JSC reported that another 20 Shuttle astronaut applicants would report for individual interviews and physical examinations; the group included 17 pilot and 3 mission specialist applicants. Eight of the applicants were from the USAF; 6, Navy; 2, Marines; 4, civilians. Of the more than 8000 applicants, about 200 would go to JSC for screening, the final group due in mid-Nov. and selections in Dec. (JSC Release 77-54; NASA Release 77-205)

MSFC announced that solar energy would provide heat for some of the center this winter. A system already completed would supply 50% of the heat for one office building; solar collectors being installed on another would supply hot water. A flat-plate solar collector on the 10-story center headquarters building would be supplying hot water by July 1978. (MSFC Release 77-178)
