NAVY TAKING GRASSHOPPERS W ANTARCTIC
A 150-pound, 514-foot “Grasshopper”, resembling a small bomb,
is going to the Antarctic on “Operation Deepfreeze during the In
ternational Geophysical Year 1957-58. The Navy intends to use the
super-robots as weather relay stations after parachuting them to
desired locations. (FHTNC)
rhe wind vane at top right will determine wind direction and ve
loeity while other instruments record and transmit air temperature,
barometric pressure and relative humidity. Lnder study since 1942,
this model was developed by the Naval Research Laboratory m
Washington, D. C. (FHTNC)
After being dropped to desired location, a timing device inside the
“Grasshopper” sets the legs in motion causing self-erection. The
Navy robot was so named because of its chirping sound and hop
ping motion while righting itself. (FHTNC)
■ Hill...
In upright position, the “Grasshopper” is ready to shoot a 25-foot
antenna into the air. tJsing a 12-volt »«tceU N«"v
periodic radio weather reports as far as 800 miles for 60 days. i>a>y
tests in the Antarctic are expected to bring the robot to perfection. f
