NASA announced plans for three balloon flights to study ray radiation produced by Supernova 1987a. The Goddard Space Flight Center's Wallops Flight Facility at Wallops Island, Virginia, which manages NASA's balloon pro-gram, would provide launch services and helium. The first launch, from Alice Springs, Australia, was to take place no earlier than May 7, 1987, and the third balloon was to be launched within a month's time. (NASA Release 87-60)
