Abstract
Certain problems of technical writing have persisted throughout the entire development of science and engineering during the past 150 years. This paper describes the classic approach to effective report writing as used by the early scientists who laid the groundwork for our present space studies. Their techniques are recommended for use in scientific reporting in the space age.
