In address before joint American Assembly–British Institute for Strategic Studies conference at Brighton, England, John J. McCloy urged Western Europe to forego its aspirations to become a third space power and to cooperate with the U.S. in the exploration of space. Mr. McCloy, chairman of the General Advisory Committee to the U.S. Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, appealed to the 70 delegates that once the leaders of the Soviet Union "sensed a united position on the part of the West, they are prepared to moderate their views accordingly." When dealing with the Soviet Union on space issues, McCloy stated: "Questions of international prestige quickly emerge and we are still plagued with the almost frenetic antipathy of the Soviet Union to inspection."
MSFC Ad Hoc Evaluation Team was established for design review of the Centaur vehicle.
