SATELLITIC OHHERY Arthur B. Epper
son, Klamath Ells, demonstrated his de
vice he calls a "satellitic orrery" during a
science class at McLoughlin Junior High
school ast.week The former Iowa high
school principal and math teacher, built the
device as a hobby after the firing of Sput
nik I. A motor sends the satellite (in front
of globe) revolving around the globe-15
times for each revolution the globe makes..
The satellite blinks off and on as it rotates.'
The arc at the left changes the 'position of
the satellite so its orbit may be changed.
The oscillator at extreme left acts as a
tracing station and gives off "beep beep"
signals. The contraption was built of scrap
materials including parts of fishing tackle,
Epperson explained. A fishing reel may be
seen just below the tip of the arc on the
left. Extending from it along a copper arm
is a thread which is fastened to the satellite.
The thread, when taped to the globe (white
lines), weaves a network of the orbital track
so it may be seen. Watching the device work
are students Maureen Kilby.and Fritz Beck.
