Scott Carpenter with his daughter Kris Stoever clears up all lingering questions about his flight while telling the history of an amazing frontier family and the strength of the American pioneer spirit. Malcolm Scott Carpenter May 1 1925 - October 10 2013 was an American naval officer and aviator test pilot aeronautical engineer astronaut and aquanaut. He was one of the Mercury Seven astronauts. Carpenter was the second American after John Glenn to orbit the Earth and the fourth American in space after Alan Shepard Gus Grissom and Glenn. Carpenter became a naval aviator flying a Lockheed P-2 Neptune with Patrol Squadron 6 VP-6 on reconnaissance and anti-submarine warfare missions along the coasts of Soviet Union and China during the Korean War and the Cold War. In 1954 he became a test pilot. He was backup to Glenn during the latter's Mercury Atlas 6 orbital mission. Carpenter flew the next mission Mercury-Atlas 7 in the spacecraft he named Aurora 7. Due to a series of malfunctions the spacecraft landed 250 miles 400 km downrange from its intended splashdown point but both pilot and spacecraft were retrieved. Derived from a Kirkus review: Mercury astronaut Carpenter and his daughter tell his life story thus far. The immediacy of the story is exemplified in the description of the few hours when Carpenter is in his Aurora 7 orbiting Earth: he then takes control of the story much as he did his capsule when the fuel ran out due to equipment malfunction. Carpenter spent his early years in the company of his grandparents. As a military test plot at Patuxent he became a prime candidate for the Mercury Program. Description of the screening and selection process for that adventure its endless "psychophysiological nit-picking" hews closely to Tom Wolfe's handling of it in The Right Stuff. The space flight is the centerpiece a truly dangerous and punishing mission "I was trained to avoid any active intellectual comprehension of disaster" he notes as his spacecraft started to fail him. His work for SeaLab after the Mercury Program gets mentioned. Carpenter comes off the pages to reveal the elemental audacity we've come to associate with the seven Mercury astronauts.

Again thanking you for the trouble you have taken in this matter. I remain sincerely yours Th." ALONG WITH 2 from E. L. Mark Zoological Laboratory Cambridge Mass to Mrs. T.K. Gibbs Newport R.I. March 13 1911. "My Dear Mrs. Gibbs: I thought it might interest you to see brought together the zoological papers that have been written by holders of the Virginia Barret Gibbs Scholarship since 1894. I trust you will accept the two volumes which I am sending with this as a slight token of appreciation of the aid which this scholarship has already afforded to students in Zoology. When I think of the years to come and the many more men who will be helped while devoting themselves to biological problems I am sure the grounds are ample for offering you as I do my hearty congratulations. Quite by chance I learned through Miss Clark that your birthday is near at hand so I am taking the liberty of making that day the date of this little remembrance. With high esteem and good wishes I am as ever Sincerely E.L. Mark." THEODORE K. GIBBS 1840-1909 was born in Newport Rhode Island in 1840 and was the youngest son of Rhode Island Governor William Channing Gibbs. Gibbs enlisted in the United States Army in October 1861 as the second lieutenant of the 1st Regiment of the United States Artillery and served throughout the American Civil War 1861-1865. Gibbs and his wife Virginia Barrett d. 1926 maintained homes in both New York City and Newport. THE VIRGINIA BARRET GIBBS SCHOLARSHIP FUND was established in connection with the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College to support one or more students who may have shown decided talents in Zoology and preferably in the direction of Marine Zoology. His studies and researches may be conducted at the Natural History Laboratories of the Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard College at the Newport Marine Laboratory or at such European laboratories or other place on the sea-shore in this country or elsewhere as may be approved by the Faculty of the Museum of Comparative Zoology and by the Professors of Zoology and of Comparative Anatomy of Harvard University. –President's Report of Harvard College 1888-89 pub. 1890. ALEXANDER AGASSIZ 1835–1910 son of Louis Agassiz was an American scientist and engineer born in Neuchâtel Switzerland and immigrated to the United States with his father in 1849. Graduating from Harvard University with the degree of A.B. he entered the Lawrence Scientific School and two years later received from there the degree of Bachelor of Science. In 1859 he went to the Pacific coast where for a time he was engaged upon the North-West Boundary Survey. Upon his return in 1860 he became assistant in Zoology at the Museum of which he took charge during his father's absence in Brazil. From 1866 to 1869 he was superintendent of the Calumet and Hecla Copper Company which he developed from a state of insolvency into the most noted copper mine in the world. During the years 1869 and 1870 he carefully inspected the museums of England France Germany and Scandinavia after which he returned to his duties in Cambridge and succeeded his father as curator of the museum of comparative zoology which position he held until 1898 when he resigned to devote himself to his own expeditions. Agassiz served as a president of the National Academy of Sciences which since 1913 has awarded the Alexander Agassiz Medal in his memory. EDWARD LAURENS MARK 1847-1946 received his A.B. in 1871 from the University of Michigan. In 1873 he was the first American to obtain a doctorate in the laboratory of Rudolf Leuckart; receiving his Ph.D. in Zoology from the University of Leipzig in 1876. Bringing the cytological and histological approach with him to Harvard University in 1877 he was responsible for the introduction of advanced European microscopic techniques. After rising to Professor of Anatomy in 1885 he served as Director Bermuda Biological Station for Research from 1902 to 1931. Founded by Louis Agassiz the University's Museum of Comparative Zoology became the main center of zoological training in 19th century America. His students included Alexander Agassiz and Theodore Roosevelt. A prolific author Mark was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1903. THE MONOGRAPHS: VOLUME I: C. A. KOFOID.
