"the oil a
scale simulation in preparation
for the third shuttle flight.
Three groups of controllers
were to work around the clock in
Mission Control, but the two
astronauts — who would find it
uncomfortable for too long at a
time — were to go home for the
night.
“A controller will act as if he’s
an astronaut during the sleep
period,” Johnson Space Center
spokesman Terry White said.
The actual flight launching
from Kennedy Space Center in
Florida is set for March 22.
Computer analysts posed
problems for the controllers and
the astronauts during the simu
lation as both received visual
and electronic data similar to
that they will experience in
flight.
The simulation began at 8
a.m. and picked up into the
flight at one day, 21 hours and
45 minutes. White said the astro
nauts will work during the day,
but then go home during the
flight’s sleep hours.
“They afe in a normal gravity
situation now and sitting in
those cockpit seats and trying to
sleep in normal gravity would be
too much.

Doctors said they amputated
the boy’s feet because the freez-C
ing temperatures in the moun-’J
tains had caused irreversible cir
culation damage. His mother
and stepf ather died in the crash.';
The plane crashed in a bliz-'
zard Jan. 3 at the 12,000-foot
level of the Sierra Nevada near;
Tioga Pass on the border of
Yoseniite National Park.
Doctors said Priest would
have a good chance of regaining
the use of his legs with the help
of prosthetic devices.
