar landing phase was complete and they flew back to dock with the CSM in orbit.
 
−
 
 
−
The upper Ascent Stage provided living quarters for the crew while on the Moon, controls for the landing and ascent, and the smaller Ascent Engine and fuel to carry them into orbit. The Ascent Stage could dock with the CSM itself, but in normal circumstances the docking was flown by the more maneuvrable CSM.
 
−
 
 
−
Whereas the CSM was the brain and body, the LM was the heart of the Apollo Program.  A high priority has been placed on the development of the LM for NASSP.  It is currently in line for new graphics and meshes.  Work is already underway on its internal systems.
 
  
 
===Lunar Rover===

−
[[Image:NASSP7LRVOnMoon.jpg|thumb|right|Driving the NASSP 7.0 Lunar Rover]]
+
Electrically-powered rover used by the astronauts to drive around the lunar surface.
−
 
 
−
The Lunar Rover was a battery-driven electrically-powered vehicle used by the astronauts to drive around the lunar surface. While hardly a Ferrari, it allowed the astronauts to travel longer distances much faster than they could on foot.
 
−
 
 
−
The LRV was folded up in the side of the LEM during the flight, and removed and assembled by the astronauts after landing on the lunar surface. When the lunar exploration was complete, the LRV camera was also used to film the launch of the LEM Ascent Stage carrying the astronauts back to the CSM (though this isn't currently simulated in NASSP).
 
−
 
 
−
NASSP's LRV has been overhauled with the inclusion of a VC mesh and several working instruments. New animations and more realistic hardware simulation (e.g. power usage for the batteries) are on the drawing board.
 
  
 
===Saturn V===
 
===Saturn V===
  
−
The three-stage launcher used to launch command and service module and Lunar Module towards the Moon. This was used to launch Apollos 8 through 17.  It is arguably the most powerful rocket ever flown into space.

−
 
 
−
The Saturn V in NASSP is a highly detailed and increasingly more realistic machine.  Current development is minimal, as it has already reached a high level of detail and accuracy.
 
−
 
 
−
===Saturn IB===
 
−
 
 
−
The two-stage launcher used to launch a Command/Service Module into Earth orbit. This was used for Apollo 7, the Skylab flights, and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project flight.  Recent studies have shown that the Saturn IB may have been one of the most cost-effective boosters in lbs per dollar.
 
−
 
 
−
Like the Saturn V, NASSP's Saturn IB is highly detailed and extremely accurate.  As a result, it is not a high priority at this time.
 
−
 
 
−
===ASTP Docking Module===
 
−
 
 
−
Although rather limited as a spacecraft in its own right, the Apollo-Soyuz Test Program Docking Module allows an Apollo command and service module to dock with a Russian Soyuz spacecraft in orbit and transfer crew between them.  The Docking Module is carried into orbit as cargo on a Saturn 1B, in the same way, that the Lunar Module is carried as cargo on a Saturn V.
 
−
 
 
−
Development on the Docking Module is currently stalled as work proceeds on higher-priority items, however, it is open to further development and will more likely than not see its share of upgrades.

===Saturn 1b===
  
−
[[Image:Apollo-eyeballs-out.jpg|thumb|right|'Wet Workshop' test SIVB burn]]

Two-stage launcher used to launch a Command/Service Module into Earth orbit. This was used for Apollo 7, the Skylab flights, and the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project flight.

−
NASA's Manned Venus Flyby plans using Apollo technology would have used an SIVB stage to launch a three-man crew towards Venus, after which they would vent remaining fuel from the SIVB, extend solar panels, and live in it as a Skylab-style space station. They would conduct generalized astronomical and zero-gravity experiments for most of their trip, and for a few days around the flyby, they would conduct detailed observations of Venus.
 
−
 
 
−
NASSP 7.0 includes a simulation of the first test phase, in which the astronauts would use the SIVB to raise their orbit for a test of the 'wet workshop' of up to one month in duration. Rather than solar panels, the test phase uses batteries in the SIVB stage to provide power to supplement the Service Module fuel cells and conserve consumables in the Service Module for the return to Earth.
 
−
 
 
−
Although not a historically real mission, this proposal from the Apollo Applications Program is an intriguing and exciting 'fictional' mission.  NASSP is developing this capability both as a historical curiosity and as research/exploration into the feasibility of such a concept.

The two-stage launcher used in a similar manner to the Saturn 1b to launch a Command/Service Module and larger payload into Earth orbit: essentially a cut-down Saturn V with no second stage, mounting an SIVB stage directly on top of the S1C first stage. The S1C also had one engine removed, as the five-engine stage produced too much thrust and would have caused problems with excessive dynamic pressure during launch.

−
The primary benefit of the INT-20 was a payload capacity about half-way between the Saturn 1b and Saturn V without the cost of creating a new launcher from scratch: the stages were close enough in design that they could be built on the same production line as the Saturn V stages. A three-engine version with a lower payload was also studied but isn't simulated in NASSP.
