CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.
Oct. IT (AP).-Two sentry
satellites raced through space
today on a crecy-cloaked mis-
sion aimed at perfecting a
foolproof means of policing the
limited nuclear test-ban treaty.
Their assignment: Determine
the feasibility of using satel-
lte-borne instruments to detect
nuclear explosions as far as 200
million miles from earth. The
treaty forbids such blasts in
outer space.

Because of a complex flight
pattern intended to place the
two satellites into widely sep
arated, 81, 000-mile-high orbits,
officials will not know until
Saturday whether the early
phase Of the mission is COM
pletely successful.

No official announcement is

Despite the secrecy, newsmen
were alerted and watched from
nearby beaches when the Atlas
Agena booster rocket blasted
off at 1882 (EDT) last night
with the two satellites aboard.
1t was the first time in six
months that reporters had been
barred from Cape Canaveral
for a launching.
Reliable sources reported the
satellites had separated and
settled into great egg-shaped
orbits ranging from $50 to ST.
600 miles above the earth. AS
the space messengers streaked
upward, they were about 20
miles apart.
