HUGH PRUETT Astronomer, Oregon General Extenaloa Division When we contemplate a clear night sky, artistically sot with Its myriads of twinkling stars of many degrees of brilliancy, and note how the entire crystal line sphere turns smoothly west ward, do we not sometimes feci that Intertwined In all this per fect order and harmony thcro Is something closely akin to ex quisite music? Many of the ancient peoples believed that harmonious sounds were actually present In the star ry heavens. Some worked out definite relations between the movements of the planets and their music. Prom this has come the expression, "the music of the spheres." The noted Grecian, Pythagoras (6th century B. C), taught that as the planets "In order bright" swing through the firmament, they emitted clear and pure mu sical notes. Since the note of each depended upon its speed and this in turn upon Its distance he felt that the spacing of these heavenly bodies was perfectly ar ranged, for the combinations of the notes produced splendid har mony; indeod, a symphony so majestic as well-nigh to surpass human comprehension. The slower-moving pianola were thought to produce the bass, the pitch In creasing with the greater re moteness of the body. The Pythagoreans reasoned thus: The sounds produced by the planets In motion are ex tremely loud, but they are In perfect harmony. Why do we not notice them? Because so accus tomed to them are we, having heard them since birth, that we are no more conscious of their vibrations than is a copDcrsmith of the din he produces. The seven plnnets (sun and moon included) arc the seven strings of the heavenly lvre which gives .us this beautiful "harmony of the sphores." It is a heptachord. Tho sphere of the fixed stars furnishes nn eighth. i This notion was generally held even to the time of the astrono mer Kepler (about A. D. 1600), who. knowing that any one planet varied somewhat In speed, wrote several notes as the contribution of each. To Snturn he assigned the deep bass, around two octaves below mid dle C. Swift Mercury's notes were fur above the treble staff. Astronomy and music surely are not discordant. Witness the great of the world who have worshipped at the shrines of both: Galileo, Herschel, Bulnt Snons, Jeans, Einstein. In his symphonic suite of seven tone poems, "The Planets," Gustuv Hoist memorialized the "har mony of the spheres." As this Christmas season finds brilliant Venus, a fitting star of the cast, with all her celestial attendants glorious in the pro dawn sky, we may In fancy de clare that the "morning stars sing together." But poetical figures aside, surely the adher ents of the faith of the ancient Pythagoreans would rate us as unbelievers. How much more easily can we subscribe to the beautiful lines of Phillips Brooks: "Above thy deep and dream less sleep The silent stars go by." Scientists used to say the earth was gradually cooling. Now they don't know whether it Is cooling off or getting hotter. f y .:- L In it.
