  • Abstract
    Problems encountered making photoelectric observations of stars from spinning rockets have been solved by using photon pulse counting. The counter states were suitably encoded so as to permit the transmission of all useful data within the limits of two analogue telemetry channels of restricted bandwidth. The logic system is described and resulting data shown.
