(AP)- intho early hours yesterday as- tronomers and laymen began their biennial study of this neighboring planet or Mars for signs of living Martians. Saturday the path of the moon brought it close to the bri nt red star, and five days later. . rs will be closest to the earth in its two year orllit. In Augulit. 1926. Mars was about seven million miles closer than it will be this nlonih. but the plane‘. will be much higher above the hqizon this time and hence more easily tudied. ‘ Seen “th NIIIN Eye. The earth and Mars will be but 42.600.000 miles apart Oct 27, and while turn will then appear only one-hu dredth as large asthe moon. it will be easily \isible without a telescope. At midnight, Nov. 1. Mars will be "mam l No Is Th Teim toStudy ‘ ._ Mars ,For Signs ”of Life I very close to the zenith for observ- ers in the middle west. and thus “ days later observers will have to hours to study the planet. which' for that night will be "in oppogl. tion." as the astronomers say. to the sun. or on the opposite side of the earth from the sun. borne Distoverios Paulble. "it is not possible to predict that new discoveries of importance will be made this fall." said Prof. Ed. win 3. Frost. ot the Yerkes Observ. story here. I'lnlt when the weather is favorable. the planet will be care. fully‘s‘atdied. The most important results obtained in 1924 showed- that the dark spots of the planet. sup- » posed to o water or swamps, radi- ated the heat than the bright red. dish portions which are supposed to be desert areas. This has not yet been explained. "I also was shown that while the tem rature thoromigbt rise bore the freezing point of water ring the daytime. it must fall perhaps as much as 150 Fahrenheit degrees during the Martian night. Such ex. tremcs would make it diiilcult or int. po-ibic for plants and animals as are known” the earth, to on Mars." .
