Under such W FACING SOUTH Antares Saturn SAGITTARIUS SCORPIO it by less than half-an-hour. Of the three planets, Saturn alone remains to us, and is low down in the south-west, Uranus, it may be remarked for those with telescopes, being now as throughout the year its near companion. Saturn is not particularly well placed during 1897 for telescopic observation; it is so far south tation as it now offers, a good telescope and keen sight may enable the observer to detect gaps and notches in the outer portion of the ring, which give visual evidence of the correctness of Clerk Maxwell's mathematical analysis. Proverb-Slow help is no help. |
