The Oilfields of Britain -- An engineer examines for traces of oil, the muddy water as it flows from the drill. War-time results obtained from the new eakring Oilfield situated near Newark demonstrate the great asset which home-produced oil could be to peace-time industry. Twenty six million gallons of oil a year were pumped from Britain's indigenous wells to assist in combatting the Nazi U-Boat menace. Once the well is drilled, all unsightly plant and derricks are removed. The pump, which conveys the oil to a central collecting point, is a very unobtrusive affair occupying about the same space as a domestic garage, thus refuting the claim that the plant would mar the view of some of Britain's most beautiful Landscapes. July 31, 1945. (Photo by Associated Press Photo).

At its founding, the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) inherited the Armys Jupiter and Redstone test stands, but much larger facilities were needed for the giant stages of the Saturn V. From 1960 to 1964, the existing stands were remodeled and a sizable new test area was developed. The new comprehensive test complex for propulsion and structural dynamics was unique within the nation and the free world, and they remain so today because they were constructed with foresight to meet the future as well as on going needs. Construction of the S-IC Static test stand complex began in 1961 in the west test area of MSFC, and was completed in 1964. The S-IC static test stand was designed to develop and test the 138-ft long and 33-ft diameter Saturn V S-IC first stage, or booster stage, weighing in at 280,000 pounds. Required to hold down the brute force of a 7,500,000-pound thrust produced by 5 F-1 engines, the S-IC static test stand was designed and constructed with the strength of hundreds of
