Lunar ~
Photography

A new atlas of the moon Is being
prepared for publication by Professor
w. II. Pickering, of the Harvard OBJ
servatory, from material obtained dur
ing the past season by means of the
l36-foot telescope at the observatory's
temporary astronomical station in
Jamaica. Although observations were
interrupted by the approach Of the
rainy season in May the undertaking
is sufficiently advanced to be complet-
ed by midsummer and Professor
Pickering has already brought to Cam
bridge a full set of the photographs
necessary for the proposed publica-
ton. The apparatus is the long "hor-
izontal telescope" already described
in the Herald, built ON the principle of
rejecting the rays from the object hor-
izontally through fixed lens. The
method permits OF an extremely long
focus and secures a much larger pic
ture than is possible where the tube
OF the telescope is pointed at the OBJ
ject. The arrangement is also an ex
tremely economical one, temporary
sheds serving all the purposes of the
old-time tube, though the instrumental
parts are very expensive. 1t is also
the only known method % making
large instrumental powers readily
portable. The mirrors, lenses and ma
chinery of the telescope were all taken
from Cambridge early in October, but
nearly three months were spent in the
work Of getting ready, so that 1t was
not until the morning of the first day
of the new century, few minutes after
midnight, that the first observations
were made, and several days later be-
fore satisfactory photographs were OBJ
tanned. A 12-inch lens Is used with a
stop reducing it to a six-inches d.
ameter, for the Photographic work, and
exposures of eight minutes are made
for the quick plates and of minute
and half for the slow plates, the
apparent inconsistency in the times of
exposure being due to the fact that the
more sensitive plates are used just
after the lunar sunrise or before the
