BIGGEST PLANETS
ARE NOW VISIBLE
Father Weber, Wheeling's Foremost
Observer, is at Work With
New TELESCOPE

; Jupiter and Saturn--the planets. are
now visible and in good location for
observation. says Father Edward +.
Weber. chancellor Of the CATHOLIC
diocese Of Wheeling, and recognized
observer of armament phenomena.
Father Weber says that Jupiter and
Saturn, the largest planets, may be
seen these evenings, Jupiter in the
western skies, settings about 10
o'clock, and Saturn in the northeast,
near the TWO permanent twin stars.
Saturn set sshortly after midnight.
| Jupiter is Of interest to amateurs
: because four Of its moons may also be
seen through the smallest telescopes.
BuI h. has five others which are Wis
ible only through the largest and most
perfect instruments and under the
most favorable weather conditions.
i Saturn. renowned for The rings
that encirCle him, also his rctinue Dt

! in few days the smallest Of the
major planets. Mercury, will be Wis
ible. 1t will rise in the east about an
hour before sunrise sometime between
February 10 and ~.
> Father Weber agreed that he might
be practically the only person in
Wheeling who would purposrly get up
before the sun several mornings TO
see Mercury'S debut.
! Mercury is 50 near TO the sun that
he will be- difficult to see" he re-
marked.
