Tiros 10 Satellite Begins Global Storm Recording Mission
CAPE KENNEDY Fla AP The Tiros 10 weather satellite circled the globe ready to record storms over a vast area. Launched on Thursday night atop a Delta rocket, it joins satellites 7 8 and 9 on space patrol to provide broad tropical storm coverage for the 1965 season. Ground controllers plan to optimize its two cameras for hurricane spawning grounds and expect over 400 daily photos covering nearly 80 percent of the earth. The Weather Bureau funded three satellites in 1963 for about 7 million, with Thursday night’s launch costing about 4.5 million including the Delta vehicle. The season runs through Oct 15 and initial cloud pictures are due Saturday or Sunday.
