UPWARD was the code name, within the National Reconnaissance Office's Byeman Control System, for assistance given to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) during Project Apollo. The system would have flown a KH-7 GAMBIT camera into Earth orbit, for transport to the moon to perform mapping surveys. According to the NRO/NASA agreement, lunar photography could be sanitized by eliminating camera scale factors. The project had the unclassified name of Lunar Mapping and Survey System (LM&SS) in NASA channels.

abstract
  • UPWARD was the code name, within the National Reconnaissance Office's Byeman Control System, for assistance given to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) during Project Apollo. The system would have flown a KH-7 GAMBIT camera into Earth orbit, for transport to the moon to perform mapping surveys. According to the NRO/NASA agreement, lunar photography could be sanitized by eliminating camera scale factors. The project had the unclassified name of Lunar Mapping and Survey System (LM&SS) in NASA channels. The success of both Lunar Orbiter and Surveyor negated the use of the LM&SS system. No system ever flew in space.
