TitleMemorandum from Thomas Gold for the record
Date22 October 1979
DescriptionPhone conversation with T Donahue, University of Michigan. He considers that a sudden addition of methane inthe ionosphere would decrease ionization, provided the amounts were comparable with nitrogen and oxygen there.

Will suggest a mode of operation for a mass spectrograph-equipped rocket to be in readiness to sample from 120 km upwards to perhaps 250 km.
