Zorgon found this very strange pic in the Apollo Archives. The big thing is apparently a pressure chamber. I need to know if anyone recognizes any of the men in the pic, if it's from a film or if the setting is familar and if anyone has any further details on it (btw, if you have a graphics program, check out the bulletin board in the picture. it's ...well..... freaky.) For some reason, the people in this pic seem familar. Is it because they are famous scientists or is it from some film? This is probably the singlemost weird image I've ever seen, all things considered. Did i mention you should check out the bulletin board in the image?

Preleminary crop and zoom of particular areas...
Several look disc shaped.
The ones in the middle, could those be helmets?
Farthest Left could be the object the gentlemen are standing next to.
The last on the bottom left appears to be a diagram of something (sorry can't figure it out)

In regards to your statement on something appearing to be "obvious", you have a PM...

Their eyes are not human! They way they stare at the camera is VERY strange.

Left to right: Eastman Jacobs, Shorty Defoe, Malvern Powell, and Harold Turner. In this photo taken on March 15, 1929, a quartet of NACA staff conduct tests on airfoils in the Variable Density Tunnel. (In 1985, the Variable Density Tunnel was declared a National Historic Landmark.) Eastman Jacobs is sitting (far left) at the control panel'.


Hope it helps.

From looking at the bulletin board, It looks like the top leftmost pic is of a zeppelin aka airship. There are also disc shaped craft, and even classic cigar
shaped craft! excellent find.

I guess I should point out that you are actually looking at negatives (it is what they used to use before digital photographing) if you invert the image you'll get a better idea of what you are looking at.
just mho
carry on
