Summary
(December 16, 1959) MASTIF - Multiple Axis Space Test Inertia Facility - was developed for Project Mercury to train astronauts in gaining control over a spacecraft that could move in multiple directions at once--pitching, rolling and yawing all at the same time. MASTIF was also known as the Gimbal Rig and is shown here in Altitude Wind Tunnel (AWT) at Lewis Research Center, now John H. Glenn Research Center at Lewis Field...Image # : C1959-230
