MIleN Are Too Insigninenant to le Used Ira JIt Computation. Whiile it is interesting to know the distance of some of the stars in miles, when statel1 In that way the numbers are so large that they frequently con vey very indistinct conceptions to the mind. For this reason it is customary to estimate stars' distances In "light years." A light year is the distance that light, moving at the rate of 180,800 miles per second, travels in one year. This amounts in round numbers to 5,880.000,000,000 miles. The distance f Alpha C'entauri Is 4.35 light years, that o1' Sirius, the dog star, is almost. exactly twice as great, or 8.0 lIght rears. In other words, light reqluires 3.G years to come to us from Sirius. andI these are among the very nearest f the stars. Sonie whose parallaxes inve becen rather estimated thani meas Iredl appearedl to lbe situated at a dis anice which light couldl not traverse pi less than one or two centuries. The treat star Arcturus, for instance, has, ccording to Dr. Elkin, a parallax of nly eighteen-thosandths of a second. :ts distance must in that case b~e about 81 lIght years, or more than a thou and million -million miles. And if its listance is so great, then, siunce light rarles inversely as the square of the listance from its source, it can be 4hown that Arcturus must actually live forth 5,000 or 6,000 tImes as much Light as the sun yields. Yet Arcturus is evidently much near er than the vast majority of the stars are. Not one In a million is knowni to have a parallax large enough even to lbe intelligently guessed at. There may be stars whose light requires thousands Instead of hundreds of years to cross the space separating them from us. We thus see that only a few noints on the nearer shores of the starry uni verse lie within reach of our measure ments-here andI there a jutting head land, while b~ehindI stretches the vast expanse over which the hundreds of millions of stars known to exist are scattered.
