Today's Science
by DAVID DIETZ.

CIR JAMES JEANS stands by his guns-or should
- we say his stars? The eminent British astrono-
is still of the opinion that the stars of the Milky
Way are from five to 10 trillion years old and that
there. is possibility of the universe being 200 ril
lion years old.
This view is in direct contradiction to the latest
work upon the theory of the expanding universe
cording to which Shapley and other arrive at an
age of some ten billion years for the universe.
1t was in 1929 that Sir James wrote THE Universe
Around U.s." The book rapidly became best seller
in both England and America. In it, in beautiful
and lucid style Sir James set forth his theories about
the nature and origin of the universe.
To the stars. he assigned an age which then was
generally agreed upon by astronomers, namely five
to ten trilion years. He speculated upon how long
the stuff out of which stars made might have
sed prior to the birth of the stars and decided that
it could be an indefinite period ranging from mini
of another five or ten trillion years to maxi
of two hundred trillion years
7 EMAITRES theory of an expanding universe
IL gives another picture of the start of the uni
verse. According to the theory. developed in 1888
by Lemaitre and Vallarta, the universe began
gigantic Super-atom. Space began to expand when
this Super-atom exploded.
Knowing the present distribution of the spiral
nebulae and the rate Of expansion of space-it is
hundred miles second million light-yearS of
spaceit is possible to calculate when the explosion
must have taken place.
According to the calculations of Shapey and
Others it took place ten billion years ago. Here is
figure which in no way agrees with the trillions
which Sir James gets from his theories of stellar
luton.
VXTHEN wrote my Story of Science" in 1881, I

the third edition, published this year. employed
Lematres figures. pointing out, however. that it still

of the stars
When it was announced recently that Sir James

Around Us" eager to see what figures he would
employ. He includes excellent discussion of L.
maitre's theory but he sticks by his own figures He
believes that the theory Of stellar evolution gives
better notion Of the age of the universe and that
the theory of the expanding universe will have to
be remodeled to fit.

brand new in the history of Washington AS far as
I can gather this brash young Biddle seems deter
