Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA) Administrator Robert Seamans addresses the crowd at the dedication ceremony for the Mod-0 100-kilowatt wind turbine at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Plum Brook Station. The wind turbine program was a joint NASA/ERDA effort to develop less expensive forms of energy during the 1970s. NASA Lewis was able to use its experience with aerodynamics, powerplants, and energy transfer to develop efficient and cost-effective wind energy systems. The Plum Brook wind turbine was the first of a series of increasingly powerful NASA-ERDA wind turbines built around the nation. From left to right: Congressional Committee aide John Dugan, retired S. Morgan Smith Company chief engineer Carl Wilcox, windmill pioneer Beauchamp Smith, NASA Administrator James Fletcher, Seamans, and Lewis Center Director Bruce Lundin. The three men to the right are unidentified.

During Underway Recovery Test-8, Navy Seaman Daniel Ricci helps manage the lines to help control a test version of the Orion spacecraft as it is brought into the well deck of the USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26). During this first full mission profile test of the recovery procedures for Artemis I, NASA’s Landing and Recovery team met their objectives.

Two US Congressmen, accompanied by NASA Administrator James E. Webb, visited the Marshall Space Flight Center (MSFC) April 28, 1964, for a briefing on the Saturn program and a tour of the facilities. They are (left to right) Congressman Gerald Ford Jr., Republican representative of Michigan; Dr. Wernher von Braun, MSFC director; Congressman George H. Mahon, Democratic representative of Texas; and Mr. Webb. Not pictured is Dr. Robert Seamans, associate administrator, who was also in the group.
From the USS John P. Murtha, Engineman 2nd Class Christian Maldonado, at right, reaches for a tending line that Seaman Dante Jones, at left, will grab. The crew will then attach the line to the test version of the Orion capsule to help guide into the ship's well deck during Underway Recovery Test-7 (URT-7) on Nov. 1, 2018. URT-7 is one in a series of tests to verify and validate procedures and hardware that will be used to recover the Orion spacecraft after it splashes down in the Pacific Ocean following deep space exploration missions. Orion will have emergency abort capability, sustain the crew during space travel and provide safe re-entry from deep space return velocities.
S65-33250 (11 June 1965) --- President Lyndon B. Johnson holds a Gemini-4 souvenir photo album which he was presented during his visit to the space center. Left to right, are James E.
