The Flickr Źiemba Image Generatr

“This is one version of how the Air Force’s proposed Manned Orbiting Laboratory might appear. Produced by Lockheed Missiles & Space Co., the artist’s cutaway concept displays (1) Gemini capsule in which two astronauts ascend to orbit and return to earth after about 30 days in space; (2) spheres for storage of fuels such as liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen; (3) living compartment (note astronaut resting); (4) air lock between compartments; (5) laboratory working compartment; (6) camera.”

8” x 9.75”. The ‘top’ border was likely trimmed at some point.

Based on it being Lockheed Missiles & Space Company and the meticulous airbrush work, this has Ludwik Źiemba’s fingerprints all over it. Either with him as the source, or one of his protégés, such as William Collopy or Anthony Saporito…maybe even something collaborative by some or all of them. Gorgeous.

MOL stuff abounds online.

“This is the horizontal version of lunar modular living and working quarters for use in our “Man On The Moon” program. Designed by scientists and engineers of the Lockheed Missiles and Space Company, each module is 18 feet in diameter. Each is fully-equipped and self-sufficient except for electrical power, which is supplied from a remote nuclear power source.”

Also associated with the image, thanks to Paul Vreede’s wonderful “SPACEX: GOLDEN ASTRONAUT” website, taken from David S. F. Portree’s superlative original blog:

“The self-contained lunar research station…showing its completely protected quarters, where a small party of lunar explorers can live and work.”

Also from Mr. Vreede’s site, courtesy the “Frank May collection”:

“A horizontal version of lunar modular living and working quarters for use in the “Man on the Moon” program. Conceived by scientists and engineers of the Lockheed Missiles & Space Company, Sunnyvale, California, each module is eighteen feet in diameter. Each is fully equipped and self-sufficient except for electrical power which is supplied from a remote nuclear power source shown in a crater at right. Solar flare protection chambers are provided at the base of the modules.”

Last, but NOT least, paraphrased from David S. F. Portree’s original blog:

“…Base modules would arrive on the moon fully outfitted with internal equipment. The permanent ELO base configuration, in place in 1975, would include five cylindrical horizontal modules on adjustable legs. Wing-like thermal radiators with removable panels for easy meteor damage repair would ensure that the air temperature inside the modules remained near 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Replaceable meteor shrouds would shield tubular crawlways linking the modules.

In a typical module, the main airlock would open onto a straight passage running the length of the lower deck. Hatches in the passageway floor would lead down into a cramped "solar flare protection cell" lined with water tanks. The lower deck would include sleep compartments for six astronauts, a galley, and environmental control systems, while the upper deck would contain a laundry, showers, a toilet, the central electrical control room, and laboratory/workshop space. Lockheed reckons that, in the moon's low gravity, the astronauts could move between the two decks without a ladder or stairs. The company also briefly considered a vertical base module configuration.
[Seen at the beginning of Mr. Portree’s blog, within Mr. Vreede’s presentation. This also explains/provides context to the previous references of “horizontal version”.]

Without belaboring the boundless goodness going on within this detailed & exquisite masterpiece, the above allusion to meteor damage is actually depicted in the image by the Astronaut on EVA, seen transferring the damaged radiator panel (puncture hole clearly visible) into the airlock for repair. Its former location evident by the gap in the panels & nearby ladder on the left rear module.

Finally, as if the above wasn’t enough, the names of the responsible parties are visible. Not surprisingly, they are William Collopy & Anthony Saporito, whom I believe to be protégés of the maestro, Ludwik Źiemba.
Furthermore, a WIN on a WIN; their respective responsibilities are included! If I’ve got it right, “DRAWN” means just that…the lines, borders & boundaries between objects depicted. “RENDERED” being the process of giving the work body, depth & perspective, through shading, coloring…and a bunch of other things I’m probably too dense, ignorant actually, to recognize. Looking back on other identified collaborative works by these three artists - and this is for only my edification - is “DRAWN”, followed by “RENDERED” the standard/conventional order of march/merit if/when not specified? It would make sense.

Bottom Line: A meticulous masterpiece.

“Traveling about on the lunar surface will require a self-sufficient vehicle capable of traversing wide crevasses and irregular terrain. The Lockheed-designed exploration vehicle could provide life support for four men and carry them on a 200-hour, 1,000-mile round trip on its 19-foot diameter wheels.”

