Three press men joined the summer party. Dr. AlbertoJ. FOPPIANO, an exchange scientist from Chile, accompanied the summer party from Fremantle of Australia to Port Louis, Mauritius.

The field party of six persons (three geologists, one geophysicist, one surveyor and one biologist) camped at Cape Ryugu 220 km east-northeast of Syowa Station from December 30,1977 to January 14,1978. The FUJI anchored at Syowa Station from January 17 to February 3,1978. Five other field surveys of geoscience and biology were successfully carried out in the snow-free areas along the coast of Liitzow-Holm Bay from January 24 to February 3, 1978. A return trip to the inland Mizuho Station was also accomplished. Two sounding rockets of S-210 were successfully launched on January 28 and February 6,1978.
