Rocket Device Climbs 5OMIes
For Picture of Suns Spectrum

| An angstrom is an expression
used in defining the length of
light waves. It is equal to one
en-thousandth of a micron or
one hundred-millionth of a CEN
timeter.
Much of that radiation is con-
centrated in spectrum line at
1926 angstrom units, or the So
called Lyman Alpha line. It was
what the university scientists
hope to get and succeeded in
photographing.
DR.. Pietenpol explained that
solar radiation is the cause of
ionospheric layers in the upper
atmosphere and those stratified
concentrations of electrons can
be observed by radio wave re-
Election and are an important
factor in radio propagation.
The ionosphere rises from the
absorption Of ultraviolet radia-
ton from the sun, DR.. Pietenpol
continued, and the absorption
has great meteorological signi-
f1cance.
The University Of Colorado re-
search is supported by the Air
Force Cambridge Research Gen.
ter, geophysics division. Re-
search cooperation came from
DR.. Marcus ODay and DR.. How
ard Edwards of the Cambridge
laboratories.

BOULDER, Colo, Jan. IT,
A rocket carried an instrument
designed by University of
Colorado scientists so miles
above the earth for the first
pictures of the suns spectrum
in extreme ultraviolet wave
lengths.
The rocket was fired last
month at Holloman Research
and Development Center, New
Mexico, and results of the tests
were announced yesterday by DR..
w. B. Pietenpol, head of the
university's physics department.
He also is supervisor of the up
per atmosphere research pro-
gram.
DR.. Pietenpol reported that
university physicists have worked
three years to perfect what ne
said is a sun-seeking device or
pointing control for high
altitude rockets. The electronic-
mechanical device is designed
to hold an instrument pointed at
the sun while a rocket rolls and
yaws in flight.
1t also has to be rugged
enough to withstand the forces
of high acceleration and to op-
crate so that film can be ex-
posed. The Colorado scientist
SAID the instrument mounted in
the rocket fired last month
pointed directly at the sun for
considerable period and OBJ
tained a 28-second exposure of
the spectrum.
DR.. Pietenpol said that scien-
fists previously photographed
the spectrum to about 1000 ang-
strom units, but that in the
Colorado experiment powerful
ultraviolet radiation emitted by
the hydrogen in the suns at
mosphere was photographed for
the first time.
