Above us there extends a vat unex plored space far more interesting from a scientific point of view than trie icy regions around the morth pole. No one can reach the limit of the upper regions of the air and live, unless he carries with him air to breathe and fuel to warm him; for at the paltry distance of ten miles above the earth the air is too thin to support respiration, and the thermometer would register far below zero. It would be a region of perpetual snow on a peak of the earth if it should rise to such a height. A person in a bal loon could not hear a friend in a neigh boring balloon, even if they were near enough to shake hands. There would be no medium for the propagation of sound waves. There would, however, still be a medium in fact of great con ductibility almost as good as a metal; and it is thisi medium at even a less height which Tesla proposes to use' in his methods of transmitting power hundreds of miles through the air with out wires. We live under a blanket of air which protects us from the extreme cold of outer space. This low temperature be comes evident 14,000 or 15,000 feet above the surface of the earth, and would, as I have said, reach a point far below zero at a height of ten miles. At this height we should no longer observe the twink ling of the stars; for this scintillation is due to the movements of our atmos phere, which at the height I have men tioned would be extremely rarefied. If one could photograph the sun's spec trum at this altitude we could greatly extend our knowledge of the shortest wave lengths of light; for the atmos phere completely absorbs such wave lengths as are concerned iu the X-ray phenomena. That this absorption real ly takes place can be proved in a labora tory. The heat and light which we receive from the sun are thus greatly modified by this blanketing layer of air. The long waves of the energy from the sun are called heat waves. The interme diate waves are termed light waves; and we receive these in full measure. The. very short waves, however, are stopped by o-ur atmosphere and are transformed into what? Forum. HI Yearn. Seldum Fedd I'd like to have a repu tation as an after-dinner -speaker.
