Improvement Necessary { In considering the possibility of! mapping the moon's surface with | ‘radar, the war department conceded | that some authorities “believed. that’ considerable improvement in radar | technique would be necessary before this could be done.” | The experiments at the Evans laboratory were directed by Lt. Col. ! John H. DeWitt Jr. aided by a| staff of engineers, mathematicians, and physicists. An antenna twice | normal size was mounted on a 100- | foot tower and aimed at the moon | by means of a special peep-sight. From this antenna was transmit- | ted a high frequency pulse of en-| ergy so enormous that it was nec- | essary to use water-cooled vacuum! tubes. As each pulse left the transmitter, a tall “pip” appeared on the radar screen, an oscilloscope specially designed to record the mooa echoes visually. f As each pulse returned from the moon a new and smaller pip appeared. ‘ i Evidence Doubted . The men who contacted the moon | on Jan. 10 doubted the evidence at first. - That was understandable because, according to the war department, | “scientists had never before been certain they could” project radio! waves beyond the earth's atmosphere.” Nor had they “ever succeeded in generating sufficient energy ‘in the very high frequency band of radio to attain this range of nearly half a million miles.” Engineers reproduced the evi-| dence of the “pips” several times to make certain they had, indeed, accomplished what they set out! to—do-—But-the-director remained
