and together they cover field in the sky

2400 full moons. By its use on the meteors
the astronomers of Yale expect to develop
some new facts relating TO their height.
They will place single telescopes at dis
tanceS of two miles from the seXtuule
instrument and by means of electrical
connections will photograph Simultane-
ously. The plates will then be compared
and calculations will be made with view
to establishing the height of meteors.

are so arranged as 10 have the field of one

gra phic telescopes will cover field of 600
square degrees in the sky, and as they are
all carried on one equatorial mounting the
care exercised in operating them is no
more than if single telescope was being
used. This plan of DR.. Elkin's has been
