Blue Scout Rocket Lifts Off From Point Arguello
A 40 foot Blue Scout solid fuel rocket carried a 29 pound package of instruments to measure space radiation. The Air Force said all four stages fired as planned and the mission would take about six hours. The saucer shaped payload should fall back into the atmosphere and burn up about 12 hours after launch. It includes instruments to measure low energy protons from the sun and a new telemetry system. The flight targets a distant point over which signals can be broadcast from the South Pole, about 27 600 miles away, with power much less than a flashlight bulb.
