Abstract
DISCUSSIONS of the results of the Vela 4 scattered Lyman–α experiment1 by Bowers2 and Blum arid Fahr3 contain errors and misinterpretation which we believe should be pointed out promptly. The use by both authors of “Vela 7” to refer to the Vela Launch 4 spacecraft also leads to confusion because the experimental data have been published as Vela 4 data.
