MONTGOMERY DEAN Ik? - 8 . , ' X ' 'AX DORS Rocket May Have Blown in Ocean Cape Canaveral, Fla. 1TD A rocket explosion that U.S. scientists had hoped would put an American-made satel lite into orbit around the moon may have gone off under the waters of the Atlan tic ocean Tuesday night. The rocket was the ' final phase of the ill-fated moon rocket fired from its Cape Ca naveral launching site Sunday morning. If all had gone as planned with the moonshot package, the payload portion would have reached the moon Tues day night between midnight and 1 a.m., e.d.t., and the braking charge, a 3,000-pound reverse thrust rocket, would have been used to slow the unit and throw it into orbit around the moon. , This retro-rocket was to have been triggered at the proper moment from Hilo, Hawaii. But the Air Force had rigged -the unit to fire auto matically if the signal from earth failed to reach it. The Air Force has released no information on the fate of the two stages that plunged into the Atlantic Sunday atfer the first-stage Thor Dallistic missile blew up at the end of 77 seconds' flight. But if the retro-rocket had not been re covered from the ocean floor, and if water or damage had not upset the automatic firing sequence, the rocket brake presumably, would . have ex ploded on schedule Tuesday night. .
