In recent years the way in which the moon reflects radio waves has been the subject of much study. Observations by Yaplee [1] at 2860 Mc/s, Trexler [2] at 198 Mc/s, Evans [3] at 120 Mc/s, and others show that radio waves are reflected principally by a small region at the center of the moon's visible disk which has a radius of the order of one-third of the lunar radius.
