The survey nature of rocket study of cosmic hydromagnetics suggests that space-probe data be considered chronologically. In short, the experiments consist primarily of verification or denial of hitherto postulated models, substantiation of surface observations, and findings in some cases implying so great a deviation from current ideas that repetition of the experiment is suggested.
