| Summary: | The S-210JA-7 sounding rocket was launched from Syowa Station, Antarctica to measure the magnetic field of the electrojet current at 0023 local time on December 14, 1972. Preliminary results show that there were remarkable differences between the upward and the downward profiles of the magnetic field. These profiles indicate that the current system of the electrojet is quite narrow and localized. |
