Marine Institute Research Scientist
Authors Article on Aquatic Microcosms

Office Gave 200
And Their Relationship to Space Travel Opirions in 1963
Dr. Robert J. Beyers, re-
search scientist at the Insti-
tu'.e of Marine Science, Port
Aransas, has published a pa-
per in The American Biology
Teach entitled "Balanced
Aquatic M crocosm: Their
Implications for Space
Travel.”

The announcement was
made by John
Jr., executive
the Institute. '
In making the announce-
ment, .he said, "Dr. Beyers
has experiment'd with many
small aquarium microcosm;
over the last several years
including fresh water sys-
tems, a marine algal mat, a
hot springs microcosm, a tem-
porary pend type microcosm
and a brine microcosm.
He said. Dr Beyer used
outdoors and on a large scale,
an artificial oyster reef and
two different types of isolated
coral heads in the experi
ments.
Thompson summarized the
article as follows:
"Man developed during
primievcl times as an integ-
ral part of a large biological
organization called an ecosys-
tem. Since man is at present
supported by this same eco-
system, it is presumed that
any system designed to pro-
vide for the needs of man

length of time from the
earth—for example during
space travel or life on an

In all Dr Beyer's aquaria,
he said the same balance has
been found and "any distrub-
ance of this balance must be J
accounted for by a growth
or starvation within the sys-
tem. Similarly th ref ore, any.

inion and its release was 22

the preceding year.
The attorney general is
charged by the Constitution
and statutes cf Texas with
the duty of giving legal ad-

Among those so designated
are the governor, heads of
