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.

Oregon Scientists Going After Great Gray Whale

Scientists at the University of

Dr. Richard Lyons, an assistant
