After modifications in February and March 1950 at San Francisco Naval Shipyard, "Norton Sound" launched a five-ton Viking rocket 11 May in Project Reach. This rocket carried a 500-pound instrumentation package to an altitude of 106.4 miles (171 km), and provided data on cosmic rays. Project "Reach" concluded the first phase of "Norton Sound"'s use as a missile platform.
