Since the appearance of the last number of this Bulletin I have had the good fortune to find the outer cover of the King's College manuscript of Almeida's History of Ethiopia, which had hitherto been missing. The discovery is important, for attached to this cover there was not only the original title page, but also the “Preliminary Matter” referred to by Marsden in his Catalogue, occupying in all eleven folios.

The objective of this study was to develop and deploy a novel motion capture system that utilizes off-the-shelf, dive-rated hardware to measure 3-D whole body reach envelopes of space suits in an underwater analog, which simulates a microgravity environment. The accuracy of the developed system was compared to a gold standard motion capture system in a dry-land condition before deployment. This study is ultimately aimed at providing a methodology for quantitative metrics to evaluate and compare the mobility performances of a newly developed prototype space suit versus an existing space suit at the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) at NASA’s Johnson Space Center.
