A new, ten‐foot radiotelescope designed for observations at much shorter wavelengths than those previously in operation has been installed on the roof of Cory Hall on the University of California campus at Berkeley. Donated by the Office of Naval Research and constructed at the Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Portsmouth, Va., the new antenna will be operated (with ONR support) under the supervision of Samuel Silver, director of the University's Space Sciences Laboratory, and William J. Welch, assistant professor of electrical engineering.
