the planet recedes: it's disc becomes
more rounded, but at the same time
much smaller. Now herein lies the OBJ

fully illuminated, except under the
worst conditions, for then it is on the

Another circumstance which inter-

is that the planet is surrounded by an
immense atmosphere, about twice as
dense as, and far more elevated than,
ours, so that even if we were able to
see the planet when in opposition to

Thus, in the first place, there is this

mission.
The map will include the newly-annexed
districts and will include the new names OF
300 streets recently changed by ordinance.
