Reduction, Analysis and Interpretation of Photographic Data

Abstract

During Project Aladdin, June 1974 at Wallops Island, measurements of thermospheric winds were obtained from observations of the motions of chemical vapors released from seven sounding rockets beginning in the evening twilight of 28 June and extending past noon on 30 June. The release materials were TMA during twilight and night and lithium during twilight and the day. The wind data obtained from those releases are contained in the report.
