Political Earthlings Nearly Kill U S Planetary Probes
National recap of a House Senate conference on NASA funding. Negotiators preserved the planetary exploration program with a $4.9 billion total NASA appropriation for the current year, balancing cuts across Apollo missions and launch vehicles while restoring most Voyager funds. The plan limits a Mars Mariner 1971 reentry project and negotiates adjustments against Senate and House figures. The result preserves major planetary exploration while trimming final budget lines.

Aboard USS Will Rogers off Cape Kennedy, a Polaris A3 missile broke from the sea for a 1,500 mile test, signaling the end of one era and the rise of Poseidon. The event closed seven years of escalating sea based missile development, with Adm Holmes reporting to President Johnson and Harlan Cleveland leading dignitaries. The Will Rogers, the 41st fleet ballistic sub, will patrol after shakedown as the Navy refines its missile program for 1970 71 deployment.

Magnetic braking slows stars not planets says scientist
Dr. Robert Kraft of Mt. Wilson Palomar observatories reports study of about 200 sun like stars showing slow rotation results from expanding magnetic fields rather than planetary influence. Solar wind clouds carry magnetic flux lines that act like rubber bands, applying torque to slow stellar spin.
