ANOTHER FAILURE . . .
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. W —
An attempt to launch a flashing
light geodetic satellite into orbit
failed yesterday when the second
stage of the launching vehicle did
not ignite.
If successful, the satellite would
have helped make more accurate
I maps of the world.
The 355-pound payload was pro
pelled aloft by a Thor-Able-Star
rocket. The early portion of flight
appeared normal as the 79-foot-tall
booster streaked swiftly from sight.
However, the Defense Depart
ment announced about 20 minutes
later that preliminary telemetry
reports indicate that the satellite
had failed to go into orbit.
By giving scientists a known
point in space to be photographed
against a background of stars, the
satellite would have allowed them
to make better measurements of
the earth’s surface.
The Defense Department has a
backup payload prepared and is
expected to launch it within a
few months after yesterday’s
rocket trouble has been analyzed
and corrected.
This was the second straight
failure for a Thor-Able-Star
rocket, which earlier had been suc
cessful in placing a number of
transit navigation satellites in orbit.
This also was the fourth rocket
failure in three days at the Cape.
On Monday the first Centaur space
rocket exploded in flight. Wed
nesday a Pershing and a Polaris
were destroyed when they wander
ed off course during a pair of
military launchings.
First specific Mother’s Day in
the United States was not a popu
lar success. Miss Mary Towles
Sasseen, a Henderson, Ky., school
teacher, began holding annual ex
ercises to honor mothers in 1887.
