Meteorology: launching weather balloons.

Artists used paintbrushes and airbrushes to recreate the lunar surface on each of the four models comprising the LOLA simulator. Project LOLA or Lunar Orbit and Landing Approach was a simulator built at Langley to study problems related to landing on the lunar surface. It was a complex project that cost nearly $2 million dollars. James Hansen wrote: "This simulator was designed to provide a pilot with a detailed visual encounter with the lunar surface; the machine consisted primarily of a cockpit, a closed-circuit TV system, and four large murals or scale models representing portions of the lunar surface as seen from various altitudes. The pilot in the cockpit moved along a track past these murals which would accustom him to the visual cues for controlling a spacecraft in the vicinity of the moon. Unfortunately, such a simulation--although great fun and quite aesthetic--was not helpful because flight in lunar orbit posed no special problems other than the rendezvous with the LEM, which

Inflating a Weather Balloon. U.S. Coast Guard Aerographer's Mate Frank A. Perdue helps observer Norman E. Caroll of the U.S. Weather Bureau to inflate a weather balloon for launching into the upper atmosphere from the flight deck of the U.S. Coast Guard icebreaker Northwind. Data on the upper air pressure, humidity, and velocity of winds, was gathered by use of weather balloons in addition to the charting and probing of water depths made during the Northwind's oceanographic survey of the Northern Bering Sea and international waters off Siberia between July and October. Participating in this project, which is part of the Coast Guard's expanded oceanographic program, were U.S. Weather Bureau observers as well as oceanographic experts from the Universities of Washington and Oregon.

Cable system which supports the test subject on the Reduced Gravity Walking Simulator. The purpose of this simulator was to study the subject while walking, jumping or running. Researchers conducted studies of various factors such as fatigue limit, energy expenditure, and speed of locomotion. A.W. Vigil described the purpose of the simulator as follows: "When the astronauts land on the moon they will be in an unfamiliar environment involving, particularly, a gravitational field only one-sixth as strong as on earth. A novel method of simulating lunar gravity has been developed and is supported by a puppet-type suspension system at the end of a long pendulum. A floor is provided at the proper angle so that one-sixth of the subject's weight is supported by the floor with the remainder being supported by the suspension system. This simulator allows almost complete freedom in vertical translation and pitch and is considered to be a very realistic simulation of the lunar walking problem. For
