AAP was the ultimate development of a number of official and unofficial Apollo follow-on projects studied at various NASA labs.

Thus, Fiscal Year 1967 ultimately allocated $80 million to the AAP, compared to NASA's preliminary estimates of $450 million necessary to fund a full-scale AAP program for that year, with over $1 billion being required for FY 1968. The AAP eventually led to Skylab, which absorbed much of what had been developed under Apollo Applications. Origins NASA management was concerned about losing the 400,000 workers involved in A ...
