===USS ''Albemarle''=== [[USS Albemarle (AV-5)|USS ''Albemarle'']], fresh out of an [[wikt:overhaul|overhaul]], was not listed on the TF-88 order. It set out to the [[Atlantic Ocean]], supposedly as a shakedown cruise. It, too, had a COZI radar and other instrumentation for detecting man-made [[ionization]]. This instrumentation included [[International Geophysical Year]] (IGY) [[radiometer]]s, [[Receiver (radio)|receiver]]s, [[radar]], and optical equipment. After the IGY equipment was added, it sailed to the ocean around the area of the Azores to record data at the [[Earth's magnetic field|geomagnetic]] [[Conjugate points|conjugate point]] of the South Atlantic test site, as the rest of task force 88 headed to the South Atlantic to perform the tests.<ref name=":0" />
