An interplanetary shock wave excited by the solar flare of August 18, 1979 was observed on the basis of interplanetary-scintillation measurements of a large number of radio sources. The wave was found to extend over heliocentric distances of 0.4-1.2 AU. The wave propagation velocity at various distances from the sun was calculated, and the velocity was found to amount to 600 km/s at 1 AU. It is shown that the decrease in the wave velocity with distance from the sun is approximately inversely proportional to the heliocentric distance.
