About this book
NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930090745: First experiences with the rotating laboratory
Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)
Year: 1926
This report describes experiences with a rotating cylinder to explore the effects of motion and flow upon human sensory organs. One observation was that the variation of the resultant line of gravity (from gravity and centrifugal force) was not felt so strongly as might be expected. The impressions produced by the physical effects on the members of the body, especially the ones caused by the deflecting force (Coriolis force), are exactly what the laws of physics would lead us to expect, although somewhat surprising when observed in one's own body.
