GARRETT P. SERVISS ON MOONS
INFLUENCES
Science Really Unable to Say Just How Much
Lunar Orb Affects Earth.

Believing that the moon
has some magnetic influence
upon the human being, espe.
cially those epileptic. l wish to
ask your opinion, which would
be OF interest to many. have
experimental with this ancient
beliefs. II. S., New York"
IF you will consult the books
i and other writings of astron-
omers, you will find that they
say very little on the subject
of the. moons supposed influence
over human beings and other
forms Of life on the earth. This
shows that very little is known
about 1t, even by those whose
business, as we may say, is to
find out all that can possibly be
discovered about the heavenly
bodies and their relations to the
earth.
Next to astronomers, among
those who might be expected to
know something Of the moons
influences, other than its ordi-
nary gravitational and light-giv-
ing effects, are agriculturists and
meteorologists. I think you win
find that scientific agriculturists
have no confidence in the tradi-
tional lunar influences over vege-
tation which many farmers and
gardeners believe in, saying that
their experience justifies such be-
lief. AS far as / personally have
looked into tie matter, 1 have
seen no evidence that the moon
influences perceptibly the gerrni-
nation or growth of plants.
Not Absurd Idea.
At the same time there II
nothing inherently absurd in the
supposition that, since the moon
sends considerable light to the
earth REFLECTED sunlight) and a
perceptible amount of heat, and
also has a slight but measurable
effect upon the earth's magnet
ism, 1t may influence both animal
and plant life in manner more
or less resembling that in which
we know that the suns radiant
energy affects those things.
If the moon does exercise any
such influence 1t owes it's power
to do so mainly to the sun, whose
rays 1t both NabSorbs ana reflects.
The apparent size of the moons
disk is almost exactly the same
as that of the sun. If, then, 1t
were a perfect reflecting mirror,
1t would give us as much light on
a full moon night as we get from
the sun in the day time.
In fact. however, the full moon
gives us only about one six nun
dred thousandth as must light as
the sun.
In like manner the moon alb
serbs the heat rays from the sun
and sends some of them back to
us by reflection, but in addition
to the directly reflected heat
rays the moon gives us. others
which 1t first absorbs, and then,
as its surface becomes warmed,

ture. Ali together, the proper
ton Of solar heat that thus finds
its way to the earth by way Of
the moon is larger than tf:at Of
the solar light that comes the
same roundabout journey. While
the full moons light, as above
said, is about one 600, ,00Oth Of the
suns, Its heat, cold as 1t seems
when seen sailing among the
stars in the night sky, is, accord.
ing to some measurements, as
much as one 185, 5,000th of the
suns.
From what has been said you
may draw the conclusion that
whatever the influence of moon
light and moon heat may be upon
terrestrial life, it's nature should
not differ, except in intensity.
from that OF the suns direct rays.
The meterologists find no more
ground for confidence in the
similar traditions concerning
lunar influences upon the growth
Of plants. Scientific experiments
have not confirmed the traditional
influences, the belief in which is
thought to rest upon insufficient
observation and upon the accep-
tance of coincidence for casual
relationship.
Finally we come to the ques-
tion Of the possibility of lunar
influence over human ills. There
Is no doubt that the moon does
exercise a magnetic influence
upon the earth, but 1t is very
slight, and do not know of any
way in which it has been shown
to affect either health or dis
ease. One may readily imagine
that 1t does affect them, under
the impression produced by acci-
dental coincidence, and one might
also build up system Of lunar
Therapeutics on an imaginary
basis, but it would have to wait
for another age to give 1t scien-
tific recognition.
