The action left the spacecraft orbitirlg Venus and recording radar images but unable to transmit them.

A backup radio is continuing to transmit information on the Magellan's condition and a steady stream of data from which scientists expect to map gravitational variations reflecting the planet's interior structure. Officials of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, said Friday that they still did not understand the source of the transmitter's problems. Static has repeatedly overwhelmed the signal when the transmitter has reached certain operating temperatures. Jim Doyle, a laboratory spokesman, said the transmitter's behavior was erratic, sometimes performing clearly at one temperature only to erupt with noise at the same temperature another time. By Audrey Woods Associated Press WINDSOR, England Britain's royal family gathered at Windsor Castle on Saturday for the wedding of Lady Helen Windsor, but public attention was focused more on the guests than on the bride.

Lady Helen, the 28-year-old daughter of the Duke of Kent, is 21st in line for the throne. Being that far down in the succession, she has generally avoided the spotlight that follows Queen Elizabeth II and her close family. Lady Helen wore a plain white, silk dress with a gem-encrusted V-neck at the front and a V-shaped back cutaway, followed by a 6-foot train, to marry commoner Tim Taylor, an art dealer. But for a country fascinated by the marital troubles of Prince Charles, Prince Andrew and Princess Anne, the royal guests were far more interesting than the bride. Their actions at the wedding surely will prompt new speculation about whether reconciliations are coming or whether rifts are widening further.
