The launch balloon, 75 feet in diameter when fully inflated, is on top, and the main balloon, 230 feet in diameter, in the middle. The gondola contains the telescope and instruments. It is 600 feet from the top of the launch balloon to the bottom of the gondola.

By midnight, scientists had trained the $2.5 million telescope on Mars after bringing it into focus, using the moon and the star Betelgeuse. Officials expected to bring the 6-ton rig down today near Columbus, 1 but last-minute changes in the weather could alter the retrieving point many miles. The balloons floated nearly 80,000 feet high -out of 98 per cent of the air and water blanket that surrounds the earth. The telescope was to make an infrared study of Mars. The data it gathered was to be relayed to Earth by radio.

This inlormation will provide clues to the amount of water vapor, carbon dioxide. and other gases in the Martian atmosphere. A news conference will be held either Sunday or Monday to release available information officials said. Astronomers traveled in a small truck along the proected flight path to point and focus the telescope. Control of the balloons was accomplished by signals from a- small aircraft.
