Excellent spectrograms in the region from 1780 to 1950 ängströms were obtained from the flight of a high resolution spectrograph in an Aerobee 150 rocket at White Sands Missile Range on June 14, 1971. The instrument’s dispersing system, consisting of a 79 line mm-1 echelle crossed with a 1200 line mm-1 grating, was incorporated in a Czerny-Turner arrangement using spherical mirrors of one meter focal length. Spectral resolution was limited to 13 mÅ by a slit width of 25 μ. The plate factor was 0.5 Å mm-1. Spectra were recorded on Kodak type 101-01 film.
