Abstract
ON June 26, July 7 and 31, we succeeded in sending up registering balloons into the stratosphere, to heights of 21, 20 and 31 km. respectively, with an automatic quartz spectrograph. The plate registering the spectra was moved every few minutes ; simultaneously, two barographs and a thermograph recorded pressure and temperature on the photographic plate. In order to avoid the permanent position of the spectrograph direct towards the sun, a plate of magnesium oxide (MgO) was fixed about 10.5 metres below the spectrograph and the latter was directed downwards to the MgO plate.
