Scientific paper

Scorpius X-1 was observed on 1976 May 11 with the NRL balloon-borne hard X-ray observatory. X-ray emission was detected up to 70 keV and is well fitted with a single thermal spectrum having a characteristic temperature of 5.0 ± 0.2 keV. Upper limits on the X-ray flux between 70 and 250 keV fall well below the fluxes of hard components reported by several other observers.
