New Mexico Museum of Space History celebrates scientific advances

BY TERRY TURNER‌

ALAMOGORDO, N.M. – Many advances in space travel and exploration were first discovered and developed in wide open spaces of New Mexico. The history of those scientific achievements is being saved at the New Mexico Museum of Space History. The museum has everything from an 86-foottall rocket to a tiny moon rock from the Apollo 17 mission in 1972.

Some of the larger exhibits and artifacts are on display outside the museum in the John P. Stapp Air and Space Park. The park is named for aeromedical pioneer Dr. John P. Stapp. The Sonic Wind I rocket sled on display in the park was developed and tested by Dr. Stapp. The purpose of the sled was to test the effects of sudden deceleration on the human body.

The sled was powered by nine solid fuel rockets with 40,000 pounds of total thrust and would burn for 5 seconds.

On March 19, 1954, Stapp rode the sled that reached a speed of 613 feet per second.

During acceleration Stapp was subjected to a force of 22 times that of gravity. He made two other runs with the sled with the last test reaching a speed of 632 miles per hour causing a force of 40 g’s on Stapp’s body.

Also on display in the park is the 86-foot-tall Little Joe II rocket used to test the Apollo Launch Escape System. The Little Joe II is the largest rocket ever launched in New Mexico. Remnants of a V-2 German WWII rocket developed by Nazi Germany as a

terror weapon against Britain and other Allied countries is also on display near the Little Joe II. The portions of the V-2 at the museum were recovered from the White Sands Missile Range where the rockets were used for research. The V-2 stood 42 feet tall.

Inside the museum are galleries devoted to different areas of space history and travel. The Living and Working in Space area shows how scientists worked to create solutions for the problems of extreme environment in space travel. On display are space suits and clothing worn

by astronauts, a space toilet and American and Soviet space food.

A rocket exhibit tells the history of rocketry and honors pioneers in the field such as Robert Goddard, who developed the first liquid fuel rocket engine. Visitors are encouraged to push a button and listen to the distinctive sounds of different rocket engines. Instruments from German V-2 rockets tested at White Sands Missile Range are on display along with the training coveralls worn

by New Mexico astronaut Harrison Schmitt, the only scientist to walk on the moon.

The museum’s International Space Hall of Fame was established in 1976 to recognize the achievements of those who have worked to expand the ability to explore space. Astronauts such as Buzz Aldrin, Gordon Cooper, Frank Borman and Alan Shepard have been honored.

Those who have supported the space program such as newsman Walter Cronkite are also honored.

The lunar sample was picked up by Astronaut Harrison Schmitt in December 1972.

The moon rock is estimated to be 3.7 billion years old.

Also on display in the Icons of Exploration are replicas of the first man-made satellites, Sputnik and Explorer.

The museum features the New Horizons Dome Theater

and Planetarium, named for the spacecraft that flew by Pluto in 2015. It is the first dome theater in the world to have the Spitz SciDome 4k Laser full dome planetarium system. The theater offers giant screen films, full dome digital planetarium shows and live astronomy talks.

first primate to be launched into space. Ham, which is an acronym for Holloman Aero Med, was a chimpanzee born in Central Africa who was captured and sent to a farm in Miami, Florida. He was later purchased by the U.S. Air Force.

Ham was trained to respond to lights and sounds. He made a suborbital flight as part of

Project Mercury on January 31, 1961, perched on top of a Redstone rocket. The information gained from Ham’s flight allowed astronaut Alan Shepard to make the first human spaceflight as part of Project Mercury in May 1961.

The plaque dedicated to Ham reads in part, “Ham proved that mankind could live and work in space.”

Terry’s Turn

Downsizing is not for sissies For the past almost 30 years my wife and I have been living in a cavernous two-story, four-bedroom home complete with attic and basement. It was perfect when we had young kids but now it’s just too big. So, we made the decision to downsize and move to a much smaller apartment.

I wasn’t completely convinced I wanted to return to apartment living but Terry Turner the allure of turnert185@outlook.com someone else doing the maintenance, someone else mowing the lawn and someone else shoveling the sidewalks was just too great. We found a very nice apartment complex and put down a deposit to hold it for a couple of months while we worked on selling our house.

The first thing we needed to do was get rid of all the unnecessary junk we’d accumulated over the past decades. When I say “junk” I really mean the stuff my wife has collected. I only had priceless treasures, or so I thought. But no matter what we called it, it all had to go.

The first step was to go through everything and sort it by this goes to the trash, this to a charitable thrift store, this I’ll keep and this I’ll sell.

Sorting everything out made us realize how much stuff we’d collected over the years. It wasn’t quite like the TV show “Hoarders” but it was close. Once we had everything separated we then had to decide how to dispose of the sell pile. We could have several garage sales or we could have an auction. The auction option sounded like a better way to go.

I called an auctioneer and he

came over. He walked through the house making notes as he went. He explained those notes would be used in his advertising. “Quilting supplies, hand tools, power tools, antiques…”

Antiques? I asked myself. I didn’t know we had any antiques. Old stuff, yes, but antiques? Oh well.

Then the big day came. A crew of workers arrived early in the morning and got busy setting up tables and putting all my valuables out for display. It was like having my entire life spread out on the lawn for all the world to see. I looked at all my valuable possessions and it broke my heart. My beloved power tools would soon be gone. My riding mower would be ridden by a stranger. And that thing with wires hanging out would no longer be mine. It was heartbreaking. I went inside.

I watched as hordes of bargain seekers wandered among my treasured possessions. I fought back the temptation to retrieve some of my valuables. I kept telling myself, “You don’t have room for that 6-foot-tall bandsaw or that beautiful workbench. What are you going to do with an extension ladder in an apartment?

It all has to go.”

About that time my son-in-law came over and we went inside to replace a light fixture in the kitchen.

Well, he replaced it while I watched and occasionally handed him a tool. I could hear the auctioneer’s staccato voice over his portable loudspeaker as he sold my treasures. I almost cried.

Then it was done and I walked outside. People were loading up their spoils. It was like I was a carcass on the desert and the vultures were picking me clean. I solemnly walked over to the auctioneer and he told me it went pretty good. Then he handed me a check. I looked at the check.

Hmmmmm…I didn’t want all that junk anyway.
