THE eIFFeL TOWER As 4 sun.

that the mass of air lying in n given

the tower is equal ID the atmospheric
mass above NJ Jansen argues from
this that the number of molecults of
air encountered by beam of light sent

Is about the sama rs that met by sun
light on its way to The earth when the
sun is near the zenith. He then shows
that il the analogy holds true. the be-
lief that tho sun contains oxygen is um-
founded, and that if its spectrum con
lains the characteristic oxygen rays
this is due 10 the oxygen Of our atmos-
phere. One Of The fundamental
theorrms of spectrum analysis is that
the width of the characteristic bands of
