“Pressure suit helmet is adjusted for Haydon Y. Grubbs Jr. during check-out preceding a long-duration mission in a simulated lunar roving vehicle at Honeywell’s Systems and Research Division in Minneapolis. Assisting Grubbs are John Haaland, right, a Honeywell biophysicist, and Michael J. Vaccaro, Grubbs’s “roommate.” Vaccaro is deputy chief of the design integration and criteria branch, vehicle systems division, at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center. Grubbs is chief of the branch’s bioastronautics section.”

The following are pertinent extracts from an interim technical report entitled “MAN SYSTEM CRITERIA FOR EXTRATERRESTRIAL ROVING VEHICLES, Phase IB—The LUNEX II Simulation”:

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Mssrs. Haydon Y. Grubbs and Michael J. Vaccaro of the Systems Engineering Branch, Propulsion and Vehicle Engineering Laboratory, Marshall Space Flight Center, NASA, served as subjects during the experiment described herein. The pressure suits used during the experiments were provided by the Crew Systems Division, Manned Spacecraft Center, NASA. The cooperation and close support of these two centers was extremely helpful in the planning and conduct of the study…

ABSTRACT
An 18-day lunar surface mission was simulated under laboratory conditions with two NASA engineers as test subjects. The purpose of the simulation was to validate a minimum-volume cabin design for a lunar roving vehicle. The cabin contained a free volume of 3.26 cubic meters (i15. 3 cubic feet) in the main living space and 36 cubic meters (48 cubic feet) in the airlock. The cabin had a maximum floor-to-ceiling height of 166.0 centimeters (65.4 inches). The cabin was evaluated with subjects performing representative scientific and mission-oriented tasks in accordance with crew mission timelines developed in connection with this study. A 16-hour on and 8-hour off work-rest schedule was used. Subjects were given a 3000-calorie per day diet provided in four meals per day.

The subjects were evaluated by performance and physiological measures. Driving, monitoring, navigation, sample measurement and audio balancing tasks were performed. Selected geophysical tasks requiring simple but realistic measures contributed to simulation realism. Subjects' maximum oxygen capacity and the associated heart and respiratory rates were obtained before and immediately after the simulation by measuring oxygen consumption during graded treadmill runs. By this means, each subject was physiologically calibrated and pre- and post-simulation physical fitness evaluated. Throughout the simulation heart and respiratory rates were also taken continuously via a biotelemetry system.

Water balance and urine analyses were performed. Selected simulated emergencies were performed to evaluate the interaction of the subjects in pressurized state-of-the-art Apollo suits with the vehicle interior volumes and workspace layout. Subjects performed daily extravehicular activities while wearing inflated pressure suits. Representative physiological stresses were obtained during extravehicular activities by performing walks up to 4.15 kilometers per hour (2.6 miles per hour) on a treadmill while wearing inflated pressure suits. All simulated tasks were performed at 1 atmosphere pressure. The performance data was analyzed by simple statistics, daily means and standard deviations being calculated by computer for each principal task. Graphical analysis was used to evaluate trends or irregularities in the task data.

No adverse trends or marked irregularities were noted in the performance data of either subject throughout the 18-day simulation. Both subjects maintained satisfactory performance levels and physical condition throughout the simulation with no adverse effects attributable to the extended period of living and working in the vehicle simulator being observed.”
