FEWER COMETS
HAVE APPEARED
IN LATE YEARS
None in Naked Eye Class
Has Been Seen
Since 1911.
BY DAVID DIETZ
scripps Science Editor

II is beginning to look as though
1888 would end without that pig
comet for which astronomers are
looking. OF course, Santa Claus
might bring it, but there's no ad-
vance notice if he is planning to do
so.
In 1881 I wrote that astronomers
were on the lookout for a big comet,
that one was overdue on the basis
OF the law Of probabilities and that
many astronomers believed that it
might show up before the end Of
the year. It didn't.
In 1882, I reported that many as
tronomers felt that since it didn't
show up in 1881, it might in that
year But it didn't. And now 1893
IS almost over and still there has
been no big comet.
The last naked eye" comet chat
is, a comet big enough and close
enough to make an impressive spec
tacle TO the unaided eye was seen
in 1911. The early part of the
present century had three fine
naked-eye comets, Moorenouse' S
comet in 1910 and Brooks comet in
1911. These we're magnificent sights
and attracted great attention.
But the century to date has had
q shortage of big comets.
Astronomical records reveal that
about 400 comets were seen before
the invention of the telescope. OBJ
viously these all had to be naked
eye comets. The records go back to
about 1000 B. C. The telescope was
first used by Calico in 1909.
Average Fifteen a Century
This means that in twenty-six
centuries, therefore, there were 400
naked-eye comets. This is an aver
age Of fifteen or sixteen to century
One third of the present century is
gone and we have only had three.
In other words, we are two behind
schedule.
Comets which are visible in the
telescope are not unusual. About 500
have been recorded since the year
1900 About five of them a year
is an average, although eleven were
discovered in 1925.
When a comet is first picked up by
means Of a telescope, it appears only
as a star-like spot of light, usually
with a fuzzy or hazy appearance.
This will surprise many people who
always think of a comet as having
q long tail The tail develops as
the comet approaches the sun. AS
the tail grows longer, the head grows
smaller, making it apparent that
the tail grows at the expense of the
head.
Tail Has Great Length
The tail of a comet always points
away from the sun so that when the
comet is receding from the neigh
borhood of the sun, the tail does not
trail behind the head. but extends
in front of it, stretching out in the
same direction that the comet is
moving. AS the comet fades into the
distance, the tail grows smaller
again and finally disappears.
The head Of a comet is divided
into two parts, a small, bright center
called the nucleus. and, surrounding
this, a fuzzy, hazy mass called the
coma. The volume of a comet is
enormous. The diameter of the
coma will range from 10000 to $780,
900 miles as a rule, although the
nucleus may be only 500 miles
