The Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory facilities and activities in the United States
In the context of Unidentifed Flying Object (UFO) research: Narrator describes the sixteen cameras of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) as camera shows one, of atop a multistory building. A map shows several locations in the state of Nebraska. Next, in a closeup, Dr. Richard E. McCrosky, Director of SAO, shows a model of a small building housing aerial mapping cameras. He removes the roof of the model to show how the cameras are installed and turned on by light sensors. He shows a film of a bright object photographed by such a camera installation. Asked about other inputs, Dr. McCrosky mentions the satellite tracking network, and a map shows the 12 stations about the world. McClosky shows a model of a tracking camera contained in those installations. He shows a photograph of the Gemini rendezvous, when the NASA Gemini spacecraft numbers 6 and 7 came close to each other on December 15, 1965. Scene shifts to views of large radar installations and observatories, including equipment inside one. Animated view of Mariner space probe passing the planet Venus. Giant radar antennas rotating. Views of the milky way galaxy and our solar system. Photos of nebulae from the Mount Palomar Telescope. Radio telescope installations, including the one in Arecibo, Puerto Rico.
Views of Planet Earth taken from earth orbit. NASA Gemini spacecraft maneuvering and Astronauts working outside them.
Views from NASA Gemini spacecraft maneuvering close to Agena vehicle in space. A dacron tether attaching a Gemini craft to the Agena space vehicle. The tether held taut by the differential gravitational pull on the two space vehicles (Agena being closer to earth). Astronaut Ed White, performing the first extra vehicular activity (space walk) during the Gemini IV mission in June 1965. His overglove is seen floating past him. He performs work in space using special tools. Views of other astronauts having difficulties during subsequent space walks. Astronaut Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin, pilot of Gemini XII, performs a series of tasks during a space walk test, proving the value of rest breaks, tethers, and handholds to facilitate such work in the weightlessness of space. He removes a hatch, that flies away. He tightens bolts.
