Signal Beamed To Venus Advances Space Navigation
An 84 foot dish at Westford Massachusetts sent a 300 kilowatt radar signal to Venus and received the echo five minutes later. The 56 million mile round trip in February 1958 used 10 cents of electricity and required half a billion calculations on an MIT electronic computer. Lincoln Laboratory scientists say the result marks the first precise interplanetary distance measurement and aids future space navigation.
