The alert investigators hope to
satisfy their curiosities on the ma
ture of life, if any, from heat re-
cords and glimpses of the stars as
seen through powerful huge tele-
scopes.
Rays of life from far-off planets
are picked up by the sky-penetrat-
ing lenses at Mt. Wilson and are
passed into the photo-electric cells.
Reactions of the rays in the cells
are studied and then recorded. From
these records calculations are made
as to the temperature of the sphere
under observation.
The light rays before being passed
through the cells are magnified
from 100 to 1000 times SO as to
catch the slightest variation in in
tensity, scientists explained.
The photo electric cell thermo-
couple is believed by them to be the
most sensitive equipment ever de-
vised by man to record heat.
They were quick to point out that
their work has not been to satisfy
solely mans curiosity about life, but
to determine for purely scientific
knowledge the temperatures of glob-
es floating in the universe.
Possibility that some form of life
might be present on these globes is
admitted by scientific observers but
there have been doubts that it was
similar to that on earth.
