Moon Adventure Best Trip Yet
SPACE CENTER Houston AP The Apollo 1 astronauts returned from the moon landing in better shape and more rested than earlier crews according to Dr. Charles Berry chief of space medicine. Armstrong Aldrin and Collins followed orders and rested, with minimal illness due to quarantine and high crew discipline. Armstrong and Aldrin reportedly slept 1 1/2 hours during a 22 hour lunar stay while the missions had fewer mechanical problems than prior flights. Berry noted only one period of heartbeat concern during the moon walk and said full comparisons to earth missions are not yet possible.
