He said very careful analysis of
a recent failure showed the
cause to be in two small parts

which was overridden, the Pres
ident's other veto prevailed. In
fact, Congress did not even try
to override it.
The vetoed bill would have
fixed the pay of per diem (blue
collar) workers of the Ports
mouth, N. H., Naval Shipyard
at the same hourly rates paid
to employees of similar clasSifi-
cation at the Boston Naval
Shipysrd.
Such a system would have
resulted in higher pay for the
Portsmouth employees since the
Boston area is a higher-wage
area.
The President vetoed the bill
on the grounds that it would
open the door for other Gov
ernment per diem workers to
try to have their wages fixed
on the basis of employees sta
toned in higher-wage areas.
The Portsmouth employees
argued that this was not the
case, since they originally had
had their pay fixed on the
basis of the Boston area rate
some years ago. Also, they
argued that they we're actually
part of the Boston committing
area, being only about so miles
away.

NASA Details
S12 Billion in
SpaceProjects

4AlC NdGLOlldl AcIOtlduLlCS
and Space Administration gave
detailed plans for a multi
billion-dollar space exploration
program to potential Contrac-
tors today.
Among the projecs n the
program, estimated to cost be-
tween $12 billion and SIS bill
lion, are:
l. The Apollo. intended tc
carry a crew of three on a noon
orbit after the first space flight
is accomplished in a Mercury
capsule orbiting the earth.
2. The Aeros, a satellite
which would ride in the sky at
the same speed as the earth's
rotation. This is sometimes de-
scrlbed as a stationary satel-
lite.
3. The Prospector and Sur
veyor moon exploration vehicles
4. The Rebound, a name given
to passive communications sat-
elites from which radio and
television signals could be
bounced.
NASA officials outlined the
programs at a meeting of in
dustry representatives so that
the contractors could get ready
to take part in various programs
Uses for Apollo
George M. Low, chief OF
Manned Space Flight Programs
told the group that the Apollo
vehicle, to be launched BY
Saturn rockets, will be flexible
enough to be capable of both
flying around the moon-a step
toward future manned landings
on the moon-and serving as a
manned laboratory orbiting the
earth.
Mr.. Low said Apollo will have
three basic parts:
l. A command center, which
would house the crew during
the launching and during re-
entry to the earth's atmosphere
at a speed of about $4,000 feet
a second. Pressure suits would
probably be worn while the
crew is in the command center
2. A propulsion unit which
would provide mid-course cor
rections, place the craft into an
orbit around the moon, eject it
from that orbit or maneuver it
during earth orbits.
s. A mission unit, whicn
could be changed for various
fight missions.
At least two of the crew
would occupy the mission unit
during most of the fight, and
it therefore would be designed
for shirtsleeve operations-that
is, without the use of pressure
suits.
Mr.. Low said Apollo's design
engineering and fabrication is
expected to be started some
time in the fiscal year beginning
next July.
Earth orbital missions could
conceivably begin in 1866, with
circumlunar missions following
as soon as the state of both
tie C hical and aeromedical
knowledge permits" Mr.. Low

astronaut might encounter If
his space cabin is suddenly jet
tisoned because of failure of
the booster rocket shortly after
launching.
1t was an opening shot in
a United States bid to send
a man to the fringes of space
by the end of this year and, into
orbit some time in 1861. All
seven American aStronauts
were present today for this key
test.
There was no living thing
aboard today although monkeys
have ridden in two earlier
Mercury test units.
NASA said earlier the Atlas
was geared to shut off its engines
and eject the capsule before
the end Of its normal burning
time to simulate an abort dur
ing the powered phase of flight.
A NASA official said this
would send the capsule crash
ing through the atmosphere at
the sharpest possible re-entry
angle and would subject it to
extremely high temperatures
and air-load gravity condi-
tions-far more severe than
those a capsule would encounter
in re-entering after a normal
orbital flight"
The capSule-the first pro-
duction model-was to come
back to earth at a 10-degree
angle-five times sleeper than
the planned orbit return angle
of 2 degrees.
Shield Tested Successfully
Shaped like a large bell, the
capsule was 9 feet tall, 6 feet
across the rounded base and 20
inches across the top. The
saucer-like base, which absorbs
much Of the shock Of re-entry,
was coated with an inch-t thick
layer of a fiberglass-resin COM
pound designed to melt and
run OF under intense heat.
This shield, which protects
the capsule from burning, was
tested successfully last Sep
tember when an Atlas hurled it
aloft on a similar test while it
was attached to a boiler-plate
model OF the Mercury capsule.
