Abstract :
Developed under the impetus of the submarine menace of World War II, the airborne magnetometer has found many peacetime uses. Navy airplanes equipped with magnetometers for exploration of Antarctica were used in the recent United States Navy expedition. An expedition now is studying the Aleutian Alaskan volcanos and the Aleutian submarine trench. From there it will proceed to Hawaii and Bikini.
