Proton In Orbit
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter—Copyright) MOSCOW, Nov. 3. Russia’s second 12-ton unmanned space station orbited the earth today on a mission that will help scientists plan manned flights to the moon. The satellite, Proton-11, is equipped with delicate scientific instruments to measure cosmic rays and cosmic particles. Scientists must know the effects of cosmic rays on cosmonauts before they can draw up final plans for manned flights to the moon and further into deep space.
