This microfiche of the publication "Trajectories of Explorers 33, 35, 41, 43, and 47, May 1969 - December 1972," written by D. H. Fairfield, K. W. Behannon, R. P. Lepping, and N. F. Ness (NASA-GSFC X-692-73-291, October, 1973), contains the ecliptic plane projections of the first 158 orbits of Explorer 43. The plots are not useful for detailed studies, but they are useful in indicating the orbital phase of the spacecraft on a given day and in showing where apogee is in local time. In addition, one plot is given to show the solar ecliptic X-Z projections of two orbits separated by one year.
