BAKER (Professor of Astronomy, University of Illinois Urbana, T, July 7 P — The ng2d planet Saturn will be a con- spicuous feature in the southern sky during the month of July. It is casily found in the constellation Scorpio above the brilliant red star Antares. Saturn is now 800 million miles from us. rly 30 years is required to complete its circuit around the sun, so that in a single month its position among the stars does not ange greatly. Next to Jupiter, Saturn is the largest of the planets, having a di- ameter of 74,000 miles. It is further rkable because of its rings, nine | satellites and its low density—only two-thirds that of water. This great planet would float like a cork, if there were a pond big enough to! float it Through the telescope, Saturn is a beautiful object. By many it is considered the most spectacular of the heavenly bodies. The rings and several of the satellites are plainly visible in a telescope no larger than three inches in aperture. turn's rings are swarms of small solid meteors which revolve around planent in the plane of its equator, and which shine as the planet does by reflected sunlight. Although they are 173,000 miles across, the rings are only a few miles thick quently when they are viewed edge- disappear even in powerful s, The opportunity to see > rings on edge occurs every 15 ¥ The last occasion was in This vear the rings are tilted probably pieces like | the | Conse- | satellite spolled in the making we do not now know. It may be that they are the chance survival of rings which once encircled the planets generally, including the earth. How- | ever that may be, the rings of Saturn are now unique as far as we know. The constellation Scorpio itself is worth finding, and once found it will not be readily forgotten. It suggests a scorplon with a formidable curved sting, if one allows his imagination a little latitude. Only July 15 it ap- pears due south in the evening as soon as the sky becomes dark. Scorpio is one of the twelve con- stellations of the zodiac through which the sun appears to move an- nually. Antares, the “rival of Mars," so named because of its red color, is the brightest star of Scorpio. It is also the largest known star. As everyone knows, the stars are enor- mous self-luminous spheres of gas like the sun, whose diameter s nearly a million miles. But Antares is a super-sun. Its diameter is 450 million miles. It is interesting to star Antares with the neighboring planet Saturn. The star twinkles while the planet shines with a steady light. Absence of twinkling is cha acteristic of the larger planets, a. one may observe by turning west ftoward the bright evening planct Venus. compare the SCHOOL BOARD MEETING The regular monthly meeting of the school board will be held next | Wednesday afternoonsinstead of to- morrow.
