Scientific paper

During the Soviet Vega Mission to Venus and Comet Halley, two instrumented balloons will be placed into the Venusian atmosphere in June 1985. These Soviet/French balloons will be used to study the structure and dynamics of the Venusian atmosphere by means of in situ measurements and earth-based VLBI determination of balloon position and velocity. The DSN 64-meter subnet will be part of an international network of antennas organized by the French to support this mission. The DSN is installing new L-band receiving systems for this task. All scientific data from the balloons will be analyzed by a joint Soviet/French/U.S. science team.
