follows that the density at their sur

most probable explanation is that they con

so that after all. they may have as much
thermal energy As is needed 10 maintain

We must next confront the question
from another point Chlorophyll is not a
constituent of the atmosphere on the earth
but is a compound substance found in the
cells of plants Now. in order spectre
scOpically 10 analyze chlorophyll the proc
ess used is 10 project a spectrum of oTdi-
nary light through a dilute solution of
ChlorOphyll, whereupOn a characteristic red
color, due to duOrescent action of the
chlOrOphyll, is seen and a certain part OF
the spectrum is cut out by absorption But
such a laboratory experiment cannot be
tried by us on a distant planet. and the ac-
tiOn of chlOrOphyu upon the light reflected
from a planet must take place. somehow by
a natural process in its atmosphere, or in
the upper strata of It's globe, if that globe
be composed of gas or vapOr
It is quite conceivable that light trans
mitted through immense quantities Of
leaves filled with chlorOphyi would ex-
nibit the characteristic absorptive effects
Of that substance But, how could we eX-
plain the existence of vast forests on the
surface of a planet of so slight density as
that OF either Uranus or Neptuue2
There are two opposite views which
might be taken. First. it might be sup
posed that the slight density of those
planets is due 10 the extreme lightness of
the substances composing them, the soil
of their surface. for instance, being as
light as dust and the sOlidest rocks re-
sembling pumice stone WhS'her living
organisms. such as plants and animals,
could be formed out of substances of so
low density is a question that we. perhaps.
cannot settle on the basis of our terrestrial
experience. But assuming that thev could
be formed. and that a substance identical
in nature with chlorOphyll constitutes an
essential part of their cells 10 is COnceiv-
able that the existence Of the chlorophyll
might be revealed by its effects upon the
light passing through the translucent
structure OF vegetable organisms resem-
bling leaves in their functions
Indeed. once launched on the sea Of
speculation we might assume that under
the different circumstances Of a planet so
variant from the earth as either OF the
two we are considering plants as well as
animals or plants instead OF animals.

qualities that, on our globe, are associated
