Review of endocrine control of fluid and electrolyte balance during Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions
Powered flight, rendezvous, reentry, orbital and extravehicular operational aspects of Gemini Project
Inflight physiological experiments and man as functional unit in gemini project - review of results
Unmanned Gemini project - mission parameters, test objectives, and launch program
In this presentation I intend to review briefly the Mercury concepts. This is particularly appropriate because of its major influence in the Apollo concepts. Also the role of Project Gemini will be briefly discussed in the same context.

Marshall engineering personnel have developed and are now refining a new and unique method of mechanically flaring tubing. The system eliminates the use of the conventional split backing die which is used with most tube-flaring equipment. The Marshall-developed tool is adapted for use on standard Leonard 3-CP-HD flaring machines. The stationary split backing die is replaced in function with a die ring, whose i.d.-surface rolls or orbits around the o.d. of the tube flare zone. An i.d.-flaring cone moves axially and forces the metal against the rolling die to form the flare. Major advantages of this system are the elimination of flash, or split die marks, on the back angle of the flare, and improved flare-surface finishes, permitting more uniform sealing characteristics and improvements of the total geometric configuration of the flare as required by the MSFC specification MC-146. The Orbital Adapter system of tooling is currently being used to manufacture flared tube hardware for the Saturn V S-IO space launch vehicle at MSFC, for the Agena space launch vehicle (used for the Gemini project) at Lockheed, Sunnyvale, for LEM checkout equipment for Grumman, and for the Saturn S-IV-B space launch vehicle by Douglas Aircraft Company. Several other aerospace firms are evaluating the system for possible incorporation on their tube flaring requirements. Marshall engineers are now concentrating their efforts on refining and reducing the total cost of the overall system.
