SAYS MOONS HEAT
DEPENDS ON SUN
Astronomer Declares Range
Probably Is From Boiling in
Day to Zero at Night.
By tho Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass, December 90
The temperature on the moon prob
ably ranges from we'll above the boil
ing point when the sun is at its ze-
NTH 10 far below zero during the
night, scientific observations indicate,
Prof. Donald II. Menzel Of Princeton
said in a paper submitted today to the
American Astronomical Society. The
paper outlined new methods of calcu-
lating the temperatures Of the plan
cts. emphasizing that the tentative
results reached by these methods were
not final.
Moon Definitely Heated.
"Whatever the amount Of water
vapor present In our atmosphere" he
said, "the indications are that the
surface Of the moon Is dehniteIy neat
ed: probably when the sun is at the
be well above that Of boiling water.
and during the long night be far be-
low the zero of our thermometer.
THE values for Venus and Mars are
very dependent upon the water Vapor
and very little can be got from the
observations: Both planets nave an
atmosphere. Mars. being very thin and
that of Venus resembling ours TO a
certain extent. The results Indicate
that the atmosphere Of Mars does lit
tie to shield the surface and that the
temperature at the equator during the
day may be as high as 20 or % de-
gress centigrade. with a large fall
during the night. We must have
further evidence as to Venus; II Is
certain, however that its temperature
is higher than our earths.
O>hers Have Own Heat,
For the two larger planets. Jupiter
and Saturn. 1t Is very definite that
they radiate some heat of their own.
If they were warmed only by the heat
of the sun they would be 100 to ie0
degrees below zero centigrade. The
temperatures obtained for these plan
cts are probably fairly accurate and
we have for Jupiter obtained some
thing less than 80 below zero cent?
grade, while Saturn is hotter by some
20 degrees. a result not unreasonable.
for Saturn is much less dense than
the former"
The heat measurements AS mada at
the Lowell Observatory in Arizona in
volve the use Of a delicate instrument
known as the thermocouple. which IS
capable of detecting the heat from a
tallow candle at a distance of MANY
miles.
