SUN SPOTS PHOTOGRAPHED.
Said to Be the Largest Discovered in
Past Decade

George A. Peters of the naval observa-
tory photographed group of sun spots
said to be the largest observed in the last
decade. at the observatory recently. The
group is said to be large enough to be seen
by the naked eye. protected by either
smoked or colored glass. Mr. Peters has
estimated roughly that the disturbed area
on the surface of the sun is about 10000
miles long and 5000 miles in width. with
total area of about 55O,OCoOOO square
miles.
Two photographs of the spots have
been made by Mr.. Peters, the first October
and the second October T. On account
OF the cloudy weather it has been impossi-
BILE to take others Although sun spots
have been observed for many years, little
or nothing is known of their real nature.
they are believed by most scientists to
be due to storms and eruptions on the
suns surface, but their effect upon the
earth is merely a matter OF conjecture.
