CURRENT PLANETARY AND SOLAR
PHENOMENA.
Mars will be in conjunction with the
moon on the 7th, Mercury on the 9th,
Venus on the 10th, Saturn on the Goth,
and Jupiter on the Goth Jupiter rises
late in the evening. Saturn crosses
the meridian about o'clock on the
18th.
A total eclipse of the sun will occur
on the 9th. Total eclipses are par
ticularly valuable to astronomers in
affording means of observing phenom-
ena which help to explain the physical
condition of the sun and which can
he he cd har . ia
eclipse, however, is of little value, as
the narrow strip along which it will
be total lies almost wholly in the
Pacific Ocean, steering clear of islands
and touching mainland only at its
eastern end in Chill, where the phe-
nomenon will have to be observed at
the unfavorable time of approaching
sunset. Next year stronomers will re.
joice at the prospect Of an ecliT Sc
more easily observed.
AS the sun is the source of almost
the entire supply of our planets heat
and hence the support of its plant and
animal life, any knowledge which
may be gained of variations in this
source are extremely interesting. The
Smithsonian Astrophysical Observa.
tory, under the direction of Prof S.
p. Langley, has for some years been
working at this problem The atmos
phere and clouds play so important a
part in transmitting or absor bing the
suns heat that it is an extremely diff.
ficult thing to determine from obser.
vations made under this constantly
changing screen whether the sun
itself sends out in one year or season
more heat than another. Prof. Lang.
ley has, however, pointed out an ap.
parent agreement between a change
of solar radiation as indicated by his
observations on the sun and an aver.
age decrease of temperature shown
by weather records taken from many
stations. He does not regard this al
