June 30, 1963 THE WIZARDS OF SPACE (15) By Don Oakley and John Lane Leave Family Alone And Forget Fast By ANN LANDERS Iear Ann Landers: This will sound terrible but I'm really a very nice guy. I want mv fourth wife back. I had age since Peg and now I know for sure that The first American trip to the moon? It could coipe as early as 1968. It will take place no later than 1970, if the nation meets the goal set by President Kennedy. But one day only a few short years from now a gigantic 355-foot Saturn V rocket will lift off its elevated and isolated pad at the Merritt Island complex at Cape Canaveral. Six million pounds of men and metal will speed into the heavens, pushed by five great engines generating 73 million pounds of thrust 100 times more than the rocket which launched America's first satellite in 1958. It will not be the first flight for the Apollo. Unmanned capsules will be launched in 1964 , and 1965. Early versions of the Saturn will place the entire Apollo system with crew into earth orbit in 1966. Possibly as early as 1967, the first Saturn V will send an Apollo crew around the moon and back. Apollo will consist of three major sections or modules: the command, service and lunar excursion modules (LEM). The command module, weighing 10,000 pounds, will carry the crew, guidance, communications and life-support systems. The service module, weigh ing 50,000 pounds, will carry propulsion sys tems for midcourse maneuvering and entry into and escape from lunar orbit. Finally, the lunar landing vehicle, or LEM, which will weigh 25,000 pounds, will carry two of the three crew members to the moon's surface. Before heading for the moon, the Apollo will spend p.'ucvt three hours in earth orbit as final checks are made on all its systems. Shortly after leaving earth orbit, the command and service modules will swing around in a nose-to-nose position with the LEM. The first mid course guidance correction will be made, de termined by computer calculations made on board and by ground stations, which will be in constant contact with the spacecraft through out the mission. While. coasting toward the moon the trip will take 62 hours from earth orbit to lunar orbit two of the crew will transfer to the LEM and prepare for the landing. NEXT: The Moon Bug Oregon Scientists Going After Great Gray Whale PORTLAND. Ore. (UPD-Hcr- man Melville's demonic Captain Ahab searched for his allegorical "truth" in the great white whale, Moby Dick. It was his undoing. Hut a group ot medical re searchers here believe lie had the right idea, just the wrong whale. Scientists at the University of Oregon Medical School are going after the grey whale and some truths they believe are scientifical ly very important. The research team, headed by Dr. Richard Lyons, an assistant professor of anatomy, hopes to catch enough specimens to probe some heretofore mysterious as pects of life both whale and human. Th : project, called a "Multidis- ciplinary Approach to Whale Bi- program which includes studies of ology" his attracted about 15goetal hemoglobin. scientists at the school and a number of students. From an idea born in discus sions more than a year ago, it has grown into a project encom passing many aspects of cetology the study of whales as well as investigation into human gen etic growth. Lyons has petitioned the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for per mission to take grey whales, a species protected by international law since 1930 when they were al most extinct. This species is needed because its migration past the Oregon Coast is well known and its breed ing grounds charted. Pregnant whales are needed for part of the Byproducts, Inc., a fishing firm which opened a whaling station at Hammond, Ore., two years ago, will supply the boat and crew and dispose of the whale's remains. One of the principal objectives of the project is a chemical called DNA (deoxribonucleic acid) from the whale's organs. Scientists say it may hold the key to genetic reproduction in plants and ani mals. Other phases of the project in clude studies of whale hemoglobin. the oxygen-carrying compound of the red corpuscles. Researchers want to learn if the same type of genes makes both whale and human hemoglobin, and they hope they can discover how evolution created this compound. TWA i.
