The Saturday afternoon game in Hondo ended 56 to 27. Next Saturday, November 21, at the Heroes Stadium in San Antonio, the Eagles will meet the Yorktown Wildcats of District 31-1A. Kickoff is at 6 p.m. The Eagles offense was dynamic, chalking up eight touchdowns, seven points- after, and one two-point con- version. They only had to punt twice and turned the pigskin over on downs once. The offense committed no fumbles and allowed no inter- ceptions.

From John Stapp’s rocket sled at Edwards Air Force Base in the late 1950’s to todays’ Formula 1 drivers, the “need for speed” is broadcast across TV screens weekly. So too are the horror stories of crashes, many at over 300 km/hr. Yet “need for speed” continues. It appears that the higher and faster the rollercoaster, the better. This leads to several questions. How does the brain stand up to speed and G-forces? Do Newton’s Laws still have reference in today’s world? There has been much attention in the general press on the possibility that high G-force roller-coasters are inducing brain injury in riders. However, research does not wholeheartedly support this notion, but rather the risk of brain injury from a rollercoaster is not in the rides, but in the rider — caused by previously undetected brain or neck conditions. That said there is some truth that high G-forces do affect the brain at a chemical and structural level.

By pursuing research relating to the medical aspects of flight, USAFSAM has provided pilots and astronauts with the necessary equipment and support to ensure their overall safety and health. In 1926, Brooks Field began its first association with the School of Aviation Medicine (SAM) when it moved from New York in order to support the Primary Flying School at Brooks Field. While stationed there from 1926 to 1931, the school trained flight surgeons as well as performed cadet physical examinations. SAM's brief but important tenure at Brooks Field served as a vital step in the development of aviation medicine and its contributions to pilot safety and training. In 1959, SAM again was relocated to Brooks AFB as part of an Air Force plan to concentrate its aerospace medical research facilities at one location.

Gallery Location: NMB Gallery 203 Subject Areas: Technological innovations and achievements Target Audience: General Target “Design-to” number: $7,682,457.00 Needed Services: Exhibition Design, Image Research and Acquisition NASM Project Number: E-061-15-007 Speed Exhibition #1 – A Nation of Speed This gallery will define “speed” as the act or state of moving swiftly within the context of the historical period in which individuals and groups operated fast-moving technology. The focus is not on what constitutes extreme speed today, but to rediscover the people, the technology, and the times in which these stories took place and their social and cultural ramifications. The content in this exhibition will be supported by a display of key artifacts (models and actual) over the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries by air, rail, water, roads and highways. Exhibition Space Gallery 203 is a windowless gallery approximately 5000 square feet with a 25 ft. ceiling and a single entrance/exit. All galleries will be delivered by the Revitalization project to the design team as black boxes with open ceilings and a lighting grid. The electrical and IT will be updated facilitating more cutting edge interactive and visitor experiences. Final electrical capacity and specific material finishes have not been defined and the contractor will be responsible to coordinate with the COTR the final black box details which are being developed.

  • Human Tolerance of Crash Deceleration
    CRASH INJURY RESEARCH Cornell University Medical College 1300 YORK AVENUE NEW YORK 21, N. Y. Under the auspices of the CORNELL COMMITTEE FOR January 31, 1950 AIR SAFETY RESEARCH HUMAN TOLERANCE OF CRASH DECELERATION Preliminary information on the results of tests using the rocket propelled acceleration-deceleration research facility at Edwards Air Force Base, Muroc, California, has been released by the United States Air Force. Human volunteers have been subjected to decelerations of 35g - without injury. Jolt loads of 57g have been recorded on safety belts and shoulder har­ ness during 35g decelerations. Results of this research indicate that the strength of aircraft structures and installations, rather than the strength of the human body, is the limiting factor in pilot protection. Fig. 1. Car used for testing human reactions to crash decelerations. The following quotations are from an article by Marvin Miles which appear­ ed in the Los Angeles T:Jmes on January 8, 1950: "A rocket sled, designed to duplicate air crashes, has subjected Air Force volunteers to sudden-stop pressures of four tons - without injury - and proved the amazing elasticity of the human body, it was disclosed yes­ terday. Developed by Northrop Aircraft, the strange device has made 47 runs at Edwards Air Base, Muroc Dry Lake, to provide flight surgeons with a dynamic stress analysis of the human body and a basis for designing pilot - 2 - and passenger safety harnesses. "For the first time the 'air crew decelerator' has given aeromedical science heretofore unobtainable data on how much terrific deceleration a man can stand in a crash.

  • Understanding Car Crashes: When Physics Meets Biology
    Understanding Car Crashes When Physics Meets Biology Teacher’s guide for grades 9-12 This teaching guide will help you to: Effectively present the video in your classroom Teach inquiry-based “Crash Science” lessons Integrate life science and physical science concepts Address National Science Education Standards Stimulate students’ interest in modern crashworthiness ©2008 Insurance Institute for Highway Safety 1005 N. Glebe Road, Arlington, VA 22201 How to use this guide The lessons in this guide introduce students to the science of car crashes with high-interest, grade-level appropriate activities designed to meet National Science Education Standards. Students will learn why a crash is a potentially devastating event. They will gain new perspective on how crash forces are measured and evaluated using crash test dummies, and they will see how these forces affect human anatomy and physiology. Teacher lesson plans and accompanying student activity sheets are provided. The lessons are intended to supplement a high school life science or integrated science curriculum with inquiry-based activities that demonstrate basic science principles and relate them to car crash injuries. Using the Video Concept Organizer The Video Concept Organizer serves as an advanced organizer of the content provided in the video. Students complete the low-order questions as they watch the video. Teachers may find it beneficial to stop the video periodically for students to collaborate on the answers. Once completed, the Video Concept Organizer may be used as a study guide and review sheet for the key concepts introduced in the video. Using the Post-Video Questions The Post-Video Questions are higher-order questions intended to stimulate discussion among students.

The 10 Most Outrageous Military Experiments by Jeremy Hsu NewScientist / April 29, 2009 No. 10 - Seeing Infrared The U.S. Navy wanted to boost sailors' night vision so they could spot infrared signal lights during World War II. However, infrared wavelengths are normally beyond the sensitivity of human eyes. Scientists knew Vitamin-A contained part of a specialized light-sensitive molecule in the eye's receptors and wondered if an alternate form of Vitamin-A could promote different light sensitivity in the eye. They fed volunteers supplements made from the livers of walleyed pikes. Their volunteers' vision began changing over several months to extend into the infrared region. Such early success went down the drain after other researchers developed an electronic snooperscope to see infrared and the human study was abandoned. Other nations also played with Vitamin-A during World War II. Japan fed its pilots a preparation that boosted Vitamin-A absorption and saw their night vision improve by 100 percent in some cases. Seen through a night-vision device, a U.S. Army soldier re-arms an OH-58 Kiowa Warrior helicopter with a rocket during night aerial gunnery at the Pohakuloa Training Area, Hawaii, Feb.
