Astronaut Cooper Will
Be Viewed on TV by
Scientists During Flight
HOUSTON. Tex. (T» — Astro
naut Leroy G. Cooper Jr., will bo
sei'ii on seientists’ tek*vision screens
during portions of his scheduled
! 18-orbit space flight next April.
In an interview Friday, Cooper
(said a miniature transmitter will
| flash images of the inside of the
I spacecraft back to earth when it
is within range of a receiving
station.
Alan Shepard Jr., the nation’s
first spaceman — who is Cooper’s
backup man — said the television
picture of Cooper won’t be on
commercial networks — at least
immediately.
“The transmitter will be operat
j ing on a different scan speed,”
Shepard said. “The pictures could
j be shown on commercial television
i later after the scan speed is con
| verted.”
The Russians saw their cosmo
nauts via television on their last
I two space flights but this will be
j the first time the United States
I has used such in flight transmitters,
j Cooper said his Mercury space
craft also will carry for the first
I time a ball with strobe lights,
which will be released to test man’s
| vision in space at night.
It also will have an experimental
'fuel expulsion cylinder which may
j improve the operation of the cru
cial attitude control jets on future
spacecraft.
