BATTALION Page 6 College Station, Texas Wednesday, December 3, 1969 Quarantine Life ‘Can Be Hell, 9 Scientists Find By PAUL RECER AP Aerospace Writer SPACE CENTER, Houston <A>) —Life in quarantine at the Lunar Receiving Laboratory is “hell,” scientists locked in by an acci dental exposure to moon dust said Tuesday. Seven scientists and four tech nicians joined the Apollo 12 as tronauts Monday night in quar antine after failure of a glove in a pressurized chamber cbntaining moon rock. “Last night we enjoyed a movie —“Hell in the Pacific”—with the astronauts,” said Dr. Cliff Fron- dell of Harvard. “One of the as tronauts remarked about hell in the LRL and that’s my personal reaction to quarantine.” The Apollo 12 astronauts, Charles Conrad Jr., Richard Gor don Jr. and Alan Bean, started their formal debriefing Tuesday. Speaking from behind a glass wall, they talked about their 10- day moon landing flight with the top national aeronautics and space administration officials. Conrad and his crewmates will talk with flight directors Wednes day. Scientists in another part of the laboratory worked with the moon rocks. Fine grained material from the moon was exposed to samples of tissue in an effort to learn if it harmed earth creatures. Later, the material will be exposed to living animals, such as birds, mice, fish and oysters. Scientists completed a prelimi nary examination of a core tube sample taken from a few inches beneath the moon’s surface. Dr. Roal Fryxell said the core tube showed that soil just under the surface of the Ocean of Storms on the moon is layered and contains a great deal of glass was found in the Apollo 11 sam ples studied last July, he said, but not the amount found in the Apollo core samples. Three other core tube are yet to be examined, he said. Scientists believe the glass is created by heat caused when meteors impact on the moon. The heat melts granular material, cre ating glass and other substances. General Honored By Tan Beta Pi Maj. Gen. Guy H.
