A pilot at the Aerospace Research Pilot School in Edwards Air Force Base, California, is seen seated in the Reaction control simulator used to practice controlling space vehicles. He reaches up to pull down a cover. An Air Force Sergeant, monitoring the device, secures it and small hatch at its front. Next, the camera focuses on the simulator, which is seen to move very slowly under the control of the pilot inside. After a while, the simulator makes a significant turn to the left, followed by an increase in elevation, and a turn to the right and what appears to be a return to its initial starting position.

Interior of a physical testing and examination room at the U.S. Air Force Aerospace Research Pilot School in Edwards Air Force Base, California. A white coated physician or technician observes as a pilot begins walking on a treadmill. The pilot has instruments fastened to his wrists and waist to transmit data to large machines standing nearby. Another pilot is lying, strapped to a cot in the room. That cot begins to rotate, placing the occupant in a head-down position, just as Brigadier General James Stewart enters accompanied by a guide in a business suit, who points to the heads-down pilot and explains something about what is happening. At this point, the entire sequence is re-shown. And it is repeated once more, again. Closeup of General Stewart speaking, as the pilot on treadmill continues walking in the background. Stewart looks down at the pilot (not seen) on the tilted cot and then turns toward the pilot on the treadmill, and finally, back, again, to the man (not seen) on the tilted cot.
