sun TO GO OUT
IN JUNE, 1918
Astronomers Prepare For
Total Eclipse During
That Month

Denver, Colo, Dec. 15.-Astronofn-
ers throughout the country already
are preparing for the work OF OBJ
serving the total eclipse of the sun
which will occur June s, 1918, and
which will be visible in its totality
along sixty mile strip extending
across the United States from the
southwestern corner of the state OF
Washington on the Pacific coast TO
Florida on the Atlantic. Astronom-
ers consider themselves unusually
fortunate in their opportunity for OBJ
serving this eclipse, one OF seven
visible in the United States during
the present century in that the cen
ter line OF this sixty mile strip
passes within four miles OF the OBJ
where photographs OF the corona of
the sun will be taken with the aid
Of the great telescope, which is
equipped with q twenty inch lens.
According to Dean Herbert A.
Howe, head of the department Of
astronomy at Denver university, this
is the first time that the path Of
total eclipse has reached an observa-
tory containing a telescope of this
size. and astronomers are hopeful
of learning more definitely the com
position OF the suns corona, which
appears as a great glow around the
sun when the solar body Is obscured
entirely by the moon
Special Apparatus Built.
Prof. Edwin b. Frost, director OF
the Yerkes observatory Of the UNI
versity OF Chicago, already has made
arrangements to use the facilities Of
Denver university for making his
observations, and now is construct
ing special apparatus to be used in
connection with the telescope equiv
ment here.
To guard against unfavorable
weather conditions here, another ex-
petition from the Yerkes observa-
tory will be stationed at Green River,
Wye, which also is near the center
line of the path Of the eclipse. There
will not be another total eclipse visi-
BILE in the United States until 1916.
Two hours Is minutes and 21.5
seconds will elapse from the time
the moon first intervenes between
the sun and the earth and the sun
will be totally obscured for a period
Of 1877 seconds. 1t is during this
brief period of less than a minute
and a half that the astronomers will
do their most important work.
Photographs will be taken of the
corona and of the spectrum as well
as the prominences of the sun.
Corona Visible 10 Naked Eye.
The corona as well as the promi-
nences, Dean Howe explained, should |
be visible to the naked eye to per-
sons within the sixty mile belt of |
tota1ity and should be seen to adj |
vantage with the use Of an ordinary |
field or opera glass.
Although the eclipse will be total |
only in the narrow belt extending |
from washington to Florida, part |
ial eclipse viii be visible throughout |
the country. The United States is |
the only place the total |
eclipse viii be visible.
Dean Howe Is preparing to take |
photographs OF the field |
around the sun especially to confirm |
or disprove the existence OF a planet, |
called Vulcan. said to be travelling |
In an orbit so close TO the great |
luminary that 1t is extremely diff |
fcult to see even during an eclipse.
