The second Advanced Technology Satellite (ATS-II) carries a radio-astronomy experiment designed to perform radio-noise measurements in the range 0·5 to 3·0 MHz from above the terrestrial ionosphere. The spacecraft was launched into an 11000-km apogee, 180-km perigee orbit on April 6, 1967, and since there was considerable solar activity in the ensuing months it is possible to present a preliminary description of the kind of solar observations this experiment will provide.
