Weather Satellite Launch Aims to Track 1963 Hurricanes
CAPE CANAVERAL Fla AP The seventh TIROS weather satellite blasted toward an intended orbit to spot hurricanes and typhoons. The Delta rocket of three stages lifted off at 4 50 am, with second and third stages igniting successfully about 10 minutes later. The 90 foot rocket illuminated the predawn sky as it headed northeast, its trail visible in the night air. TIROS 7 plans to photograph hurricane grounds in the Atlantic and Caribbean, then switch to cloud cover pictures in the Southern Hemisphere before resuming Northern Hemisphere coverage during peak hurricane activity in August and September. TIROS 6 remains partially active, with both satellites alternating observations over typhoon regions in the Pacific as meteorologists pursue potential storm control methods.
