A small army of reporters
and radio and television tech
nicians has moved south to
Cape Canaveral in anticipa
tion of the launching of as
tronaut L. Gordon Cooper's
22-orbital flight scheduled for
6 a.m. PDT Tuesday.
The flight, from launch to
recovery, is expected to take
34 hours, 19 minutes. During
this period the three tele
vision and four radio network
"pools" will follow the mis
sion with live reports at least
every half hour.
Cooper's space craft will be
equipped with a small, port
able TV camera which he can
train on himself or out the
window. On 10 orbits, when
the space capsule is within
range of Cape Canaveral, it
will transmit these TV pic
tures back to earth. The pic
tures will then be taped . at
the Cape for delayed release
by the National Aeronautics
and Space Administration.
The biggest difference be
tween the television coverage
of Cooper's MA-9 flight and
the flights of previous astro
nauts will be an additional
viewing audience of hundreds
of thousands of Western Eu
ropeans. If all goes as plan
ned, international television
transmission via an American
communications satellite will
permit Europeans to witness
the event on their home sets
at the moment it happens.
In spite of great time dif
ferences, language bnrr'rfs
and the fact that TV trans
mission must be timed to co
incide with the passage over
a particular spot on the earth
of a satellite whirling through
space, the complicated busi
ness of news transmission by
satellite has become routine
to the men who handle it.

Santa Monica, Calif., house
wife who became the first

here today in preparation for

alarm her," he said.
