Dr. Waltema,h, of Hamburg, asks
for help in the discovery of a moon
which is otraying somewhere in the solar
system. 1t is very little moon, as
moons go, and for that reason it is hard
to find. If it were a big moon, like
fair Luna, of course, no assistance would
be needed This missing moon is only
400 miles in diameter, but it is large
enough to cause certain irregularities in
the motion Of our own moon. 1t is two
and two-tbird times as far away from
the earth as our moon, and this distance,
together with its smallness, makes it diff
icult to lay ones finger upon it or to
cover it with a telescope.
Although DR.. Waltemath is taxing
such deep interest in this little celes-
tial wanderers, it is not really his moon.
Il has been seen several times in the last
three hundred years, but the Hamburg
astronomer appears to be the first to de
termine its character, 1t crossed the
SUMS disc on February Srd of this year
and is due to repeat this trip on July
S0th. DR.. Waltemath does not say
what be wants with the little moon
Perhaps Germany wishes to annex it,
and will send Prince Henry. with feet
Of air ships, to accomplish that object.
