VPI is particularly indebted to the Langley Research Center of NASA for assistance in planning the conference and to the NASA in general for providing many of the speakers and session chairmen. The helpful co-operation of Poly-Scientific Division, Litton Precision i Products, Inc. of Blacksburg, for arranging a plant tour showing their facil- ities for manufacturing slip rings and torque motors and for sponsoring the reception before the banquet is also acknowledged, i The conference committee wishes also to express its gratitude to the conference speakers, session chairmen and local personnel who have contri- i ! buted to the success of the meeting. _ The Conference Committee M.

Grotmd simulation of these problems is a kighly challenging area of the entire space effort. This conference represents an attempt to outline the principles governing simulation in general, to explore its limits in design, fabri- cation and operation and to correlate early studies _ith information gain- ed from actual flights to date. A large fraction of the total investment of manpower, materials and money in the space effort will continue to be devoted toward ground sim- ulation of space environment and operations. Many scientists (from al3 branches of physical and life sciences) and engineers are engaged in this effort. It was the purpose of the conference to present to educational per- sonnel and to representatives from industry and government agencies the most recent efforts and results in the field of ground simulation, The benefits of such a conference to educational personnel are twofold; to acquaint them with the type of activity in which many of their present students will be engaged and to open new directions for their own in- vest igations, The participation of scientists from industry and government agencies was welcomed and it is hoped that by discussion they contributed to the general understanding and it is further hoped that they profited by association with others in their field. 1966019609-006 J CONFERENCE ATTENDEES LIST OF SPEAKERS GEORGE A.
