Early Parkes Observations of Planets and Cosmic Radio Sources
  We discuss early Parkes observations of the radio emission from the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn, and Uranus. The sensitive Parkes 11 cm system was used to detect a surprisingly high observed nighttime temperature on Mercury, the first, but unrecognized, hint that the Mercury actually rotates with respect to the Sun, as well as detecting the faint radio emission from Uranus. We also discuss the anomalous spectrum of PKS 1934-63, the first recognized GPS source.
