Is Life On Venus =?

ysive supply Of heat arising from
her relative nearness to the sun.
The only apparent disadvantages
are: ~ She is so much nearer the
sun that upon the whole she gets
about twice as much solar light and
heat as the earth gets: and (2) her
avial rotation may be so slow as to
coincide in period with her revolu.
ton around the sun. which would
cause her to keep one side always
toward the sun, as the moon keeps
one side always toward the earth.
This would give perpetual day to
one hemisphere and perpetual night
to the other
But there are mitigating cir
cumstances affecting these sup
posed disadvantages. AS to the
first, we have already remarked
that the apparent cloudiness OF
Venus atmosphere should serve
as a shield against excessive solar
radiation. Moreover, 1t appears
that her axis OF rotation is nearly.
or quite, perpendicular to the plane
of her obit around the sun, and
this implies a very different ar.
rangement OF climatic zones from
that prevailing on the earth,
though not unfavorable to the well.
being Of the Inhabitants.
With a perpendicular axis, tho
climates must be unshifting-a tor
rid zone bordering the equator; fix.
ed temperate zones occupying mid.
die and upper middle latitudes, and
a frigid circle, with unchanginB
temperature and illumination, sur.
rounding each pole. Such an ar
rangement may render the polar
regions and the upper latitudes OF
Venus the most desirable parts OF
the planet for the maintenance OF
the higher forms of life.
The equability OF life conditions
on Venus is emphasized by the fact
that her orbit is so nearly a per
feet circle that the distance be-
tween her and the sun Is practical
ly Changeless as regards effect
upon the temperature OF the
planet.
Concerning the second apparent
disadvantage. 1t may be said that
there is az yet no certainty that
Venus rotation period ls so short
that she keeps the same face al
ways directed sunward. According
to some OF the observations made
to settle the question. Venus ro.
tates in a period not very different
from that OF the earth's rotation.
Her days may be considerabl
longer than ours with no unfavor-
able effect upon life: while. IL she
, really has contrasted hemispheres
as described above, Il does not
necessarily follow that either or
both OF them should be uninhabit.
able. In fact, as ] have shown In
"A Columbus of Space" such

ways a more interesting place OF

her the last move; we drew apart
