From an equipment bay on the other side of the LM, the busy spacemen will remove EASEP (for Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Payload). They will set up one part of the package?a laser-beam reflector?some 70 ft. from the LM. The other experiment, a seismometer for measuring moonquakes and meteor impacts, will be placed 10 ft. farther away. Both will be left on the moon for the benefit of earthbound scientists (see following section...
...facilities, thanks to the support of the Government and the ingenuity of our staff, are as up-to-date as those of any other comparable High-Energy Physics Laboratory. As a matter of fact, we are developing a colliding beam facility unique in the U.S. whose goal is to study the laws of electrodynamics to much smaller distances than possible so far. Harvard is not only "getting free" just another laboratory, but one that is most up-to-date...
...separate highland sites. In Apollo 11, the astronauts will stray no more than 50 ft. away from their craft. Their scientific equipment-called EASEP for "Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Payload"-includes a solar-powered seismometer to check on moonquakes and a mirror to bounce back an earth-based laser beam to measure the distance from home...
...bungalow-size space stations for three-man crews. The first will include a doctor, who will study the effects on himself and his companions of 28 days under zero gravity. The crew will also try to learn how vacuum and weightlessness affect certain manufacturing processes. These include electron beam welding and the use of molten substances to fabricate extra-strong materials and perfectly round ball bearings. The astronauts' 10,000-cu.-ft. living space will feature a wardroom for relaxation, a microwave oven, a "sponge shower" with a vacuum cleaner to get rid of wastes, and even a forced...
...slush dirt sidewalk, trying to find his way to a gig at Pepper's; there's Hank Williams, the bad cowboy, but he was sad, too, man. Stoic on the floor, the sad-bad hillbilly. Crazy Dylan flagging down huge trucks on Highway 61, the Automatic Kid, Energy Beam Rocker. He can't catch anything, just hold his collar to his neck and fall back when the wind hits him. Charly Parker smiling, no black revolt for him, it's all very foggy, bip-bop, if you would be so kind as to dig that. But Gerry Mulligan says hello...
