HUMAN FACE AS A BEACON
Radiometer Able to Record the
"Shine" Thrown OFF, at Distance
of Several Miles.

Novelists that speak of a face
lighting up" put down an actual truth
that few of them are aware of or in
tend, One of the most delicate in
struments in the world, a radiometer,
records the "shine" of human face,
and can do it at a distance of several
miles. So delicate is tine instrument
that it can detect and record the glim-
mer of a candle half mile away, and
II there were no atmospheric obstruc-
ton it could detect the same candle &c
miles away. The instrument consists
of two thin glass disks, one polished
and one blackened, suspended by q
quartz thread in vacuum. Waves of
radiant energy striking this instru-
ment disturb its balance. because the
bright disk reflects them, while the
black one absorbs them.
While the human face to the nor
NAL eye gives out no waves of radiant
energy, the fact remains that con-
slant flow of energy is being thrown
off, and these waves travel an I'M
known distance. Although the radio
meter is wonderful and delicate in
strunent. there is thermal couple
ten times as sensitive SIS the radiome-
ter and it can detect the heat of a
candle 60 miles distant.
