Sept. Design objectives of small solid-propellant satellite launcher comprised high reliability, ease of development, high performance, and low cost per pound of satellite weight; development of solid propellant, four-stage rocket, with inertial and celestial guidance; basic engine has case-bonded grain, burning takes place on surface of six-pointed-star port; description of engine structure, guidance system, and propellant characteristics. Nov. Control features, range safety, reliability and orbits are described. (n 5 Sept 1965 p 146-154)
