Ait- kin, assistant director off Lick Ob- servatory, said in an address before the San Jose Rotary Club yesterday, that it is absurd to assume that the earth is the only inhabited or habit- able planet. “The milky way contains suns,” Dr. Aitkin said “Each is prob- ably surrounded by its own system of planets; each may be greater than our own solar system. In view of this it seems absurd to think that of this vast universe of heavenly bodies, but one tiny, infinitesimal planet, earth, contains the only intelligent beings. Commenting on the markings of Mars as evidence of life on that plan- et, Dr. Aitkin said that to be visible to astronomers of this earth, mark- ings would have to be from 50 to 100 miles wide, hence the notion that such markings, plainly visible as they are, are canals such as would be built on this earth, is absurd, “Its not like- 1y they are canals,” he added, “unless they do (hings very different on Mars than on earth.” . Dr. Aitkin's remarks were based on recent observations of Mars, while that planet wgs nearest the earth. He said no formal report could be made for at least two weeks more.
