may be elected from It. Instead OF
| this eruption merely causing slight
frightening of the star, 1t is supposed
that the effect is very much greater,
and. in fact. is equivalent to partial
tearing apart or disruption of It.
1t is further supposed that the Sec
on star In It's journey around the first
tends to draw this elected material
after II. and thus arranges the material
in spiral form. So that each or the
many spiral nebulas Is the remains of
star which has been torn apart by
the near approach of another star.
Finally, 1t Is supposed that the eject
ed material will continue to revolve
around the central star in the direc-
ton in which 1t was originally drawn
by the disturbing star. and that ulti-
mately 1t will condense into one or
more planets. revolving about this sun
IN the same direction.
The theory of La Place. which has
been quite generally accepted for near
~ century, supposed that our solar
system was originally a nebula, which.
as II slowly contracted. left great rings
of material behind. These rings con-
densed into the planets and the great
bulk of the nebula condensed into the
sun. For many years 1t has been known
that this method of development is an
impossible one. because a ring of mat
ter left behind In this way could never
condense into planet. but whether the
new theory. after due investigation.
will be generally accepted cannot be
predicted as yet.
COMETS AND PLANETS.
There are no less than three comets
