INTRODUCTION

World Data Centers conduct international exchange of geophysical observations in accordance with the principles set forth by the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU'). They were established in 1957 by the International IGY Committee (CSAGQ as part of the fundamental international planning for the International Geophysical Year program to collect data from the numerous and wide-spread IGY observational programs and to make such data readily accessible to interested scientists and scholars for an in- definite period of time. WDC-A was established in the U.S.A.; WDC-B in the U.S.S.R.; and WDC-C in Western Europe, Australia and Japan. This new system for exchanging geophysical data was found to be very effective, and the operations of the World Data Centers were extended by ICSU on a continuing basis to other international programs; the WDC's were under the supervision of the Comiti International de Geophysicua (CIG) for the period 1960 to 1967 and are now supervised by the ICSU Panel on World Data Centers.

The plans for continued international exchange of data through the World Data Cen- ters in the post-IGY period are set forth in the "Guide to International Data Exchange through the World Data Centers for the period 1960-onwards" which was adopted by CIG in August 1963. These plans are broadly similar to those adopted under ICSU auspices for the IGY.

The World Data Centers collect data and publications for the following disciplines: Airglow, Aurora; Cosmic Rays; Geomagnetism; Glaciology; GraAmetry; Ionosphere; Longitude and Latitude; Meteorology; Oceanography; Rockets and Satellites; Seismology; Solar Activity; Tsunami; UMP (Upper Mantle Project) disciplines (recent movements of the earth's crust, paleomagnetism, volcanology, geochemistry, properties of rocks under high pressure and temperatures, geothermics, deep drilling). In planning for the various scientific programs, decisions on data exchange were made by the scientific community through the international scientific unions and committees. In each discipline the special- ists themselves determined the nature and form of data exchange, based on their needs as research workers. Thus the type and amount of data in the WDC's differ from discip- line to discipline.

The objects of establishing several World Data Centers for collecting observational data were: (1) to insure against loss of data by the catastrophic destruction of a single center, (2) to meet the geographical convenience of, and provide easy communication for, workers in different parts of the world. Each WDC is responsible for: (i) endezvoring E to collect a complete set of data in the field or discipline for which it is responsible, (2) safekeeping of the incoming data, (3) correct copying and reproduction of data, maintain- ing adequate standards of clarity and durability, (4) supplying copies to other WDC's of daft not received directly, (5) preparation of catalog-io s of all data in its charge, (6) mak- ing data in the WDC's available to the scientific community.

World Data Center A

World Data Center A, for which the National Academy of Sciences through the Geo- physics Research Board (GRB) and its Committee on Data Interchange and Data Centers has overall responsibility, consists of the WDC-A Coordination Office and eight

lit subeenters at scientific institutions in various parts of the United States. The GRA periodically reviews the activities of WDC-A and hers conducted several studies on the effectiveness of the WDC system. As a result of these reviews and studies some of the subcentera of WDC-A have been relocated so that they could more effectively serve the scientific community. Several of the discipline centers of WDC-A dealing with the up- per atmosphere were consolidated in the WDC-A for Upper Atmosphere Geophysics during the period 1 July 1966 to 1 July 1968. The WDC-A for Rockets and Satellites was moved from the National Academy of Sciences to a location adjacent to the National Space Science Data Center at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center on 1 January 1969. Be- cause of its convenient location contiguous to the National Space Science Data Center, this WDC-A subeenter can effectively cooperate with this institution in obtaining reduced and analyzed data to satisfy requests from the scientific community for data requi.,ed for research projects. The addresses of the WDC-A are given inside the front onver.

Scientific organizations and individual scientists may order documents from the WDC-A for Rockets and Satellites directly or through their national organization re- sponsible for communication with the cent( Scientists may borrow materials from = the subeenter whenever duplicate copies are available. Otherwise, duplicate copler are made for the requester at a cost not to exceed the cost of copying and transmittal. The subeenter also provides facilities for scientists who wish to participate in on-site study of data. Advance notice of such a visit enables the staff to provide better services to the user. F The data received by WDC-A have been made available to the scientific community in various ways: (1) reports containing data and results of experiments have been com- piled, published and widely distributed; (2) synoptic type data on cards, microfilm or tables are available for use at the subcenters and for loan to scientiL!a; (3) copies of data and reports are provided upor request. e and Satellite Data

International agreements cone3raing international exchange of rocket and satellite data through the World Data Ceriers were adopted by the Committee on Space Research (COSPAR) in May 1962 (published in COSPAR Information Bulletin No. 9, mart I, July 1962). The "COSPAR Guide to Rocket and Satellite Information and Data Exchange" was incorporated in full by CIG into the overall "Guide to *nternational Data Exchange through the World Data Centers for the period 1960-onwards" (published in November 1963). These agreements were modified to include recommendations for improving the ex- change of information and data, and a revised COSPAR" Guide to Rocket and Satellite In- formation and Data Exchange" was adopted by COSPAR in July 1967 (published in CO- SPAR Transactions No. 4, Part I, December 1967).

ROCKETS AND SATELLITES

A. SOUNDING ROCKETS

The following summaries of sounding rocket launchings have been compiled from reports of sounding rocket launchings, National Reports to COSPAR, and other reports received by World Data Center A for Rockets and Satellites. Shown beloyi is a sample Report of Sounding Rocket Launching from the United States which illustrates the type of Information available in the reports submitted to the World Data Centers.

NASA REPORT OF SOUNDING ROCKET LAUNCHING

Vehicle No.: 15.470T Rocket Type: Boosted Areas Launching Site: Wallops Island, II Virginia Runge No.: 02-4098 Lat.: 370 50' 6"N Long.: 75°29111"W ------NASA Project Scientist: Mr. H, Pedolsky GSFC - Code 721.4 Greenbelt, Maryland Experimenter and Location: Mr. H, Pedolsky GSFC - Code 721.4 Greenbelt, Maryland ------OBJECTIVES AND INSTRUMENTATION: The objectives of 'his launch were to study the performance characteristics of the Boosted Areas II in the configuration provided by the manufacturer and to insure that the vehicle was satisfactory for use in with Dr. J. Kane's scientific payload.

------I------REMARKS:

Launching Date: 27 January 1969 Time: 1953 Z Peak Altitude: 102 km.* ( 63.5-05t. mi.) Rocket Performance: The rocket reached a peak altitude of 22 kilometers below that pre- dicted. Spin rate appeared to be nominal (12 rps), and draF separation of the stages ap- peared normal. Instrumentation Performance: Instrumentation was good throughout the flight except for the tone ranging which appeared to be too weak for Resolute Bay. ------PRELIMINARY EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS: The vehicle underperformed according to the predicted trajectory. It appeared that a portion of this performance can be attributed to wind weighting. However, the velocity after first stage burnout was only 900 ft/sec com- pared with the predicted 1500 ft/sec. The four sabots ejected from the tube properly and wars recovered in good condition. COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: Additional information derived from the data re- ceived will be required to determine if the vehicle, as it performed, will be satisfactory for the Resolute Bay series. *Based on plotboard data. Not to be considered final, Prepared: 9 April 69 HP/jr • i
