FOX TV NEWS: THE ASTRONAUT
EXPERIENCE, aired on 09/09/09
Training in the MAD
Machine
Physiologic training will occur in our MAD machine. This stands
for Multi-Axis Disorientation, a rotating apparatus designed to
simulate the sensations of space travel.
Similar to the equipment developed by NASA in the 1960s for use
in the training programs of the Apollo and Gemini astronauts,
this gyroscope has enabled astronauts to become comfortable with
the simulated experience of weightlessness and the roll and tumble
associated with outer space.
Over the years, a similar program was also introduced into many
of the Airforces around the world for the training of jet fighter
pilots.
Our machine has been built and tested for high safety standards,
and it can accommodate children and adults alike, up to a maximum
of 250 lbs.
