Famous transatlantic flyer demonstrates new type plane to Navy Officials. Clarence Chamberlain, famous Transatlantic flyer, and Ruth Nichols (in cabin) noted aviator, arrived in Washington today with the new Chamberlain cabin menoplane. In this photograph they are pointing out the many features of this new plane to Commander A.H. Douglas, Commandant of the Naval Air Station and Commander J.H. Towers, Assistant Chief of the Naval Bureau of Aeronautics (right). Unusual visibility and special aerlons which Chamberlain says practically makes it impossible for this ship to stall or go into a tailspin, are the new features

Conservation. Glass gauges replacing steel. Checking the inside diameter of a cartridge case with one of the glass gauges, which are replacing steel gauges at the Frankford Arsenal. Glass gauges are lighter and cheaper than steel, permit greater visibility in inspection, are not as much affected by room temperatures and heat of operators' hands, are not corroded by perspiration, need no protection against rusting, do not acquire burrs that would change the effective sizes. They can save the annual use of 250 tons of critical tool steel in government arsenals alone

August 17 to 19, 1989 Range : 11.5 million km (7.1 million mi.) to 7.9 million km (4.9 million mi.) Four black and white images of Neptune's largest satellite, Triton, show it's rotation between the first (upper left) image and the last (lower right). Resolution improves from about 200 km (124 miles) to 150 km (93 miles) per line pair. Triton's south pole lies in the dark area near the bottom of the disk. Dark spots, roughly 1,000 km (620 miles) across, occur near the equator, and show Triton rotation between images. The rotation appears to be synchronous with Triton's 5.88-day orbital period (i.e., Triton rotates on its axis in the same time it revolves around Neptune.) The spots' constant rotation rate and their visibility near the edge of the disk suggest the spots are surface features. Whatever atmosphere is present on Triton appears transparent enough that Voyager 2's cameras can see through it. ARC-1989-A89-7005

Photo by Voyager 2 (JPL) During August 16 and 17, 1989, the Voyager 2 narrow-angle camera was used to photograph Neptune almost continuously, recording approximately two and one-half rotations of the planet. These images represent the most complete set of full disk Neptune images that the spacecraft will acquire. This picture from the sequence shows two of the four cloud features which have been tracked by the Voyager cameras during the past two months. The large dark oval near the western limb (the left edge) is at a latitude of 22 degrees south and circuits Neptune every 18.3 hours. The bright clouds immediately to the south and east of this oval are seen to substantially change their appearances in periods as short as four hours. The second dark spot, at 54 degrees south latitude near the terminator (lower right edge), circuits Neptune every 16.1 hours. This image has been processed to enchance the visibility of small features, at some sacrifice of color fidelity. The Voyager Mission is conducted by JPL for NASA's Office of Space Science and Applications. (JPL Ref: A-34611 Voyager 2-N29) ARC-1989-AC89-7001

Range : 280,000 km. ( 170,000 miles ) P-34726 BW Two 10 minute exposures of Neptune's rings clearly show the two main rings , as well as the inner faint ring and the faint band that extends planetward from roughly halfway between the two bright rings. Both bright rings have material throughout their entire orbit, and are therefore continuous. The inner ring and the broad band are much fainter than the two narrow main rings. These images were taken 1 hour and 27 minutes aprt, using the clear filter on Voyager 2's wide angle camera. These long exposures images were taken while the rings were backlit by the sun. This viewing geometry enhances the visibility of dust and allows optically thinner parts of the rings to be seen. The bright glare in the center is due to overexposure of the crescent of Neptune . The two gaps in the upper part of the outer ring in the image on the left are due to the removal of blemishes during computer processing of the images. Numerous bright stars are evident in the background. ARC-1989-A89-7045

Range : 350,000 miles (JPL Ref: P-37329) This image of the western hemisphere of the Moon was taken through a green filter by Galileo at 9:35 am PST. In the center is the Orientale Basin, 600 miles in diameter, formed about 3.8 billion years ago by the impact of an streroid-size body. Orientale's dark center is a small mare. To the right is the lunar near side with the great, dark Oceanus Procellarum above and the small, circular, dark Mare Humorum Below. Maria are broad plains formed mostly over 3 billion years ago as vast bassaltic lava flows. To the left is the lunar far side with fewer maria, but, at lower left, the South-Pole-Aitken basin, about 1200 miles in diameter, which resemble Orientale but is much older and more weathered and battered by cratering. The intervening cratered highlands of both sides, as well as the maria, are dotted with bright, young craters. This image was 'reprojected' so as to center visibility of small features.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Taken during the STS-95 mission from a point over Cuba, this photo shows an oblique, foreshortened view of the Florida Peninsula, with the light blue, shallow seafloor of both the Florida Keys (curving across the bottom of the view) and the Bahama banks (right). "Popcorn" cumulus cloud covers Miami and the Southern Everglades, although the built-up area from Ft. Lauderdale to West Palm Beach can be discerned. Lake Okeechobee is the prominent waterbody in Florida. Cape Canaveral is shown well, half way up the peninsula. Orlando appears as the lighter patch West (left) of Cape Canaveral, near the middle of the peninsula. Cape Hatteras appears top right, with the North part of Chesapeake Bay also visible. This is a visibility of 16 degrees of latitude (23 degrees N over Cuba to 39 degrees at Baltimore), showing unusual atmospheric clarity. KSC-99pc0098

Workers uncrate a segment of the Canadian Space Agency's (CSA) Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS) in the Space Station Processing Facility at KSC. It joins two other segments for a campaign of prelaunch processing activities. CSA's first contribution to the International Space Station (ISS), the SSRMS is the primary means of transferring payloads between the orbiter payload bay and the ISS for assembly. The 56-foot-long robotic arm includes two 12-foot booms joined by a hinge. Seven joints on the arm allow highly flexible and precise movement. Latching End Effectors are mounted on each end of the arm for grappling. Video cameras mounted on the booms and end effectors will give astronauts maximum visibility for operations and maintenance tasks on the ISS. The SSRMS is scheduled to be launched aboard Space Shuttle Endeavour on STS-100, currently planned for July 2000 KSC-99pd0545

Workers (center) in the Space Station Processing Facility, explain use of video cameras to members of the STS-100 crew (far left and far right) during Crew Equipment Interface Test activities. The cameras will be mounted on the booms and end effectors of the Space Station Remote Manipulator System (SSRMS), also known as the Canadian arm, and will give astronauts maximum visibility for operations and maintenance tasks on the International Space Station. Part of the payload on mission STS-100, the SSRMS is the primary means of transferring payloads between the orbiter payload bay and the International Space Station for assembly. The 56-foot-long robotic arm includes two 12-foot booms joined by a hinge. Seven joints on the arm allow highly flexible and precise movement. Mission STS-100 is scheduled to launch April 19, 2001 KSC-00pp1451

KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FLA. -- The pilot of the NASA helicopter secures the rotary blade before the helicopter’s transfer to Ransom Road at KSC. It is one of four UH-1H helicopters that will have its blades painted, changing the black to a pattern of white and yellow stripes. The pattern provides better visibility in smoke and fire conditions. When the rotors are turning, the stripes create a yellow and white circle that is more easily seen by a second helicopter from above. The helicopters, primarily used for security and medical evacuation for NASA, will be used to deliver water via buckets during brush fires. The change was made to comply with U.S. Fish and Wildlife and Department of Forestry regulations for helicopter-assisted fire control KSC00pp1794
