On December 14, 1960, Boggs circulated to the National Security Council NSC 6021, “Missiles and Military Space Programs,” a codification of policy on the subject derived from certain actions of the National Security Council for the 1955–1960 period. (Department of State, S/S–NSC Files: Lot 63 D 351, NSC 6021 Series) In light of discussion at the Council meetings held on January 5 and 12, 1961, the Planning Board revised the paper, which the President approved on January 18 as NSC 6108, “Certain Aspects of Missile and Space Programs.” (National Archives and Records Administration, RG 273, Records of the National Security Council, Policy Papers File)
