Gas caused fainting on Apollo return to Earth aboard USS New Orleans
Apollo astronauts Thomas Stafford Vance Brand and Donald Slayton were kept in sick bay on the USS New Orleans after a mysterious gas entered the cabin at 23 000 feet during a nine day mission. Brand fainted briefly but recovered with oxygen while doctors found no medical problems. NASA speculated the gas stemmed from parachute or heat shield debris rather than a jet oxidizer leak.