Also:

“The first ELO landings in 1969 would deliver two cylindrical cargo modules, each containing one Lunar Traverse/Traversing Vehicle (LTV) rover. Astronauts would then land nearby in one or more Apollo Lunar Excursion Modules. They would inflate toroidal "bumpers" girdling the top and bottom of each cargo module and tip it onto its side, then would uncap the modules and drive the LTVs out onto the moon.

Lockheed called the LTV a "mobile station" for lunar exploration, but it would really constitute the ELO program's prime mover, since it would serve also to transport base modules and equipment. The LTV could cover 1000 miles in two weeks at five miles per hour. It would weigh 1700 pounds on the moon, where gravity pulls with one-sixth the force it does on Earth. Two 12-foot-diameter spherical compartments would provide living and working space for four men. Each compartment would include a 768-pound cylindrical airlock that would double as a solar flare shelter. The LTV's four 16-foot-diameter solid metal wheels - less likely than pneumatic tires to suffer damage from sharp lunar rocks, the company explains - would provide adequate traction in lunar gravity and enable the LTV to bridge crevasses up to eight feet wide. Eight bogeys would link each wheel to its sphere. Seven would be passive rollers, while the eighth would include gear teeth for transmitting power to the wheel from an electric motor inside the sphere. Steering would be through differential power application - that is, when less torque was applied to the wheels on the left side, the LTV would make a left turn.”

And, as if all of this isn’t enough, proof positive confirmation of the artist, the one & only Ludwik Źiemba, i.e. a WIN.

“This is the exploration vehicle for the U.S. “Man on the Moon” program, as conceived by scientists and engineers of the Lockheed Missiles and Space Company at Sunnyvale, California. Designed for a 600-mile round trip from a lunar base site, the vehicle would provide almost 200 hours at a destination site for exploratory purposes. The two-man vehicle, 12 feet in diameter, contains a combination air-lock and emergency compartment to provide protection against solar flare activity or meteoroid penetration. The vehicle would be propelled in a ballistic path by a rocket system using a storable propellant.”

I believe the artwork/print is prior to 1964.

Additionally, from Paul Vreede’s wonderful “SPACEX: GOLDEN ASTRONAUT” website, taken from David S. F. Portree’s superlative original blog:

“Lockheed's two-man Lunar Surface Ballistic Vehicle (LSBV) would "hop" over the lunar landscape using a nitrogen tetroxide/hydrazine rocket motor. The motor would fire briefly to lob the LSBV onto a suborbital path, then again to slow it to a gentle touchdown at a remote exploration site. Twin landing skids would cant out of way of the rocket blast in flight. The crew would ride inside a 12-foot-diameter spherical cabin topped by a silver thermal insulation "beanie cap" that would ward off heat from its pitch/roll thrusters and from harsh lunar sunlight. The LSBV, which would weigh 775 pounds on the moon, would need to carry 1250 pounds of propellants in its twin spherical side-mounted tanks to make a 200-mile round trip flight. Short trip time would be the LSBV's chief advantage over the LTV; a 200-mile LSBV flight would last 15 minutes, while a 200-mile LTV traverse would need 40 hours.”

I don’t see the two-man capability, at least not of the second occupant to be similarly seated. However, the object next to the astronaut does look like an ‘examination table’.

Finally, I’ve come across this multiple times over the decades, loved it & had always hoped to see it at higher resolution! Ta-dah!

It's exquisite & meticulous. I think it’s by Ludwik Źiemba…or one of his protégés. Although, in color, this & all of the others from this ‘series’ look really cartoonish.

Circa 1962-64 Lockheed Missiles & Space Company artist’s concept of a Saturn-Apollo nuclear “lunar logistics” vehicle, depicting simultaneous jettison of the interstage, S-II stage ignition & payload fairing separation. Striking - what I’m pretty sure to be - artistic license.

8.5" x 11".

Although unsigned, extrapolating from what I assume to be other works from this series, possibly by Anthony Saporito & J. Kramer? William Collopy? Or the man himself, Ludwik Źiemba?

A very large gorgeously rendered spacecraft – probably/possibly for Lockheed Missiles & Space Company, likely nuclear powered…certain stage(s) of it at least, possibly assembled in earth orbit, begins its journey to Mars, maybe Venus.

8.5” x 11”.

