Laser Beams
Missing
Moon Target
MOUNT HAMILTON Calif.
(UPl)—Moon shooters at the
University of California’s Lick
Observatory still have not been
able to bounce laser beams off
a specially constructed reflec
tor taken to the moon by the
Apollo 11 crewmen.
trying unsuccessfully
for 35 minutes Monday night,
Dr. R. P. Kraft and his fellow
astronomers said they would
trv again when the moon is in
range tonight.
Dr. Kraft expressed ontimi=m
that they would locate the
reflector some time this week
although the blastoff of the
Eagle rocket Monday could
have knocked over the reflector
or covered it with dust.
The main problem, however,
is that the moon landing site of
Neil Armstrong and Edwin
Aldrin still has not been
pinpointed.
When the experiment is in
operation, the scientists say it
will have many benefits,
including providing a measure
ment of the direction in which
the earth continents are drift
ing.
