Univac 'Rediscovers'
Eighth Jupiter Moon
BY the Associosed Pres.

NEW YORK, Feb. "a. - An
electronic brain has "redis-
covered" in record time the
eighth moon of Jupiter, un-
sighted by astronomers since
1941.
Use Of the electronic device
the Univac - was announced
yesterday at a news conference
by DR.. Paul Herget. director of
the Cincinnati Observatory.
Computations made by Univac,
DR.. Herget said, enabled the
eighth moon to be sighted from
the Mount Wilson Observatory in
California on the night of Janu-
ary Is.
In 20 minutes DR.. Herget said,
the calculator plotted the astral
path of the missing" moon up
to 1880.
Jupiter has IL moons. As
tronomers say the great masses
of Jupiter and the sun pull the
moons farther from a true"
circular or elliptic path-so the
IL moons can be predicted by
classical mechanical analysis"
only with great difficulty.
The eighth moon is 100000
times fainter than the faintest
star visible to the naked eye.
