Were there any changes/looking out the side cross your __ and back?

No. I don't recall any. We talked about that too and I couldn't recall that they looked any different in one direction than they did in another.

(Question, inaudible)....?

No.

(Statement, inaudible)...

It might well have something to do with differences in electrostatic potential. ____

(Question, inaudible)....?

The drift would be like--well if you were looking out--well if a snow flake come drifting by the window is something goes I very rapidly, of course. As I was looking out the window, there be/little particles just come __ just come up across the window and maybe __ around and then drift away and as it got out there a little bit it just seemed to assume its position out here.

(Statement, inaudible)...

Oh, no. It was not a thing where the thing just came around on/very smooth trajectory and run off like this. It would drift up around here like that and then it would drift off on it own. It looked very much--it just looked like snow. It looked like snow you would see in a wind tunnel only with a single particle.

Do you have any __ on your capsule?

I'm sure there is. I don't know what it is but I'm sure there must be some.
