Abstract
The minor planet Icarus was observed with the 3.8-cm Haystack radar from 12 to 15 June 1968. Weak but significant echoes were detected indicating a radar cross section of about 0.1 km2, a radius of about 1 km, and an effective reflectivity of about 0.05. These results have an uncertainty of about a factor of 2.