Actually, who cares what it is or where it’s going! Pause & take a moment to savor the visual feast before you…an exquisite depiction…to include the earth, the lines, the perspective, the shading, the exhaust plumes, etc., etc. The hallmarks of the enigmatic ‘maestro’ himself:

Ludwik Źiemba

“’COMMAND CENTER’ FOR DEFENSE?--Lockheed Aircraft Corp. engineers say a complicated satellite similar to this may be orbiting as an alternate U.S. defense headquarters 10 years from now. The engineers said such a satellite would be able to take charge if earth command centers were destroyed. The satellite, possibly 200 feet long, weighing 50 tons and manned by about a dozen men, would have a radiation-shielded command center in the hub and living quarters in the spheres at the ends of the arms.”

And per the actual/original Lockheed ad featuring the image:

“Will command centers based in space be an outstanding development in the ten-year span from 1967 to 1977?
The answer at Lockheed-California Company’s Spacecraft Organization is – Yes. Proof: the Spacecraft design pictured here. It reflects the maturity developed in our thinking about manned space systems.
The station—aerospace traffic control center of the 1970’s—will be assembled in orbit in a series of pieces brought together by rendezvous techniques. Included: Command center; living quarters; maintenance station; radar and infrared sensing devices; nuclear power supply; communication links with the earth and other space vehicles. As now planned, 12 people will man the vehicle. Their tour of duty will be measured in weeks.
For four years Lockheed-California Spacecraft has concentrated on the needs of man in space. Activities embrace all fields pertaining to development of complex spacecraft as well as supporting technologies…”

Above credit per January 13, 2014 postings of the image (from two different sources) by users “hesham” & “Barrington Bond” at the informative “SECRET PROJECTS FORUM” website:

www.secretprojects.co.uk/threads/us-space-station.6452/

www.secretprojects.co.uk/attachments/scan0056-copy-jpg.26...

Note the ‘sanitized’ terminology used within the add, “AEROSPACE TRAFFIC CONTROL CENTER: TIMETABLE 1970’s”. The press slug is much more ‘to the point’.
I would’ve loved to have read the classified write-up/description of this.

Finally, for my own edification, since he was producing works for Lockheed at this time...this being by the hand of Ludwik Źiemba cannot be ruled out. Or one of his protégés.

Based on other similar depictions and the paltry documentation available, as part of a nuclear/‘S-N’ Apollo-like configuration, a lunar landing craft is depicted firing its engines to slow the vehicle, in order to place it into lunar orbit prior to landing. The engine is part of the “propulsion module”, which will be jettisoned after orbit has been achieved. The separation plane with it is visible immediately aft of the lander’s landing strut attachment points & reaction control system thrusters. Note also the naval vessel-like hatch & handle of the lander, with the step-rung/handrail combination down its side.
I believe this vehicle to be unmanned...there appear to be no windows. I think Astronauts using a Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) will land near it & then utilize it as a base for extended lunar surface operations. The presence of the solar panels atop the lander would seem to support this. I suppose it could also be a logistics/supply vehicle. But then the solar panels would seem to be unnecessary. That is, unless it would/could subsequently serve as a power augmentation/generation facility? Who knows, who cares…right?

8.5" x 11".

Another stunning Ludwik Źiemba influenced work by what I believe are protégés A. Saporito & J. Kramer, on behalf of the Lockheed Missiles & Space Company. Can you imagine if the other masterpieces in this series (and/or any others) somehow miraculously survived…somewhere.
What a gallery that would be.
One can dream.

Based on other similar depictions and the paltry documentation available, as part of a nuclear/‘S-N’ Apollo-like configuration, a lunar landing craft is depicted separating from its “propulsion module” in the near vicinity of the moon. The reaction control system engines of the propulsion module are firing to ensure proper separation. Note the naval vessel-like hatch & handle of the lander, with the step-rung/handrail combination down its side.
My SWAG: I think this vehicle is unmanned...I see no windows. I assume Astronauts transported via Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) will land near it & maybe use it as a base for extended lunar surface operations. The presence of the solar panels atop the lander would seem to support this. I suppose it could also be a logistics/supply vehicle. But then the solar panels would seem to be unnecessary. That is, unless it would/could subsequently serve as a power augmentation/generation facility? Who knows.

8.5" x 11".

