Proceedings of the Plasma Space Science Symposium Held at the Catholic University of America Washington, D.C., June 11–14, 1963

Space, whether interplanetary or interstellar, is filled with plasma or ionized gas. The success of space exploration must count heavily on the study and understanding ofthe plasma. With this view, the Symposium ofPlasma Space Science was held at The Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C...
