About the Book

Secret staff in a secret headquarters for secret programs: to a certain kind of mind, the words have a compelling appeal. If you have that kind of mind, you could hardly do better than to read this account of the staff that supported the most secret US space organization of the Cold War. From the front matter of this NRO report:


During the period addressed in this history, the existence of the NRO was a deeply classified fact. When people referred to it at the unclassified level, they often substituted the term "4C-1000" for the name. For example, someone might say, "You need to coordinate this with 4C-1000," or someone at a meeting might say, "I'm from 4C-1000."


4C-1000, also occasionally referred to as "The Suite" by insiders, was actually the Pentagon office where the NRO Deputy Director, the Staff Director, and most of the Staff members were housed. It was located on the 4th floor, C ring, room 1000 - or in Pentagon speak, room 4C-1000


This document provides a historical account of the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) Staff from 1962 to 1990. It highlights the functions and responsibilities of the NRO Staff, including managing the National Reconnaissance Program (NRP) and developing satellite reconnaissance systems. The document emphasizes the criticality and sensitivity of the NRO mission, the need for special security and streamlined management processes, and the agility and adaptability of the NRO Staff in response to changing environments. It also discusses the challenges faced by the NRO, such as advances in technology and growing interagency and system interfaces. Despite these challenges, the NRO Staff successfully adapted and maintained efficient operations.


This annotated edition illustrates the capabilities of the AI Lab for Book-Lovers to add context and ease-of-use to manuscripts. It includes five types of abstracts, building from simplest to more complex: TLDR (one word), ELI5, TLDR (vanilla), Scientific Style, and Action Items; four essays to increase viewpoint diversity: Context in the Discourse, Formal Dissent; Red Team Critique; and MAGA Perspective; and Notable Passages and Nutshell Summaries for each page.
