- ‘Rocket States’ is a full-length monograph centred, amongst other things, on extensive primary research undertaken in the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library in Massachusetts. This library contains the James E. Webb files (NASA's chief administrator during the Kennedy Presidency), as well as the Thomas O. Paine files, both of whom were instrumental in the development of the US Mercury and Apollo programs; this formed an essential aspect of Collignon’s research on closed world Cold War culture.
