His aides Gizenga and Kashamura shape the posthumous power struggle as factions vie for control in Stanleyville and Leopoldville.

Test of Atlas and Mercury Capsule in Severe Reentry Flight
Project Mercury's space capsule faces a final severe reentry test using the Atlas booster.

The demonstration mirrors worst possible reentry, with 2000 degree heat and 16 g forces, to validate design and structure for an orbital flight later this year.
