RIDE ON SUNBEAM EXPRESS
Journey That Would Be Remarkable
for Speed and for Wonders
Seen Along the Way.

Emile BelOt, the French astronomer,
suggests that, if one were able to
straddle a light ray (Which travels
10000 miles a secOnd) and thus vOy-
age through space, observations along
the route would be exceedingly inter-
esting.
It would take only a little more
than a second to reach the moon and
In 4 minutes and 20 seconds one would
arrive at the planet Mars. One would
get as far as Jupiter in 80 minutes,
to Saturn in 20 minutes, to Uranus in
2h hours and to Neptune in hours.
On the way one would come across
a great many comets without tails
nebulous bodies Of spherical shape
which are rarely seen from the earth.
1t would take two years to get out
side the sphere Of the SUMS attraction,
and by that time our orb Of day
would look like nothing more import
ant than big star.
The star nearest to us, Alpha Cen
tauri, would meanwhile be looming up,
and the wayfarer through space might
expect to arrive there in little more
than four years. By this time he
would have jOurneyed 24,OOO,OOOOOO
miles.
