Space research about the ionosphere from the ground by the National Bureau of Standards.

Film entitled 'Scatter Radar', from The National Bureau of Standards, United States Department of Commerce. Depicts space research from the ground. The globe rotating. A satellite antenna moves into position. Radio instruments. Red optical instruments used to study the sun. Clouds in the upper atmosphere. Animation: Ionosphere reflects radio waves to the planet. A smoke of cloud rises during the launching of a rocket. An artists' conception of the Van Allen Radiation Belt above the Earth's ionosphere discovered by Explorer I and Pioneer III. A satellite orbits the globe. Men watch as a rocket is erected and fired. A scientist at the National Bureau of Standards works on a formula. A man at the controls of a scatter radar fro space research. Animation: Ionized and neutral particles as well as free electrons that permit long distance communication. free electrons reflect radio energy. Radio waves penetrate the ionosphere. A scientist at the Ionosonde model C4 to measure electron density variations. Electron density model on the monitor. Two Oxygen atoms. An electron detaches and becomes a free electron. Radio waves pass by, the electron and waves oscillate and scatter energy. Animation: Need to excite electrons sufficiently so that their energy radiated can be detected from the ground. The process requires a powerful transmitter, large antenna, and a sensitive receiver.

Scatter Radar experimentation with Dr. Kenneth Bowles and his team, and their efforts in Lima Peru

Space research from the ground with a Scatter Radar. National Bureau of Standards laboratories in Boulder, Colorado. The Central Radio Propogation Laboratory. Cars parked outside. Hills in the background. Dr. Kenneth Bowles and a colleague work on a formula. Animation: Incoherent scatter of radio waves by electrons in the ionosphere. Transmission of powerful pulsed radio signal in a narrow beam. The beam penetrates the ionosphere and excites the free electrons. The scatter a weak signal which is detected by a sensitive antenna, and the signal comes back to Earth. Remaining portions of a sensitive antenna at the pioneering field site in Havana, Illinois. Dr. Ken Bowles and other scientists decide on a site. Animation: The magnetic equator and lines of the magnetic field. Pulsed radar signals and lines of force on the monitor. Animation: Chemical composition of the Earth's atmospheric gases. The scientists decide on Lima in Peru, due to its proximity to the magnetic equator and U.S. Lima, Peru: Buildings, guards, churches, plazas and boulevards in Lima including the Government Palace in Lima with guards in front, the Catedral de Lima (Catheral of Lima) and the Plaza Mayor de Lima . Construction work in Lima. Cars on a market street. People on the sidewalk. Shipping and port facilities in Callao, Peru. Workers unload goods. People board a Braniff International aircraft.
