Orange Measuresecrs
After che Teak shot it was deterained that Sandia would participate in the
Crange shot to a greater extent than was originally planned.
F3 atremation
measurements nor instrusent carriers were originally scheduled for Orange.
Ia-
sUrweentation used om the test was as follows:
(1) Four rad-chem samplers.
(2) Three inserawent carriers (see Fig. 1.2 for location).
(3) Eight Deacom-drrow LI BF atteqmustiog rockets.
(%) MIDOT cracking of the three instroment carriers, two of the RF attemation rockets, and the Redstone.

(7) Warbead preparation and monitoring.

Orange Conclusions
D
(1) Four samplers were recovered
The fact that che burst point was 16,000 feet higher than was planned is possi
the reason that Sandia samplers aissed the debris.
(2) Telemetered data from the three instrument carriers appear to be satis-
factory.
The station 40,000 feet oorth of the burst (OR-115R) was not recovered.
(3) Only seven BF ettem:ation rockets were fired.
The three 225-nc systess
recorded good data.
(%) MIDOT tracking was good.
(5) The b-xmc diagnostic aeasurement gave transit cine act early alpha.
(6) Phoco coverage was lost because of cloud cover.
(7) The warhead operated as expected.
