Back in "mid-1963," the USAF attached a Fresnel reflector to one of its Discoverer/Corona satellites as a solar energy concentration experiment. They called it EROS: Experimental Reflector Orbiting Shot, or something close to that. Only problem is that nobody ever seems to have identified the exact satellite that carried the EROS package. At least, I have not yet been able to find it online. I recall the puzzle back in 1963, and it's still a puzzle for me now. Does anyone happen to have that information available, or can point me to a website where I can download it? Although I've found a few websites about the EROS experiment, they don't give the launch date. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Frequently Asked Questions, SeeSat-L archive: http://www.satobs.org/seesat/seesatindex.html