Yet another striking Ludwik Źiemba-influenced work by what I believe are his protégés, A. Saporito & J. Kramer, on behalf of the Lockheed Missiles & Space Company. Very evocative, with the spacecraft in lunar night, over an as yet unidentified (if actual) region of the moon…dimly illuminated by scattered 'cosmic lighting'. 😉

Based on other photographs & the paltry documentation available, I think this is a lunar landing craft separating from a nuclear third/S-IVB-like ‘S-N’ stage. Note the retrorockets firing on the S-N to ensure separation. Also, what appear to be steps/handrails down the side of the lander…although they stop well above the base of the vehicle, i.e., lunar surface. Maybe at that point the Astronaut somehow translates over/onto the landing strut…and…uhm…just slides down it, like a staircase banister/baluster. Thanks to the precise detail of the image, it certainly appears smooth enough. 😉
SWAG follows: This must be unmanned...I see no windows. I assume Astronauts transported via Lunar Excursion Module (LEM) will occupy it for extended lunar exploration operations. This would seem to be supported by the presence of what look like solar panels atop the lander.
Although I suppose it could be a logistics/supply vehicle, but then the solar panels would seem to be unnecessary. Unless it would/could subsequently serve as a power augmentation/generation facility?

8.5" x 11".

Another stunning Ludwik Źiemba influenced work by what I believe are protégés Anthony Saporito & J. Kramer. Exquisite.

“Artist’s conception shows a Voyager spacecraft passing over the surface of Titan, the largest of Saturn’s nine moons. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration plans to orbit the unmanned craft around Mars and Venus, as well as surveying Saturn’s moons.”

8.5" x 10".

The spacecraft predates the one seen here:

spaceflighthistory.blogspot.com/2019/02/the-first-voyager...

And, it’s by the Man, the Myth, the Legend…that no one really knows about, Ludwik Źiemba, with protégé(?) Anthony Saporito.

“A nuclear propelled rocket stage carrying an Apollo-type spacecraft is shown passing by the Martian moon Phobos, in this artist’s conception released by Lockheed Missiles & Space Co. The nuclear vehicle is depicted approaching Mars in preparation for exploration of the Red Planet. Deimos, the red planet’s other moon is seen in the background.
Although first landings on the moon will employ a chemical booster to carry the Apollo spacecraft from the earth to moon orbit position, the National Aeronautics & Space Administration proposes to use a nuclear stage in later missions to Mars and Venus.
Lockheed Missiles & Space Co. is prime contractor for the RIFT (Reactor-In-Flight-Test) stage, the nation’s first nuclear propelled space test vehicle. The RIFT test stage is being developed for NASA under the technical direction of the Marshall Space Flight Center. It will be used to flight test the NERVA engine being developed for NASA and the Atomic Energy Commission by Aerojet-General and Westinghouse Astronuclear Laboratory. The reactor used in the engine will be based on the KIWI reactor being developed by the AEC Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory.”

The above is taken - with great liberties on my part - from the description of what - to me - looks to be the same spacecraft in the linked photo. The hand-annotated numbering of both photos would also seem to support the association, or at the very least, the timeframe.

Another stunning work by Ludwik Źiemba, teaming up again with Anthony Saporito. You can almost reach out & feel the obvious, actual paint texture of the rugged terrain in the foreground. I assume at the time of this work, the moons of Mars were thought to be spherical, and, based on the prominent airglow, that Mars possessed a substantial atmosphere. And, last but not least, possible canals. A wonderful visual feast; grand, dramatic, of delightfully & innocently ignorant misconceptions.

“Design for a manned orbiting laboratory

Does man have a military mission in space? Are there jobs that he can do more effectively and more economically than the most elaborately instrumented unmanned satellite – or that he alone can do? Lockheed believes there are.
But while some of these missions can be simulated on the ground, others must actually be demonstrated in space.
During the past seven years, Lockheed Missiles & Space Company has worked steadily toward the goal of a practical earth-orbiting laboratory for this purpose. Practical because it would carry all the men, instruments, and supplies required for extended experiments in space. Practical because – in keeping with government policy – it would utilize an existing launch vehicle and return capsule.
The design shown above – one of the more recent evolutions of Lockheed’s concept for such a manned earth-orbiting laboratory – would be boosted into orbit by the Titan III-C and carry a Gemini capsule for return to earth.
Lockheed’s competence in the design and building of reliable spacecraft was established by the Agena, world’s only standard production-line space vehicle, which is now used in major military and civilian programs. Today Lockheed’s Man-in-Space organization is also making important contributions in bioastronautics, nuclear-powered space flight, and interplanetary vehicles.”

So, this being an "eye in the sky", I'm assuming the aft radial/peripheral apertures of the spacecraft, along with the large 'telescope-like' shaft extending from the aft, are to all facilitate observation/photography. The shape of the pod-like object within the aft base possibly a return capsule, if/as/when needed to return exposed film? I also assume the two - what look to be pivoting mirrors - permit observation/photography from the aforementioned peripheral/radial windows/viewports? Or are they also camera assemblies?

