Rocket Hitchhiker To Probe Nature's Mystery
A Navy led team will fire a Dan guided missile with a six inch Deacon rocket in 1957 to study solar flares and their radio and magnetic effects.

The Nike missile upper stage and Deacon booster could reach an altitude of about 75 miles, offering new data on solar activity and geomagnetic disturbances.
