The corona, an area of extremely low density and high temperature, can be most clearly observed naturally during a solar eclipse. Kohl's coronograph would pick up the ultraviolet light emitted by the corona and analyse it to reveal the density and velocity of the particles in the corona...
...computer, which has a 32-bit memory, is considerably more powerful than the two HRSTS computers it joins--both PDP 11/70 computers. The new computer has roughly double the amount of disk storage and can do calculations much faster than the old ones...
More memory and disk space will have to be added to it in the future, though, Lewis A. Law, associate director of the Science Center, said yesterday...
