The belt will be used to bounce radio signals back to earth over great distances. The Air Force said the dipole belt is practically invulnerable to physical damage and is especially useful in long distance microwave communica tlons. Some scientists have opposed the experiment saying It would clutter space with trash and im pair observations of the stars and planets with telescoiies.

The Air force previoulsy tried a similar experiment using 73 pounds of Hie needles but was un successful when they apparently failed to spread into orbit. Fifty pounds were used in the new ex periment.
