A TV image of the entire sun while an importance 2N solar flare was in progress was recorded in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation band 171-630 A and transmitted to ground from an Aerobee-150 rocket on 4 November 1969 using S-band telemetry. The camera tube was a Westinghouse Electric Corporation SEC vidicon, with its fiber optic faceplate coated with an XUV to visible conversion layer of p-quaterphenyl. The XUV passband was produced by three 1000-A thick aluminum filters in series together with the platinized reflecting surface of the off-axis paraboloid that imaged the sun. A number of images were recorded with integration times between 1/30 see and 2 sec. Reconstruction of pictures was enhanced by combining several to reduce the noise.
1969年11月4日，利用S波段遥测技术，从一枚“航空蜜蜂-150”火箭上，在171 - 630埃的极紫外（XUV）辐射波段记录了一次2N级重要太阳耀斑发生时的整个太阳的电视图像，并将其传输到地面。摄像管是西屋电气公司的SEC光导摄像管，其光纤面板涂有对四联苯的XUV到可见光转换层。XUV通带由三个串联的1000埃厚的铝滤光片以及对太阳成像的离轴抛物面的镀铂反射面产生。记录了许多积分时间在1/30秒到2秒之间的图像。通过组合几张图像来减少噪声，从而增强了图像重建效果。
