LIFE ONA new WORLD
LARGEH THAN the EARTH
[Continued From Page II

tThis differs from our former estimate
of $4,000 pounds, or l-2 tons, be-
cause we now assume that the density
Of the planet is hut a quarter of that
nf the earth, instead of being equal
to it,,
But could a man of thai weight

comfortable would have to shrink to
a height of about four feet or be fat

about in that shape.
Some Possibilities.
We have spoken of only one of these
great bodies. that which accompanies
Algol. but. in fact many others are
Der of stars which have huge dark
companions that may be regarded as
giant planets. We become aware Of
their existence by the effects of their
attraction upon the stars. 1t is even
possible. in such cases, to calculate
he relative size and weight of these
invisible bodies. The n near Algol
is, as we have said. about $4,000
miles in diameter. while Algol itself
has a dia of about 1.125.ooo
miles. They revolve around their
common center of gravity in the ex-
ceedfngly brief period of sixty hours,
and they arc only 3.32O.0OO miles
apart. from enter to center.
But this is not all. There is at
least one Of these giant planetary
bodies which is actually larger or more
massive thar it's own sun-reversing
he ordinary rule with a vengeance.
1t is the great body which is con-
nected with the bright star Castor, in
the constellation of the Twins.
The arrival Of "A huge dark BODY or
stranger planet in our system. wheth-
er 1t resulted in a collision with the
sun or not. would inevitably upset the
present planetary system. The earth
and the other planets would be swirl
ed from their orbits; the existing or.
derby arrangement would be broken
up: il the intruder approached close
to the sun. the latter would burst out

hitherto peaceful worlds. driving wild
~ hither and thither. might destroy
