I observed what some here seem to not understand about the review process. I will, however, have to correct something I said - sometimes reviewers have been exposed to gear that they choose not to pursue for publication. I saw a couple pieces of Halcro gear at Sea Cliff that were never reviewed. He was not a fan of their sterile character. ;) Naturally, I feel spoiled in that I was privy to knowing the preferences of three reviewers and could place their individualized observations in context. |

IBM was the supplier and used a large System/360 for tracking purposes and a custom hand built module using core memory for the onboard instrument section. Here's a video with one of the former engineer's explaining its operation: View YouTube Video |
