    Interesting image of the proposed B9U fly-back booster along with the autographed names of astronauts Don Peterson, Gordon Fullerton, Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, Tom Stafford, Buzz Aldrin, Karol Bobko, and Hank Hartsfield. Most of the names correspond with astronauts identified in photographs in this photostream examining the mock-up Convair/General Dynamics B9U cockpit. Presumably, these autographs were made at that time. Here are Aldrin, Stafford, and Lovell in the B9U cockpit mock-up: Gordon Fullerton in the B9U mock-up: Aldrin, Lovell, and Swigert looking at potential B9U instrument panel configurations: Aldrin and Hartsfield in the B9U mock-up:

    This is a mock-up of the forward section of the proposed General Dynamics/Convair B9U fly-back booster which would launch the North American NAR-161 Space Shuttle proposal into orbit.
