Collins was chief of the Archives and Oral History Section of the Department of Space History at the National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution, and codirector of the Glennan-Webb-Seamans Project for Research in Space History.

After that she became director of the Office of Special Studies in the Office of the NASA Administrator. Among the contributors are: William E. Burrows, Richard P. Hallion, James R.

Derived from a review by the Library Journal posted on-line: America's space program has been ongoing for over 30 years--long enough for historians to begin to place it in perspective. Based on a Smithsonian Institution-sponsored seminar, this collection of essays by historians and political scientists examines several aspects of the space program including policy formulation, space science, aerospace research in the federal laboratory, and space-based military reconnaissance. The analysis of the troubled Space Station program's decision-making process is a particularly illustrative case study of how not to initiate a federally sponsored high- technology program.
