... Unused portions of flight samples were to be returned to MSFC, cataloged by the archivist, and treated as "space artifacts." Scientific results from individual spaceflight experiments usually were published in the form of NASA technical memoranda and as peerreviewed journal articles. Such publications were tracked through a bibliographic archive also assembled and maintained at the Space Science Laboratory at MSFC.
