The cables are on rollars to permit forward or backward motion. The 1/6 G is obtained by walking on the plywood flooring is set at a slight angle to the vertical plane. The cabling attached to the overhead nearly straight above the plywood floor" when the man is strapped in the rig and lays out horizontal one cables holding him are then held out to more of an angle to the vertical. 63 As he walks in the horizontal position the offset angle of the cables give him an effective weight of 1/6 G. He then tries walking, umping, etc. at this simulated weight. 86 MS uping in Engineer, diff. angle. 107 123 MS Strapping in engineer leans into position. LS Completion of strapping in, man jumps and walks. (if MS Walking show at 1/6 G (View down on top of man's head. 175 MS king normal at 1/6 G. 192 Walking fast 204 Running 214 MS Jumping at 1/6 G. The rig has some limitations, obviously, one of them is jumping. The farther out away from the floor he gets Page 1 his weight will increase, because of the slight are he swings in. of 2 Consequently he can only jump about 8-9 ft. where on the moon he may be able to jump about 14 ft. 228 MS Jumping 242 MS C1 mbing a pole at 1/6 G. 260 MS Jamping up the pole at 1/6 G. at this weight it is easier to jump up a pole or over something than it is to climb 268 MCU Climbing ladder 276 LS Walking, head on from the front Form 62) SOURCE: Langle Research Center DATE RECD.
