lines have been found shifted toward
the red. In other words, the nebulae all
appear to be moving away from the
earth
Two years ago DR.. Edwin P. Hubble
found relation between the apparent
faintness. or distance, Of the nebulae
and their velocitieS. This relation
showed that the velocities were linear
functions of the distance and that the
velocities increased at the rate OF about
100 miles per second per million light
years of distance
The relation was cnly established to
a distance of about six million light
years, since the spcctra of fainter or
more distant nebulae were not avail
able
Since then the velocities Of nebulae

the spectrum Of the nebula. This is
usually done by photographing the
spectrum of helium directly alongside
of the nebular spectrum.
On the photograph is seen the spec
trum of the nebula and that produced
by helium tube. The velocity of the
nebula is determined by measuring the
shift of the lines in the nebula with re-
spect to the lines in the spectrum of
helium. If the lines are shifted toward
the violet end of the spectrum, it would
indicate velocity of approach. If they
are shifted toward the red end of the
spectrum, it would indicate a velocity
of recession.

Shifts Are Measured.
In the spectrum Of a nebula are GER
tain lines which may be seen. TWO
CT the strongest and most important
are due to the clement, calcium. They
are known as tie H and K lines, and
the velocity of speed the nebula Is
travelling through space is determined
by measuring the amount Of shift. or
displacement Of the lines from their
normal position.
In order to measure the amount Of
shift, it is necessary to have a refer
ence spectrum on the same plate with

The. faintest nebula whose velocity
has ben observed is in the consolation
of Leo. DR.. Hubble estimates its dis
lance as about los million light years
and its visual magnitude at about l55.
This nebula is therefore $500 times
