of Saturn vehicles were announced by

00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:09,520
NASA during this quarter in the interest

00:01:15,989 --> 00:01:12,250
of simplification new designations for

00:02:11,490 --> 00:02:09,399
minor technical difficulties during the

[Music]

38
00:02:46,830 --> 00:02:44,490
while the SI for flight shown in slow

39
00:02:48,630 --> 00:02:46,840
motion was similar in many respects to

40
00:02:51,509 --> 00:02:48,640
that of earlier saturn's there were

41
00:02:53,940 --> 00:02:51,519
several significant departures at 100

vehicle held on course

45
00:03:02,099 --> 00:03:00,189
while the propellant distribution system

46
00:03:04,710 --> 00:03:02,109
channelled the remaining fuel into the

47
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:04,720
other seven engines extending burning

00:03:11,339 --> 00:03:09,579
of thrust several other changes in the

50
00:03:13,289 --> 00:03:11,349
vehicle will contribute to the

51
00:03:15,509 --> 00:03:13,299
development of the block ii version of

54
00:03:23,460 --> 00:03:20,290
state control accelerometers were used

55
00:03:25,289 --> 00:03:23,470
actively for the first time flawless a

the st 1:24 stabilized platform which

58
00:03:34,229 --> 00:03:30,220
will be used actively beginning with the

6th Saturn a mistress tomando was also

60
00:03:38,970 --> 00:03:36,970
flown on a passenger basis a q-ball

61
00:03:41,399 --> 00:03:38,980
angle-of-attack device was mounted in

62
00:03:43,619 --> 00:03:41,409
the nose cone and several sections of

new heat shield insulation at the tail

64
00:03:49,890 --> 00:03:46,540

69
00:04:16,140 --> 00:04:13,510

seconds

73
00:04:24,629 --> 00:04:21,880
however propulsion system deficiencies

74
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:24,639
appeared in data analysis and corrective

75
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:27,849
action was taken on March 27th a third

00:04:33,390 --> 00:04:30,970
firing of 144 seconds was successfully

77
00:04:39,059 --> 00:04:33,400

springs it is put through paces which

93
00:05:32,350 --> 00:05:30,199
simulate flight conditions as the

vehicle dents rhythmically or vibrates

95
00:05:38,140 --> 00:05:35,500
driven by a large electrical device

96
00:05:42,249 --> 00:05:38,150
stress measurements are taken at vital

97
00:05:44,290 --> 00:05:42,259
points all over the vehicle results of

98
00:05:47,050 --> 00:05:44,300
testing are fed into an analog digital

101
00:05:57,450 --> 00:05:51,409
then run through another computer which

following first phase testing the

103
00:06:04,689 --> 00:06:02,240

104
00:06:07,930 --> 00:06:04,699

00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:26,810
s18 tail section assembly was completed

190
00:10:33,820 --> 00:10:28,970
this quarter assembly operations will

191
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:33,830
begin in May meanwhile s110 barrel

192
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:35,930

195
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:45,830
February 5th a decision was made to

196
00:10:51,700 --> 00:10:49,010
modify the west side extension of the s1

197
00:10:54,580 --> 00:10:51,710
static test tower originally designed to

198
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:54,590
test s1 boosters the extension will be

199
00:10:59,800 --> 00:10:57,370
slightly modified to test f-1 engines

200
00:11:01,870 --> 00:10:59,810
enabling testing to take place several

201
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:01,880
months earlier after completion of

202
00:11:07,270 --> 00:11:04,730
Marshalls f1 test stand the west side

203
00:11:14,770 --> 00:11:07,280

an electric motor and is easily

210
00:11:30,759 --> 00:11:29,060
maneuvered by one man its purpose is to

211
00:11:32,769 --> 00:11:30,769
afford access to the model for

00:11:40,660 --> 00:11:37,699
measure and record the directional

00:11:44,590 --> 00:11:42,499
pedestal mounted model is rotated

217
00:11:46,269 --> 00:11:44,600
continuously during the time that a

218
00:11:48,309 --> 00:11:46,279
radio frequency signal is being

219
00:11:50,739 --> 00:11:48,319
transmitted to a receiver at a fixed

220
00:11:53,710 --> 00:11:50,749
location the varying amplitude of this

221
00:11:58,809 --> 00:11:53,720
signal is recorded at a console located

222
00:12:01,660 --> 00:11:58,819

commanded by the vehicle guidance system

231
00:12:25,449 --> 00:12:22,759
this positioning is necessary for

bending of the vehicle test results will

235
00:12:36,879 --> 00:12:34,879
help determine if the flight control

firings of over 460 seconds duration

264
00:14:02,379 --> 00:14:00,769
were performed due to these problems

265
00:14:08,710 --> 00:14:02,389

for production of j2 injectors this

328
00:17:28,510 --> 00:17:26,270
concept uses a forming die made of

329
00:17:32,410 --> 00:17:28,520
compressed graphite which in turn acts

330
00:17:34,690 --> 00:17:32,420
as an electrode as the erosion process

331
00:17:37,810 --> 00:17:34,700
reacts against the metal to be formed a

332
00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:37,820
non conductive oil removes the eroded

333
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:43,610
