Abstract
A balloon-borne spark chamber was flown over western Queensland on 26 November 1966 in an attempt to detect cosmic photons of energy greater than 100 MeV emanating from several celestial objects of interest. No sources were found, and upper limits in agreement with those set by other observers were obtained.Keywords
