...GEODSS takes in rapid succession several separate electronic snapshots of each sector of the sky. Because the telescopes are geared to sweep the heavens at a rate that will exactly counter the rotation of the earth, the distant stars appear as sharp pinpoints of light in precisely the same positions in each of the images; if the telescope were fixed, the earth's rotation would cause apparent movement of these stars.

But with the advent of the Marshall Plan and the Truman Doctrine the party had either to abdicate its claim as a revolutionary party, or leave the government. Unwilling to gamble, the party went into a 20-year exile. Now, faced...
