It's the little things that m a k e the big difference in guided missile development. A n d that's the No. 1 reason for N o r t h American's success. F o r you see, N o r t h American pays attention to t h e little t h i n g s . . . little things like t h e redistillation of commercially distilled w a t e r (right). On the surface, that might appear to be a r a t h e r insignificant procedure. B u t actually, North American missile research is so exact, even the most minute amount of organic matter found in commercially distilled water renders it useless for experimental purposes.

North American's extremely advanced research facilities point up the fantastic type of equipment placed at the disposal of N o r t h American scientists—equipment as perfect in every detail as is humanly possible. Typical of these are the field laboratory at Santa Susana, California, with complete facilities for the testing of very large rocket engines, N o r t h American's own nuclear reactor for special research in atomic power, and a 16 χ 16 inch supersonic wind tunnel—the largest privately owned wind tunnel of its type.
