HISTORICAL DIVER No.l4 Winter 1998 3 EDITORIAL An Avalanche and a Legend The first couple of months of this year have been our busiest yet. What was a mountain of work at the HDS office became an avalanche that has over run not only both of us but nearly all of the Society Directors too. The year began with the hugely successful visit of the Rouquayrol Denayrouze unit for the Dive Into History Program in Santa Barbara. Three days later we were all at DEMAin Anaheim for four days with Greg Platt, Jeff Dennis and Rocky Rockwell running our booth. A week after DEMA we appeared in New Orleans for Underwater Intervention '98. Once that was over the HDS booth traveled to the Boston Sea Rovers Show where John Strahan and Bob Rusnack teamed up with James Forte and Brad Doane to represent the Society. The next week end some of us went to cover the SEALAB Reunion in San Diego and a week after that the booth was in New York at the Beneath the Sea Show where Bob, Greg and John manned the stand. The outcome of all this activity was an enormous surge in new member­ ship. In a period of three months over 200 new members joined the Society, an increase of about 20%. Membership is now over 1200. With this increase in membership has come an associated increase in paperwork. Hence we have been a little behind in getting the new member packages and certificates out but are now up to speed. However, the Society is now at the stage where the officers and directors have to be focused on exactly where their energies are directed as they collectively have only a limited amount of volunteer time to apply to projects. The only major HDS project approved by the Board for the remainder of the year is the Film Festival honoring the work of Hans and Lotte Hass.

But of this extraordinary group of ocers, ocials and leaders, MAGAZINEMAGAZINE there are only nine that have been inducted into the IN RE IEW V JULY 2009 NPS Hall of Fame. Now there are 10. As part of the NPS Centennial Kick-O and Reunion Weekend, General Michael W. Hagee, 33rd Comman- dant of the U.S. Marine Corps and a 1969 Electrical Engineering graduate, was inducted as the tenth member of this illustrious group of inuential leaders. Centennial Year Kicks Off University Begins 100-Year Anniversary Celebration in Grand Style As head of the Marine Corps, Hagee was a tireless supporter of education for the military service. Major General Melvin Spiese, Commanding General of the Marine Corps Training and Education Command, called Hagee “a model of advanced education in the armed forces, and the value it brings to the service member and the service.” And at the Centennial Gala where he was honored, Hagee took the opportunity to reiterate his continuing support. “Today, technology and world events change so fast that we have to educate students for missions that don’t yet exist, to solve problems we don’t yet know, to respond to enemies that can adapt to our plans in seven to 10 days,” he noted during the event. “Innovation is more important than ever, and you can’t innovate without a good advanced educational foundation.

  • Inner to Outer Space
    Inner to Outer Space From where should NASA or the private industry select their next generation of astronauts? They need individuals with a thirst for adventure, meticulous attention to detail and unbridled enthusiasm for exploration. The best choice for new astronauts lies in the ocean depths. Astronauts and aquanauts (NAUTS) are very similar, and a relationship between the two groups already exists. On a leave of absence from NASA, U.S. Navy astronaut Scott Carpenter worked the “Man in the Sea” project as a team leader in 1965, where he directed the team of divers. Many of the same traits are required for both space and undersea explorers to be successful. From Night Stars to Sea Stars The transfer of desirable habits from using aquanauts to fulfill the role of astronauts would greatly propel space exploration by reducing required training time. Additionally, some of the safety precautions and bailouts used in rebreather and expedition / exploration diving could be useful tools for space exploration. Differences also exist between these two subcultures. Present-day astronauts ride in a large (2 thousand ton) rocket into space, orbiting the earth at 8 kilometers per second at altitudes between 180 and 650 kilometers. Aquanauts descend in a pressurized bell, as free-swimming divers or in a chamber, to depths of between 10 and 600 meters of sea water (msw) at a rate of between 3 and 40 meters per minute; they remain in that high-pressure environment until they decompress. Even the differences have similarities though. When divers descend, the partial pressure of the gases they breathe (oxygen, helium or nitrogen) increases, according to Dalton’s Law.

    Biographical Data Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center Houston, Texas 77058 National Aeronautics and Space Administration SCOTT CARPENTER NASA ASTRONAUT (FORMER) Scott Carpenter, a dynamic pioneer of modern exploration, has the unique distinction of being the first human ever to penetrate both inner and outer space, thereby acquiring the dual title, Astronaut/Aquanaut. He was born in Boulder, Colorado, on May 1, 1925, the son of research chemist Dr. M. Scott Carpenter and Florence Kelso Noxon Carpenter. He attended the University of Colorado from 1945 to 1949 and received a bachelor of science degree in Aeronautical Engineering. Carpenter was commissioned in the U.S. Navy in 1949. He was given flight training at Pensacola, Florida and Corpus Christi, Texas and designated a Naval Aviator in April, 1951. During the Korean War he served with patrol Squadron Six, flying anti-submarine, ship surveillance, and aerial mining, and ferret missions in the Yellow Sea, South China Sea, and the Formosa Straits. He attended the Navy Test Pilot School at Patuxent River, Maryland, in 1954 and was subsequently assigned to the Electronics Test Division of the Naval Air Test Center, also at Patuxent. In that assignment he flew tests in every type of naval aircraft, including multi- and single-engine jet and propeller-driven fighters, attack planes, patrol bombers, transports, and seaplanes. From 1957 to 1959 he attended the Navy General Line School and the Navy Air Intelligence School and was then assigned as Air Intelligence Officer to the Aircraft Carrier, USS Hornet. Carpenter was selected as one of the original seven Mercury Astronauts on April 9, 1959.
