feet and more in length. The biggest
of these have a total lifting capacity
Of 20 tons.
Ii coronium could be employed in
stead of hydrogen, an airship of the
same lifting capacity would have a
total length of a trifle over 200 feet
and its maximum diameter would be
considerably less than twenty feet.
In the place of gas bags holding 700,-
600 cubic feet of hydrogen its con-
tainers would have within them but
$4,000 cubic feet of the lighter gas.
The smaller airship would obviously
be cheaper to construct, speedier
and more manageable. 1t would be
able to stay afolt longer and sail
further. The best of the Zeppelins
have remained aloft about thirty five
hours. and this is suggestive of what
the more mobile smaller and swifter
airship could do when sustained by
means of coronium.
There is another phase of aero
nautics in which cO-nium would be
of great value. MeterorOlOgists have
been reaching ever higher into the
atmospheric zones in their endeavor
to determine the conditions that pre-
vail there. Sounding balloons charged
with hydrogen have been used to take
temperatures at different heights up
to fifteen miles. Could coronium be
used instead Of hydrogen the ocean
nf ot of
deal further and possibly astonishing
information would be obtained.
One remarkable discovery has al
ready resulted from the use Of sound
ing balloons. Theoretically the tenn
perature Of the air falls one degree
Fahrenheit for approximately every
800 feet of ascent, and this rate of re-
duction was supposed to go on reg
uraly. 1t Is now established that
within the lower two miles of the
atmosphere this rule Is frequently re-
versed. Above this, however. there
is more regularity. Formerly it was
supposed that this went on unbrCken-
ly until the cold of distant space was
reached, something In the neighbor-
hood Of absolute zero.
When the sounding balloon records
were accumulated one of the first facts
apparent was that at height, gener-
ally of something like six miles, the
temperature actually ceased to fall
and even tended to rise. This con-
tinues to be the case as far as the
sounding balloons have gone afolt
This zone of comparatively mild tenn
perature is also apparently a region
of relative calm, but we do not yet
know how far heavenward this stra-
tum extends.
So far consideration has been given
only to the services that coronium
may fill for man because Of its light
ness, but who shall say that there
are not other ways in which it may
act helpfully? It is the unsupported
properties Of radium that have proved
of the utmost value since its discov.
cry. Perhaps coronium may hold pos
sibilities of an equally important
nature.
