Bill Fecych and Don Johnson in control room in 1959.

Bill Fecych (seated) and Don Johnson work in the reactor control room at Plum Brook Station during its operating days in 1959. After an ad hoc committee study in 1977, NASA Headquarters decided that the reactor would never be put back into operation. Reactor equipment was then "cannibalized" for other programs.
