Tho AsiaI Rotation of Venus.

For over two centuries it was gener-
ally accepted that, like the earth, the
planet Venus rotated on Its axis In a
little less than twenty-four hours, but
since Schlaparelll after long and care
full observation of the planet suggest
ed that the actual rotation period was
between six and nine months astron-
omers have devoted much attention to
this matter. In the Observatory Mr..
Dennlng sums up the available evi-
dence on the point and can only con-
clude that this particular problem still
defies solution. Life on Venus would
be very different from life on the earth
should the planets avial rotation be,
as Schiaparelll asserted, Identical with
the period Of Its revolution round the
sun, as In that case the same hemi-
sphere would always be turned to the
sun and enjoy perpetual day, while the
opposite hemisphere would be doomed
to eternal night.
