ASTRONOMY NOTES
 By OLAF HALVERSON

This Christmas season will be feralded in by the planet Jupiter, the largest of all the planets. Like a star in the east it is now beau tifully visible just before dawn .
 Jupiter's equatorial diameter is 588,640 miles, and is II times the earth's diameter. Its mass exceeds the combined mass of all the other planets. With the exception of Venus, and occasionlly Mars, this planet is the brightest starlike object in our skies.
 Even a small telescope shows its four bright satellites and dark cloud belts clearly. Jupiter has twelve known satellites, the great est number attending a planet. At a distance of almost 500 mil } '0r miles, Jupiter revolves around the sun once in nearly 12 years, /: it advances one sign of the zo- .diac from year to year. Its period of rotation is about g hours and 50 minutes.

naming Prof. Horia Hulubei,
director of the Romanian In
stitute of Atomic Physics, to
the Soviet experts panel.
This was open to at least
two interpretations. both of
which were under study at the
State Department. Since the
latest message was labeled a

tended as a part Of the earlier
Tuesday position, which would
be superseded by the Wednes-

On the other hand, the note

some "a hours after the

Reasons Not Clear
No guidance on the reasons
for the bewildering Soviet
maneuvers had come to the
State Department from Mos

private speculation that there
was, at a minimum, confusion
in the Soviet Foreign Office,
and, at a maximum, a new
