name OF the illustrious astronomer,
HALEY. This splendid object accom-
plishes a complete circuit around the
sun every seventy-f1ve years. 1t will
again display it's splendors for terres.
trial admiration about the year 1910.
Our knowledge of comets has been
greatly extended in the last few years
by the application of Photographic
methods to the investigation of the
heavens. Indeed, we are evidently now
entering upon new phase in the his.
tory OF the study of these mysterious
objects. The advantages of photog.
raphy for such inquiries are obvious.
In the first place the plates present to
us pictures Of absolute accuracy. This
! is matter of special importance in
this research, because the appearance
of comets changes so necessarily that
unless the portrait Of the comet OBJ.
tanned on any particular occasion be
absolutely faithful it is impossible to
correct it on any subsequent occasion.
Not only from week to week does the
comet alter its appearance, but 1t
changes even from day to day. 1t Is
therefore OF the utmost Importance to
obtain views of the body which shall
be of unquestioned accuracy SO far as
the aspect Of the body is concerned at
that particular moment. There is also
another reason why Photographic pic
lures of comets are particularly in.
structive. 1t Is popularity OF the
sensitive plate that it is able to per.
ceive and record luminous expression
quite too faint to produce any impress
sion on the eye. When we examine
the photograph OF comet we thus
often find on it many details which
were quite unseen by the observer, no
matter how acute his vision may have
been and 10 matter how powerful may
be the telescope which he has been EN-.
ploying. 1t Is. indeed, sometimes
found that the tail of the comet as 1t Is
depicted Gu the plates is three times
as extensive as the tail of the same
! body as it is displayed through tele.
r scope.
