Edwards, Frank. Are our satellites bunting the saucers? Fate, v. 16, May 1963:
29-35.
Within the 24-month period following 1947-1948 appearance c1 UFOs in the re-
gion ol the South Pole, Argentina, Chile, Australia, France~ Great Britain,
the Ul!ited states, SWeden, and the Soviet Union sent expeditions to the A'ltarc-
tic. Tangible developments were (1) motion and still pictures of disc-shaped
objects that circled ships under Chilean commander Orrego; and (2) realiution
that objects presumably entered earth's atmosphere at polar regions for area-
son. On March 2, 1958, telemetry from Explorer satellites confirmed existence
mzone of intense radiation - Van Allen belt - encircling earth about 600 miles
out from equator. There 1s no such belt above either of the polar regions.
