"One of the handicaps to understanding such storms is a total lack of data
from within the funnel. Perhaps the boldest approach to that problem has
been the attempts of Dr. Stirling Colgate of Los Alamos National Laboratory
in New Mexico to fire instrumented rockets through them.

Flying his own plane, he has approached close enough to fire several
rockets through. In no case did everything work ''all at once,'' he said
last week. His project has been supported by the National Science
Foundation and the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology, of which
he was formerly president."

Best,

Rasmus