~8" x 11". The “brushed-nickel” sheen & shading of the metal surfaces has a Ludwik Źiemba look & feel to me. Actually, so does the earth, especially the land masses. How cool would that be? The time period and being Lockheed-produced would support such also.

I’m calling it - it’s The Maestro. Or maybe even one of his protégés, Anthony Saporito or William Collopy.

The huge Titan III C vehicle, towering over 150 feet into the air, movies into place on the launch pad. Missile is carried on same railroad car on which its parts were assembled.

The time has come for blatant self-promotion...my health is deteriorating more quickly than I'd like, primarily the ability to walk. Not meant to elicit any maudlin sentiment, merely stating fact, it being the impetus for this album.
As a handful of you've probably deduced, I have way too much of this stuff. The time to divest - enmasse if possible - has arrived. So, I'm compelled to attempt to generate a little 'buzz', even maybe just a couple of wing beats. I'm hoping the content of this album is a small step in that direction. I'm not kidding myself, I'm a nobody & I know this will barely create a ripple, but I have to start somewhere. And I suppose other social media platforms at some point, ugh.

There are way too many animals suffering in the world, absolutely horrifically in many instances, by the actions/inactions of humans. That's where I need to focus whatever efforts I can muster, in ways I'm not yet even sure of.
Whatever it is, money from this (hoped for) liquidation will help.

“LEM CONFIGURATION is indicated in this UTC artist’s conception of module blasting off from Moon using UTC aeration throttling…”

Above is per the image caption, as part of an article in the November 12, 1962 issue of “missiles and rockets” magazine, page 12, with the heading:

“Lunar orbit prevails…

Grumman Gets LEM Contract: Apollo spacecraft now complete; RCA, Rocketdyne reportedly in line for major subcontracts on module

by Hal Taylor”

I’ll try to refrain from hyperbole, but this artist’s concept is a unicorn if ever there was one. I’ve seen it less than a handful of times my entire life, the last time being so long ago I can’t even begin to recall. I kid you not, coming across it again brought back the same child-like wonder & excitement - yes excitement – that I had on those rare previous occasions so long ago. It was/is so damned cool, so exquisitely detailed (which is only now evident), and so exotic, alien & classically retro sci-fi in appearance.
Not surprisingly, fittingly actually, it’s by the enigmatic maestro himself, Ludwik Źiemba.

This work would seem to also support Mr. Źiemba’s employment by/contract with, United Technology Corporation, either prior to or concurrently? with Lockheed Aircraft Company.

United Technology Center (UTC) artist’s concept depicting possible Titan III/III-C solid rocket motor segments being assembled and prepared for transport & possible stacking.

The caption/description associated with the image, from the United Aircraft (UA) "1963 Pictorial Report":

"Assembly of the Titan IIIC, the Air Force's standardized space launch vehicle, will be carried out in facilities close to the launch site. Solid propellant, five-segment boosters, each delivering more than a million pounds of thrust, are being developed by United Technology Center. Here, aft closures and nozzles are mated as a first step in the rocket's construction. The aft closure-nozzle assembly (left) is ready for transfer to a nearby assembly building."

The superior, distinctive & detailed artwork is by none other than Ludwik Źiemba, who seems to have also been employed/contracted by UTC ca. 1962/63. Apparently/possibly concurrently with Lockheed Aircraft Company. Would that’ve been acceptable back then?

Excellent informative reading on the evolution & history of United Technology Corporation/Center:

All kinds of activity in lunar orbit.

A visual feast, possibly rendered by either Ludwik Źiemba, William Collopy or Anthony Saporito, or some combination thereof.
By extrapolation of other works, possibly on behalf of Lockheed Missiles & Space Company.

“Looking to the establishment of lunar base sites, Lockheed scientists and engineers…a module handling device (foreground). This is delivered to the moon, completely assembled and fueled -- ready for immediate use. Here, the handling device is shown as it is driven out of the capsule, after landing on the moon. The empty capsules are then taken to lunar base to serve as service depots and garages. They are 20 feet in diameter. In the background (right) is a handling vehicle that has just landed.”

The brilliant work of Ludwik Źiemba, and/or William Collopy/Anthony Saporito, or some combination there of.

I think the image to be earlier than the stamped date.
