Scientific paper
Sounding rocket projects in astronomy, aeronomy, magnetosphere and materials science under microgravity are summarized. Balloon projects emphasize astronomy and aeronomy. A 1m EUV telescope was launched with an ARIES rocket. Due to a failure in the acquisition control system the scientific output was poor, but the payload was recovered almost undamaged and will be used for a reflight. About 50 rockets and 18 balloons were launched to study energetic processes in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere during geomagnetic disturbances as part of the Energy Budget Campaign. A balloon-borne gamma ray telescope observed the galactic center. Star formation regions were discovered by FIR spectrophotometry.
