...approached Australia. Glenn radioed Astronaut Gordon Cooper in the tracking station at Muchea: "That was about the shortest day I've ever run into. Just to my right, I can see a big pattern of light, apparently right on the coast." The glow was the city of Perth, which had prepared? a welcome for Glenn that was also a test of his night vision.

Increasingly, too, training-minded corporations such as Western...
