✦ Synopsis

Indications about the spectral distribution of the solar radiation below 20 Zk are obtained by comparing the atmospheric extinction of the solar radiation measured by three ion chambers in the satellites SOLRAD 7 and 8.

The data refer to July 5, 6 and 8, 1965 and July 23, 1966 when the satellites passed from light to darkness into or out of the earth's shadow.

The spectral intensity distribution is shown for the four days, and a comparison is made between active and quiet days.
