Now, suppose a projectile were shot d.
rectly upward in order to make its path
through the atmosphere as short as DOS

rapidly diminish instead Of increasing. and
II the TrNiectile started with a velocity Of
seven miles per second-which in reality
slightly exceeds the true parabolic velocity

from an infinite distance to the distance of
the earth from the sun.
In the case OF Jules Verne's famous hol-
low projectile carrying human beings in
side, the intention, as | remember, was to
start it with Just sufficient velocity to
carry it to, or the least trife beyond, the
neutral point, where the attraction of the
earth would be balanced by that of the
moon.
The imaginary predicament in which the
ingenious Frenchmans Adventures found
themselves when they got near the moon
may serve as an illustration Of the actual
conditions prevailing In a projectile shot
toward the moon, but missing its aim so
far as to fall into q short orbit around the
moon. instead OF passing directly through
the neutral point on a straight line from
the earth's centre to the moons centre

it can never get back again, or that the
earth's attraction can never arrest it and
bring it down, as it arrests and brings
down ball thrown upward.
This velocity, then, is that with which
projectiIe would have TO be shot upward in
order to set it free from the earth. But
II would be possible to make pTOjeCtile
travel round the earth as a satellite, and
consequently never fall back upon the

scribe a circle around the earth and never

The reason for this can be explained
The Washington times., 1919-02-09

thus: First, the earth's attraction draws
all bodies downward toward the centre
about sixteen feet in the first second that
they are left free to fall, and this is true
whether or no the body has some other
motion, like that of a projectile.
Second. the curved surface OF the earth
rounds down about sixteen feet in dis
lance of five miles. Putting these two
facts together, it is seen that, although the
proiectile, while travelling forward five
miles in one second, has, at the same time,
fallen sixteen feet toward the earth yet
the surface of the earth has rounded on
sixteen feet in that distance, so that the
projectile is no nearer striking the GROUND

comes an ellipse, but now so large that
the projectue passes around the earth.
With further increase of velocity the size
of the elIipse increases proportionally'
until, when the velocity reaches an amount
represented by the square root OF two
times the velocity in a circle, the pro-
jectie suddenly achieves complete indie
pendence by turning into parabOliC orbit.
II the velocity is still further increased
beyond the parbOliC limit-in other words
if it becomes more than the square root
of two times the circular velocity--then
the projectile will pass from a parbOlic to
a hyperboIic curve, which also does not
return into itself.

from the earth; but, in fact, it has every
thing to do with it. II you throw a ball
straight up in the air it will fall back again
after gravity has arrested it at some
height depending upon the velocity with
which il started, and when it gets back to
your hand II will be travelling with the
same velocity that it had when it left your
hand. We can neglect the effects of air
resistance This is a fact Of observation
and not merely a deduction from theory.
But It shows at once that the law Of
parabolic velocity applies in a reversed
sense so that II a body acquires a velocity
of seven miles per second in falling from
an infinite distance to the earth then that
body If started from the earth at seven
miles per second will go on to an infinite
distance, which is the same as saying that

earth's surfac &c
rounds down sixty

-HE big gun with which the
Germans shot shells seventy.
= five miles to Paris has given
rise to many speculations as to the
possibility of actually putting into
practice Jules Vernes imaginary
achievement Of sending a huge pro-
iectile out into space so far that it
became independent of the earth,
and but for an unforeseen accident would
have landed on the moon.
This is a fascinating scientific problem,
and a consideration Of it leads to many
most interesting conclusions. Theoreti-
cally it is perfectly solvable, but whether
It will ever be practically solved is ques-
ton that must be left to the future. The
moment it is solved man will have crowned
his achievements by becoming the creator
Of a new planet, small in dimensions but
immense in fits perfect novelty.
The problem is, in substance, this:
How great a velocity must be given to a
proiectile in order that it may not only
overcome the resistance Of the air, but
may move away so swiftly that the pull Of
the earth's gravitation, while constantly
diminishing its velocity, can never stop it
entirely. and then, after stopping it, draw
it back again?
Now, the real stumbling block is the
variable and uncertain resistance of the
air, which changes with the velocity, the
shape, the size and the density Of the pro-
jectile, as well as with its-the air's-own
density.
The English mathematician, G. Green
hill, assumes that at a height Of twenty
miles the atmosphere must be so nearly
imperceptible that a projectile would fol-
low the mathematical law based on para
bolic curvature, and even at five miles
high the resistance would be very slight.
Major J. Naturalization, taking up the
question at this point, strikes off still far
Their on the Jules Verne track Remarking
that muzzle velocity of a mile per second
has already been attained, and assuming
that this might be increased to five miles
per second, he shows that a projectile
travelling with that velocity would become
"a grazing satellite" Of the earth circling
