Capsule Class Is Cramped But Costly Travel
Capsule class travel with John Glenn Jr features a $5 million ship built by McDonnell. The 6 by 9 foot sky cabin houses 164 instruments, with a “chicken switch” to start Atlas lift off. Glenn will orbit Earth in three 90 minute passes, view Earth and stars through a small window, and rely on ground-based life support and 28 hours of oxygen. Landing uses dual parachutes, braking rockets, and a sea escape option if needed.

Postal Bill Up Tuesday
WASHINGTON AP Major action is scheduled this week in both chambers on a postal rate bill and a tax measure. The postal bill would add a penny to mailing costs, boosting postal revenues to about 550 million with admin backed amendments lifting to about 621 million. Most gains come from higher first class and air mail rates with smaller increases for second and third class mail. The House Ways and Means Committee also pushes a tax reform bill expected for a House vote next month.
