Thir teen hours of each day are de voted to a sky of distant stars, with sunset occurring at the rela tively early time of 5:30 p.m. Ac cordingly, average nighttime lows drop to 42°, while the weakened sunlit highs reach only 64°. Yet, for all its coolness, this is a blessed season, when strik ingly colored days are followed by enhanced opportunities to read the scroll of night. One especially beautiful orna ment on that scroll is the nearby moon. It can be seen in the cra tered glory of its half-phase Fri day, October 14th. Accompany ing it to its far right will be the largest planet, Jupiter. This almost-star (which emits twice as much heat as it receives from the sun) appears bright white and far more conspicuous than any star in the sky. However, even - Jupiter is dwarfed in apparent luminosity by Venus, which pre cedes the sunrise in the east by two hours, rising at 4:30 a.m. Very near to brilliant Venus on its left is the glowing red planet Mars (also easily visible with the unaided eye) while close on its right is one of the brightest stars of night, Regulus. Such are some of the consolations of an insis tent early morning alarm clock! This Week’s Terrestrial Eye Opener (taken from the book. This is a Flower, by Ross Hutch ins): “As a general rule, wind pollinated plants that grow far apart produce more pollen. For example, plants growing 100 inches apart produce about ten thousand times more pollen than those growing only an inch apart.” —Larry Deckman Glow-in-the-dark star maps are currently available to be put on the ceiling above your bed for 57 each. To get a copy and light up your rainy nights with stars, call Larry Deckman at 343-7166. 1 SECOND NATURE USED BIKES New and used parts for the tourist, racer, commuter and cruiser.
