Introduction

Greg Roberts has made available a report done by Rockwell in 1970 on the Western Satellite Research Network (WSRN). He briefly explains the report on SeeSat-L .

Greg was active in the WSRN at the time in South Africa at Durban, Capetown and Johannesburg. He observed the early Apollo missions on trans-lunar trajectory using a 20 inch reflector and a 27.25 inch refractor at a range of about 200,000 miles or so. My thanks to Greg for spending the time, money and effort to provide the files.
