EARLY RISERS TODAY
saw MERCURY CROSS SUN

Early risers this morning had rare
opportunity of witnessing one Of ma
natures phenomena, when at sunrise
the planet Mercury passed across the
face of the sun. The spectacle was not
visible to the naked eye.
The transit of the planet took just
hours and 10 minutes. Persons with
powerful field glasses might Have no
ticed that only a portion of the crossing
was visible here. According TO astron-
omers the best time 10 see the phenom-
enon was Just at sunrise, when the at
mospheric conditions dimmed the glare
OF the sun.
A black speck, which the astronomer
said was the planet, could be seen with
the aid of a small telescope or even nm
opera glass, provided that piece OF
smoked glass was placed between the
eye and lens. The planet Is only l-2OOth
OF the diameter of the sun, consequent
" the eye alone could not detect il.
Although the planet Mercury whizzes
through space at the rate Of 1875 miles
a minute, it appeared TO travel across
the SS6,O00-mile wide surface of the sun
at a snairs pace. II took four hours to
complete the transit this morning, the
planet crossing only the lower are Of
the sun. The distance between the sun
and Mercury during the passage this
morning was approximately $4,000 O0O
miles, according to scientists.
