What planet are we going to pass by next?" asked Paul.
 We shall pass within 30,000,000 miles of the planet Jupiter" the professor replied. Jupiter is the biggest of all the planets that go around the sun, isn't it?"
 ,"Yes, Jupiter has a bulk more than a thousand times as great as the bulk of the earth" I
 Are there any people living on Jupiter?" ,~"
 "No, rocketmen have made II visits to Jupiter but have never found people of any kind. The climate there is very cold, far colder than the climate of Mars. The sun seems to be about the size of an orange from the surface of Jupiter"
 ''It certainly Is pity that so much land should be going to waste" broke in Marlene, who had been listening to the questions and answers. n,
 "Yes," the professor agreed, If Jupiter had a warm climate 1t could support billions of people. Life would not be very enjoyable to them, however. I have made one visit to Jupiter and the light of day on that planet was so dim that I had to use fashlight to find my way around. Even then, stumbled time and again. The surface of Jupiter contains thousands of square miles of lava which has hardened after being sent forth by volcanoes. This lava provides rough plac for walking. and even with fufi daylight a person might easily stumble"
 II can see Jupiter through the telescope!" shouted Paul.
 A few minutes later the rocket left the great planet behind.
 Are we going to pass near Saturn and Uranus?" asked Paul.
 we shall pass within 5.000,0O0 miles of Saturn" said the pro- lessor, but Uranus is now on the opposite side of the sky, and we shall not see it."
 DO Saturn and Uranus have people on them?" asked Marlene.
 No, they are even colder than Jupiter, since they are much far ther away from the sun. and neither one has plants or animals of any kind. If there were people on Saturn, they would have love- ly sight to see when the rings are lighted up after sunset"
 Thus. the time sped by. new wonders unfolding all the while. The atom engine of the Spirit of Freedom" was working merrily, and the great rocket was travelling faster than any rocket had ever travelled before.
