Scientist Shows Impossibility of Earth
Having Communication With Our
Neighboring Planets.
In attempting to oommvmifato with
Mars, then? are several factors that
must be taken into consideration,
llenry Meier of Center collosft
Slimmed these up nt a recent meeting
of the Kentucky Academy of Science,
lie said that in the first place the
probably low temperature, rarefiel
atmosphere and absence nf water on
Mars are against the existence t'tere
of beings similar to ourselves. In the
next place signaling by light must ho
given up, for the reason that the
earth's atmosphere would absorb 40
per cent of the light sent out, and
the disrnnce was so great that an
area of light ten miles square on the
earth would, if seen from Mara
through n telescope magnifying WH1
times, appear like an nrea one inch
square .viewed at a distance of MX)
feet. In considering signals by radio.
it lias been computed that It would
require a current of n million am
peres nt the sending station to ob
tain one of one nntpere nt a receiv
ing station on Mars. And Mr. Meier
remarked that the powerful electric
current sent out by the sun would
probably overwhelm the weak waves
