The photo above was taken by Rivet Ball's Team-2 on 4 October 1968 with the Ballistic Streak Camera (BSC) which is controlled by the Signal Monitor. This image along with others from several tracking cameras controlled by the Manual Tracker provided the first conclusive evidence of a Soviet capability to launch Multiple Re-entry Vehicles (MRVs). The flight path of three separate Re-entry Vehicles (RVs) can be seen in the center portion of the photo as three fine lines. The broader streaks are booster and tankage debris. |
