Nov. 11, 1969 - Project Pegasus - The Effect of jet Travel of the Biological clock: Does the effect of high speed jet travel between Time Zones upset the traveller by air, Project Pgeeus, a unique study of the changes in human Physiology induced by high speed jet travel between Time Zones, was the subject of a news conference held by Syntax Pharmaceuticals Ltd. at the Waldorf Hotel. Aldwych, today, time zone changes are difficult to get used to. Travelling from North to South or vice cersa presents no problem, but from East to West or the other way can upset the traveller by air, For example, between London and San Francisco there is an sight hour difference, as there is easr bound between London and Hong Kong. For the first tome a programme has been devised to study a statistically significant number of subjects during a major time zone change from all possible biological points of view, including sleep changes (Rem and slow wave) sex hormone and steroid metabolism; adaption period to localietal time; influence on reasoning power, judgement, memory mood, reaction time and ebility to make decisions.
