  Title: Astronauts Thornton and Bluford doing experiments on One-G trainer
  Description:
  Astronaut William E. Thornton conducts a medical test on Astronaut Guion S. 
  Bluford in the middeck section of JSC's One-G trainer for the shuttle 
  orbiter. The two mission specialists are demonstrating the head/eye
  tracking  experiment for STS-8. Bluford's head was in motion, as the test
  subject is to  move his head from side to side while blindfolded and
  electrode-fitted  (37626); Thornton and Bluford demonstrate an on-orbit
  experiment. The  treadmill device which Bluford is strapped into was
  designed by Dr. Thornton  (37627).
