SAYS TRIP TO THE
MOON IS POSSIBLE
French Engineer Tells How Il
Can Be Done. !

Paris.-A stir was caused by a paper
read before the members Of the French
Physical society by Robert Esnault
Pelterle, the brilliant young engineer.
on how to get from the earth to the
moon In forty eight hours.
M. Pelterie insists that his idea is
practicable, based on scientific calcula-
tons and not reminiscent Of Jules
Verne's romance.
The vehicle for the first travellers to
the moon will, he says. be closed ves-
sci Of extreme lightness. provided with
a motor Of great power. combination
which the astonishing advances Of 10
comotion during the past hundred years
brings well into sight.
Since there Is no atmosphere In the
space between our planet and the moon
no system Of propellers would be OF
any use. and the only possible means
Of driving the vehicle forward would
be an adaptation Of the rocket princl-
pie, which, he says. works as well In
vacuum as iD air.
The motor then wonld work kind
Of continuous rocket. and NJ. Pelterie
has made calculations Of just how much
power the engine must have to carry
the vehicle along the 100000 odd miles
between the earth and Its satellite.
For vehicle weighing one ton the
motor would have to be Of 414.OO0
horsepower. For added weight the
horsepower must be proportionately in
creased. When this combination was
realized the journey would be divided
into three parts. The first would be to
drive the vehicle with increasing speed
until the sphere Of the earth's attrac-
ton was passed. During the second
the vehicle would continue its journey
by inertia until It reached the point
where the moons attraction began.
while the third would be the simple
matter Of dropping on to the latter's
surface. no motive force being neces-
sary.
The Hrst Of these phases, according
to the lecturer. would last "a minutes
and 8 seconds: the second phase. 4S
hours and 80 minutes: the third. 3 min
utes and 46 seconds. giving total Of
40 hours II minutes 55 seconds. /
During the first 1000 niles, he says.
the passengers would nave the SEN
sation Of weighing one-tenth more than
usual, but afterward they would cease
to weigh at all and have the sensation
Of falling indefinitely into space.
To remedy the bad physical effects
which might result from these phe-
nomena special appliances. says NJ
