The second and last of two lithium releases from the Federal Republic of Germany's IRM was completed, part of the world's first active probe reaching beyond the Earth's magnetosphere. Data from the first release on September 11 was being analyzed to determine if the U.S. satellite inside the Earth's magnetosphere had detected the lithium released outside. NASA launched on August 16 the AMPTE satellites in a stack aboard a Delta rocket from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station. (NASA Release 84-140)
