Part of the control panel and interior of the hypobaric chamber the 359th Aeromedical Squadron uses on Randolph Air Force Base, Texas, to test and train aircrew for hypoxia, or altitude sickness. The latex glove hanging from the ceiling expands and contracts with the changes in barometric pressure in the chamber, it?s used to show how gases in the human body also expand and contract with pressure changes. The bottle of red liquid has an inverted beaker in it and is used to show how pressure affects air and liquid in the inner ear. (U. S. Air Force photo/Brian McGloin)
