Scientific paper

The approach used to map the northern hemisphere of Venus using side-looking radar is described. As the Venera satellite passes through its pericenter a radar survey is made of a strip of the planet's surface about 100 kilometers wide and 7,000 kilometers long. The image is constructed with a phototelegraphic device whereby the whole strip is cut into pieces of about 1,000 kilometers in length. Two such fragments of a strip received during the first survey by Venera-15 and Venera-16 are presented and examined.
