Observatories - . QOO6 .
To I-View, Mercury
The College observatories were open last night, and - will be
open from 6 ;to 7:30 today and tomorrow for• students, faculty, and
townspeople to view the planet Mercury through ,the • telescopes.
Mercury will be clearly visible to the human eye since, it
at its greatest distance from -the sun.
Mercury, the planet closest' to the sun, is so visible to the naked
eye about two or three times each
year,- Carl A. Bauer, assistant pro
fessor of physics, said.
When looking at Me r cur y
thrOugh the telescope, it will look
like a crescent or • a half-moon,
since it is the furthest distance it
can get - fromthe , sun, and only
one side of the body will be sun
lighted. The planet will continue
to . be visible from several "days to
two weeks depending on whether
favorable weather conditions pre
vail.
Dr. Bauer said members of Al
pha Nu, astronomical society, will
be at the observatories to assist
interested obserirors. The observa
tories are reached through the
parking areas north of the Jordan
Soil Fertility, plots, which, may be
entered from Shortlidge road, east
-of the TUB. - '
Dr. Bauer pointed - outlhat even
though Mercury is a celestial body
of the first magnitude, it-is seldom
observed. The first three days of
this week are the best days 'of the
preseht one or two week period to
view the _ planet. The planet on
theSe days will• be at its greatest
distance from the sun so that it
remains above the, horizon for a
short time after the sun has passed
below the horizon. . '
Dr. Bauer .also said that the
planet Jupiter is now visible in
the sky. During the next few eve
nings, the planet visible between
the' sun and Mercury is Jupiter,
another celestial body' of the first
magnitude.
