COMET TO LOOK LIKE
BALLOON NEAR VENUS
Scientists Say 1t Is Million Times Larger Than the
Earth, and, Instead of Affecting This Planets
Orbit Will Be Affected by Us.

Chicago, Feb. PROF. Edwin 3 Frost,
director Of the Yerkes Observatory at
Williams Bay, Wis. said to-day.
"Halleys comet on which all eyes in
the astronomical world are now cen
tered, is about 100000 times IS big as the
earth Yet. although the earth's gravity
may change the orbit Of the comet. The
earths path through the sky Will be un-
affected by the approaching proximity Of
the two bodies"
This supplements information contained
in a circular respecting observation Of
HaIleys comet 1910, which has just
been issued by the Astronomical and As
trophysical Society OF America The cir
cular says that an expedition to observe
and photograph Halleys comet from the
Hawaiian Islands is 10 be- sent out 10y
the society and sets forth that.
In view of possible large pertUrb2tions
arising from the close approach or the
comet 10 Venus on May ]. and 20 the
earth on May Is, meridian observations
are especially desired during the period
in which the comet is sufficiently bright
for that purpose"
What are these possible large pertUr-
bations?' Prof Frost was asked

1T won't affect the orbit of Venus Or
