ASTRONOMY A NOTES By OLAF HAIVORSON

East of the Harp star" Vega lies the Great Northern Cross" The brilliant white star at the head of the cross, is very distant sun but it is so large that it shines brightly among our finest stars. It has been estimated by astronomers that this bright star, called Deneb, is at a much greater distance than the star Vega.
 In contrast to the huge sun that Deneb must be to shine so bright ly at so great distance, is little star above the eastern arm of the cross This small star is the nearest star to the earth in the northern hemisphere.
 Close to this small star is large dark nebulae" The black spots and rifts in the Milky Way are now generally accepted to be dark nebulous matter which cuts off the light from the stellar regions behind them.
