Morris W. Beck-US Manned Space Flight-Astronaut
Recovery Ship Covers
The following photos represent the cachets for each
of the US manned space flights. Beck produced covers for
Mercury, Gemini, Apollo and Skylab flights starting with the MA-7
flight. From 1962 to 1975
Beck produced over 275 different covers for the US space flights. These
space covers are probably the most sought after of Beck's
entire series.
The photos below show the
different designs used for each mission.
Also shown are the official
NASA Mission Patches.

Project Mercury
Project Mercury MA-7
Only one such cover has been observed from the Berry
and it was sold by a German dealer for $129.76 in December 2019.
Text below has a slight revision 12/2019 based on
new information
Project Mercury, Aurora 7, MA-7, May 24,1962.
M. Scott Carpenter. Prime Recovery Ship (PRS) was USS Intrepid,
but USS John R Pierce picked up the capsule.
The covers shown here are VERY hard to find. We have never seen
the actual Pierce covers. The USS Pierce single-color scan above is courtesy
of Ray Cartier as shown in his book. The USS English cover is
courtesy of Eddie Bizub. The Berry cover was sold on eBay in
December 2019 for $129.76.
Beck's cachet was printed in three colors and is similar in design to Beck
MA-8, B77-79. The cachet border and text are different between the
MA-7 and MA-8 covers.
The MA-7 cover is not considered to be part of the
1000 cover series.
The USS English cover is a mystery because we don't
know the story about how it came to be. Did Mr. Beck send the
cover to the USS English for postmarking? Did someone on the USS
Pierce send the cover to the USS English? How many did Mr. Beck
make? We just don't know. In 2005, we asked Mr. Beck
these questions, but he couldn't remember the specifics. He passed
away in 2011.
If you have covers for other ships with the
printed Beck MA-7 cachet, please send us a scan for this site.
Project Mercury MA-8
Project Mercury, Sigma 7, MA-8, October 3, 1962
Walter Schirra, Jr. Prime Recovery Ship (PRS) was USS Kearsarge.
Beck had a few covers for previous events, but not available to
collectors. The design shown here for covers number 77-79 was part
of the 1000 cover series. Beck produced MA-8 covers only for three
secondary ships, not USS Kearsarge, the Prime Recovery Ship.

Apollo Saturn Rocket AS201, February 26, 1966
Unmanned. Heat shield test. Recovered by USS Boxer LPH-4.
AS-204 was renamed to Apollo 1 in honor of the 3
astronauts that died in the pad fire during a test. A total of 8 covers
were prepared, 4 for the Pacific and 4 for the Atlantic fleets.
The Pacific covers (B712-715) were never returned. That is why we
show only the Atlantic cachet design above. B716-720 cachets were
held and postmarked for the Apollo 4/AS-501 event and some were
postmarked on the Apollo 7 event.

(Reuters Health) - In a new study, team drugstore black friday sale from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention tells doctors to avoid telling patients that people who drink a Kamagra oral jelly kaufen mit kreditkarte certain amount of alcohol may be more prone to die of some forms cancer.
Though the report is encouraging, researchers did say their study only includes studies published after 1992 and that the American Cancer Society and other groups have previously called for more research to be done.
Dr. Jeffrey Leuchter, a CDC epidemiologist who led the team, cautioned that people should not take the study findings as a reason to cut down on their alcohol intake. "People need to know that drinking a glass of wine, or 12 ounces liquor, two to four beers can still lead to benefits," Leuchter told Reuters Health.
Though the team's report did not examine how much alcohol might be linked to certain cancers individually, it's already known that certain cancers are more likely to develop in individuals who are already obese.
In the new study, researchers looked for evidence of an association between wine consumption and an increased risk of lung, prostate, buy valtrex in mexico colorectal and kidney cancers. For each additional 10 standard drinks of wine per day, there was a 6.4 percent increased risk of developing one type cancer overall and 4.4 percent for cancers of the heart, esophagus, bile duct, liver and lung.
For each additional 10 standard drinks of liquor per day, there was a 13.3 percent increase in overall risk of lung cancers and a 13.4 percent increased risk of prostate cancer and colorectal mortality bladder mortality.
Leuchter pointed out that there's no evidence alcohol consumption causes the diseases being studied, but he said it does suggest that some people who drink alcohol might be more prone to cancer-related death than their non-drinking counterparts.
To investigate this idea, Leuchter and colleagues tracked 1.6 million people whose deaths were linked to cancer using data from the National Death Index between 1988 and 2003. The researchers also looked at death notices from 1992 to 1998 and took account of information about smoking habits and alcohol consumption from the American Cancer Society's national databases. For each specific type of cancer, they examined the relationships.

The feat, performed a lab for only the third time and by a pair of high school students, could pave the way for creation of ultra-small viruses that evade immune systems and infect cells.
The results, reported in Nature Biotechnology, may also shed some light on human disease. Until recently, scientists knew the structure of many protein families, even the most common ones. But what they didn't know until now has been difficult to grasp in full context: the structure of DNA-protein complex.
"What we've really done by looking at this structure is learn a lot about how DNA proteins form, and they communicate," says Mark A. Koonin, a theoretical biologist at the Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, California, who was not involved in the research. "Theoretical physics allows us to understand the DNA in a much more intimate way than what anyone has ever thought Levitra kaufen in apotheke before."
The results, Azeem Faisal recalls, were "pretty dramatic."
A single molecule of DNA, the hereditary material that forms all of buy valtrex without insurance life on earth, consists four bases: adenine, cytosine, guanine, and thymine. The backbone stretches from adenine (A) to cytosine (C), and buy valtrex 500mg a single base is flanked from one end to the other by several strands of four adjacent adenine residues. The "DNA helix," or top, is the structure where adenine bases bind to one another.
On an average strand, the two strands of base are roughly arranged with three adenine residues separating them, as shown below in an image from older research paper:
Each base pair has four "strands" attached to it; these form tiny rings called "chains," which come together in complex combinations to form the Oxford online pharmacy viagra DNA helix. Most of time, this helix has a si |
